“The rule gives us a year to determine the final report. In this case, it’s less than a year because of the condition in which the aircraft was abandoned, and because it was burned, it was almost impossible to save it. So it’s a little more complicated for technicians to analyze the different parts of the aircraft, so it may take about 12 months,” Castillo said.

official Expanded reasons Why is it taking so much time to determine the cause.

“For example, there is a lot of analysis of environmental issues. You have to ask the National Weather Service for information to know what the weather conditions were on the day of the accident. The analysis is done before and after that day. Then there is the human factors analysis, that is, the captain and the co-pilot. The whole human issue will be investigated there. In addition, mechanical issues are probably the most complicated factor, because if the researchers determine that there is an engine that must be sent to a laboratory abroad, then we will spend a lot of time there. After that, all this information is put together and the investigators start to draw conclusions and issue a final report,” added Don Marco.

In response to these statements, the Director-General of the Civil Aviation Department explained that these statements should be respected, but he said that this requires Technical and scientific reports.

“We respect their statements and their criteria, but this is what the investigation is about, to determine the cause of the accident. We as an authority, and I as a director, cannot propose a criterion. We will wait for the final report, a technical-scientific report, to be able to determine what the cause was,” concluded the director of the Civil Aviation Authority, Marco Castillo.
