He said this analysis could reveal evidence of fuel contamination, which may have caused the rare and alarming simultaneous failure of both engines.
"EGT must be the starting point of any serious investigation," Muralidhar told UNI in an interview. "This parameter, when correlated with inflated air pressure, tells us everything about combustion quality, fuel efficiency, and engine health. I don't think anyone has yet highlighted this in the media or te...
