    There was a large road sign on the side of the road which likely made the crash worse, if you check it out on street view you can see it's supported by two vertical steel I-Beams. If you look at post accident photos from AP you can see the wheel marks on the grass beginning to curve away from the wall despite the wing scraping along this wall. The right wing hit that sign posts, turning the plane hard into the wall. That also tore open the right wing tanks which was likely a larger contributor to the spray of fuel and subsequent fireball.

    The possibility of an inadvertent dual engine shut down brings back memories of a similar incident that happened with a Navy EA-6B Prowler circa 1978. The 4 place jet entered the break at 800' just ahead of the ship in preparation for trapping aboard. As the pilot banked left and retarded the power levers to idle, he inadvertently pulled both PCLs in the the idle cut off position, shutting down both J-52 P408 engines (first cousins to the JT-8D}. The power quadrant is designed so that the pilot can NOT shut down both engine at the same time. What we determined during the subsequent investigation was that there was some wear in the quadrant such that if the pilot retarded the left PCL slightly ahead of the right one, it was possible to pull both PCLs into the idle cut off detent. The first indication to the crew was engine related warning lights coming on, followed rapidly by a dark cockpit as the generators dropped off the line. I don't remember if there were 3 or 4 crewmen aboard, but all successfully ejected. It is hard to believe that two engines could simultaneously flame out from fuel contamination.

    NOT, Repeat NOT, Fuel Contamination. No way. I have 20,000 hours mostly in jets, these throttles were moved past the idle detent to IDLE CUTOFF Simultaneously. How or why is the question. If there is a retrievable CVR, therein might be found the answers. The WORLD should not have to wait a year and a half for these most important answers. I have been into Naples twice since the accident and had a chance to observe the accident site several times from the air. I also hold a CL-600 type rating, and I know from the initial position a good bit more than idle power would have been required to reach the 1000 ft marker on Runway 23.

    In our test cell, we test a variety of industrial and aviation turbine engines. Our throttle control does not have a minimum stop, so we have to be careful not to pull too far back on the lever, or we can cut off the fuel. There is so much air and fuel and power going through these engines, that cutting fuel flow for even a fraction of a second means that flame is gone. We are right next to the engine in our test cell, and are very aware when we (I) mistakenly shut down an engine. If the operator acts within a second or two, they can reset the fuel lever to idle, and restart the engine using its own rotational momentum. BUT it only works if the ignition is also switched on. If a turbine engine is starved for fuel, it's out, and the combustion chamber/area does not contain anything hot enough to ignite the fuel. A spark is needed. It's quite a trick, and an exciting moment to "save" a run, with a relight after an unwanted shutdown for us, and our operator is standing there at the controls, not also flying an aircraft. I don't know if the aircraft in question will allow energization of the igniters at any time the pilot wants, but even if it does, there's a lot going on. All within the few seconds it takes for the engine to lose too many revs, the pilot has to recognize that the engines were cut, and why, rectify that, then switch on the sparks, and also fly the plane. If the plane will not allow manual control of ignition, and only has an automated start sequence, there was nothing the crew could have done.

    A clarification on the red, Idle shutoff Levers. The thrust levers are designed such that they must be in the idle stop before engaging the red Idle Shut off lever in order to shut down the engines. Engaging the red shutoff lever when the thrust lever is not at the idle stop will prevent the thrust lever from going into shutoff. I’ve had personal experience with a thrust lever linkage disconnect on a CF-34, and believe that it is extremely unlikely that both engines’ linkages would fail at exactly the same time. Something worth looking into is exactly at what time were the flaps selected to 45 degrees, and did that time coincide with the engine failures. Also, if there was Engine Oil indications, the N2 would have been too low to recover the engine without a starter assist (way too low airspeed for a Windmill start). Another consideration is that the CF-34 3B engine does not have an auto ignition system for flameout recovery. Well explained Juan!

    At my previous airline we transitioned from Brasilias to the CRJ-200. The levers that unlock reverse thrust on the Brasilia are in nearly the same place as the idle cutoff lockout levers on the CRJ. We had a few instances of pilots moving the thrust levers to idle cut off on landing thinking they were engaging reverse thrust. I’m pretty sure we also had some engine shutdowns in cruise from pilots inadvertently shutting down engines at altitude due to one pilot having his arm behind the thrust lever as the other was pulling it back to idle. We definitely discussed this threat in training.

Interviews with pilots that flew on this account may shed some light on how pilot flying and pilot monitoring duties were conducted. In my operation (corporate) the flying pilot is always in the left seat. We swap seats but the trip captain’s responsibilities to manage the trip always remain with the trip captain. How did Hope A Jet do business? The training vendors will have vital input to the final report. The 23 year old cabin attendant is worthy of a national award IMHO.

    Wow! That’s a load of speculation to deal with for quite a long time. Hence the reason we all signed off on FOQUA, ASAP and the like. Due to the abruptness and symmetry of the dual failure it does seem like an inadvertent shutdown of both engines. Depending on how the guy sits in the right seat is what I’m thinking would discern how the PIC reaches for the flap lever. If I flew with FO’s that were way seat forward I’d probably be forced to go from behind their arm. Most of the time I would go over (in front) of their arm. But, never flew the Challenger.

    Amazing analysis Juan, at first I thought No way, but after listening to your analysis and reading the report the right seat pilot flying and left seat operating the flap handle seems the most likely scenario. Fuel contamination causing a dual engine flame out within .9 milliseconds is very unlikely and fuel starvation from the collector tank while in a banking right turn also seems highly unlikely. An accidental bump and pull into the shutdown detent seem very plausible and should constitute an immediate fix and training bulletin. Hat tip to the flight attendant, I have briefed PAX a thousand times to look outside before executing an egress and she did just that resulting in 3 lives saved.

    Thanks for this update. It's notable that there was any water at all in one of the fuel lines. The Challenge uses separate collector tanks for each engine. However both collector tanks can feed from the same tank, esp. the aux tanks. As to why both engines should shut down at almost the same time? The shut down did not occur during level cruise. It occurred around transition from downwind to base leg. The aircraft was in deceleration, a left then right turn (higher g), increasing rate of decent, and lowering flaps. If there was water in the bottom of a tank, the deceleration or attitude change may have cause a slosh to collection point, depending where it is the tank that was being used. Also note that on the Challenger, selecting flap (>20° IIRC) initiates an automatic cross feed between main tanks if there is an out of balance above the landing config limit. So if one main tank had water it could appear at both collector tanks and both engines on flap selection. Impressive flying, getting it on that road. RIP.

    I have about 8k hours in the CL65. I can tell you, the captain always reach behind the thrust levers to move the flaps when the FO is flying. That being said the thrust levers have to be in the idle position in order to lift the red tab to get them to shut off position. If the red tab is lifted while the thrust levers are slightly above idle they so called “lock” out the thrust lever to prevent inadvertent shutdown. Easier to show someone than tell them about it.. the theory of the captains arm lifting the tabs is def relative though. Something like went flaps 45 while at idle, fos fast, short approach, capts arm hits the tabs while fo making sure he’s at idle and bam… just shut down both engines.

My former airline had this happen many years back but fortunately they had enough altitude and were able to get both engines relit.

Occam's Razor. The twin oil pressure failures within a second of each other tell it all. If they were both lost that fast due to contamination, there would have to be so much visible sludge and debris in the fuel to be obvious to anyone. Nope. This was an inadvertent shutdown. Both were extremely high-hour pilots, but neither had a lot of time in that cockpit. Sad. They did their duty though. They flew it all the way to the end, and they saved their FA and passengers.

    A few things. Plane did not originate in Naples. Plane departed Fort Lauderdale, flew 2.5hr to OSU, took 350g at OSU, then flew 2.5hr to Naples. Plane also struck a road sign prior to the sound barrier wall. Some discussion out there the sign help turn the airplane towards the wall, along with the side slip. OIL PRESS ECAM message will happen if you voluntarily go to cutoff, or also if engines involuntarily simply stop. Does not require engine cutoff. Once oil pressure drops below 30psi sets off lights, all that means. Could be from cutoff, or other reason. NTSB knows how much fuel the aircraft took in Lauderdale. Also knows all ECAM messages dumped from the data recorder. For example, when engine shuts down, will get the entire Christmas tree of ECAM messages, oil press, hyd press, fuel pressure low, etc etc. I think it’s a disservice the NTSB did not include more information, despite already knowing the cause of this accident, from both the CVR and FDR. Challenger is an important aircraft in many fleets. Can’t wait 1-2 years for a final report. Need to get the information out there to concrete state whether or not there is a concerning problem for the fleet.

    As you displayed that image of the center console and thrust levers, I immediately had the same thought of the Captain reaching under the FO’s arm to move the flap lever. I flew the CRJ-200 (similar jet with similar setup) for a year and was always cognizant of the possibility of this happening and would consciously/subconsciously raise my elbow when calling for a different flap setting. But in the heat of a busy approach I could totally see the other pilot’s arm bumping or his sleeve catching those cutoff levers at exactly the wrong time. Good on them for flying it to a landing and good on the FA for evacuating the pax.

    I agree that one possibility is the inadvertently shutdown of both engines by the pilots. This is just a guess, of course, but the fact that both engines stopped working at basically the exact same time (almost exact same seconds), at least for me makes it hard to attribute it to fuel contamination.

    Not going with bad fuel tentatively. Flew too far without issue. Throttle cut off and no refire, a distinct possibility. Facts will determine the cause. They flew it to the ground. Best they could. Timing of setting the flaps, what does the show and how does it coordinate with engine cutoff/loss of oil pressure? Good presentation Juan Brown

    I’ve been flying a 604 Challenger for over 10 years now. Three questions that I have not heard the answers to are, which pilot was flying the airplane, were auto throttles being used, and did the engines fail at the same time the flaps were being selected. The pilot’s arm holding the cutoff levers up reaching for the flaps while the copilot comes to idle makes total sense. I tried it in our aircraft and took a photo that I wish I could attach here. Another scenario worth consideration is the pilot was flying the airplane and retarding the throttles while the copilot was reaching around being the cutoff levers to arm the thrust reversers for landing, which are on the left side of the throttles.

    Former Challenger pilot here. (600, 601, 604) Your Thrust Reverser Arm switches idea makes sense. With the experience level of both pilots, and a Part 135 operation, I doubt that the Right seater was the PF. My suspicion is that this inadvertent shutdown happened just after the gear was selected DN, and the before landing checklist accomplished. The rotational inertia of the N2 spool, and approximately 180 kts. would have taken time before the N2 spooled down to where the ENG OIL indications appeared (about 10-15% N2, if I recall) Safe travels!

    I would think that fuel contamination would cause an issue much earlier in flight. The fuel systems have components to circulate fuel in the wings to help with any water contamination by dispersing it in the fuel. The amount of fuel they took on in Ohio wasn’t much for that aircraft for that trip - maybe just enough to avoid ramp fees.

    They took on a fair amount of fuel in Ohio. As Juan explained in the first video, the fuel from both tanks is mixed in center tanks before heading to the engines. They managed to fly, uneventfully, almost all the way back to Naples before, suddenly, both engines quit. If the fuel was contaminated, how did it not cause an issue much earlier in the flight? Kudos to all the crew. If it wasn't for a bit of bad luck, they'd all have made it home. Condolences to the friends and families of the lost crew.

    The fact that the engines failed within 1 second of each other makes it hard to believe that it would be a fuel contamination issue, unless the fuel lines to both engines are precisely the same length and they are both drawing fuel from exactly same source. A different cause such as inadvertent engine shutdown would seem more likely.

    Even if it turns out it was not the scenario where the left seaters arm reaching for the flaps accidentally came into contact with the levers allowing engine shut down, that is something which must be addressed because that is an accident waiting to happen. ----- Thank you for specifically mentioning the flight attendant and how her training and quick thinking and action saved herself and her two passengers. I also have the highest respect for the two men on the flight deck because they flew that aircraft all the way in and gave them the chance to walk away instead of trying to keep the nose up and stalling. That was a brutal scenario for them, and they came incredibly close to pulling off the miracle landing.

    I've been saying it ever since this accident happened. I was always leery of the cutoff blockers to the thrust levers on the Learjet and CRJ jets. One time - someone managed to flame an engine out by pulling the thrust lever to idle in an aggressive manner (think slapping to idle). The controller wasn't exactly dialed in and it flamed out. The other was a worn out cutoff blocker and the thrust lever went past the gate, but we brought it back up right away, and nothing happen (of course we wrote it up).

    Fascinating analysis. I would have never thought of the mechanics behind an inadvertent engine shutdown. It is a tragedy any way you look at it - but insult would be added to injury if the engines were shut down. I would think it is reasonable to expect a 1/2 inch of water to be present in the fuel system after firefighting measures were taken especially as the fire impacted the integrity of components such as fuel tanks etc.
