Other contributions to the accident were the flight crew’s failure to monitor airspeed in relation to the rising position of the low-speed cue, the flight crew’s failure to obey sterile cockpit procedures,…

In the cockpit, all of the instruments were destroyed and all of the levers were pushed into the cockpit panel even though the throttle quadrant was damaged in the crash. However, rescue and recovery personnel were unsure if they disturbed controls and levers, and between the fire and impact damage it was inconclusive the positions of the actuators.

In order to achieve fair wages and benefits,…

businesses encourage the establishment of “open shops” (Dubofsky & McCartin 150) where employees are not required to join labor unions.
