Ten bucks says that they’ll try to blame it on Boeing...sending its stock down 20%.

Yup. This is pure pilot error but who reads the story, just the headline..It has nothing to do with Boeing but the sensationalism drives the headline.

Willing to bet they skipped takeoff checklist items and did not drop leading edge nor flaps thus increasing take-off roll.

A Boeing or any swept winged aircraft should be flown off the runway.
