My guess? One of the Pilots neglected to turn on the "igniters" when on approach. When on short final, and
reduced jet engine speed, the slowed (and cooling) turbines have a tendency to stall operation unless the "igniters" are
activated to induce combustion.

That, or another case of DEI in action.

Could be. Although isn’t that part of the landing checklist?

Good point. Forgot about that tendency for jet engines to flame out at idle and cooling off. I just found this...

New jets are often equipped with a system called FADEC, or Full Authority Digital Engine Control. It's essentially a computer system that controls specific engine parameters. FADEC will turn on ignition automatically in many of the cases listed above, taking some workload off the pilots. It also adds the benefit of turning on the ignition during stall warnings, when takeoff thrust is set, during approach idle, or when the engine experiences a surge.
