I’ve read similar, but have no idea if what I read was true.
The claim was that both engines had fuel shutoff within a certain number of secods. The report implied it seemed intentional, but maybe i’m reading into it.
Again I don’t know if i read was garbage or not

I handicapped myself avoiding the hyped articles until facts became available. Turns out the FO was flying - c/o the preliminary report, which I never saw posted - making the captain the likely culprit to have toggle the fuel cutoff.

Given what was posted here over the weekend, the fuel cutoff switches MUST be toggled intentionally.

It was murder.

They are locking switches. You have to pull up on them to toggle them. That can't happen accidentally.
