How did American Airlines Flight 587 crash?

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released its final report on the cause of American Airlines Flight 587’s crash, concluding that the crash was the result of a mechanical failure in the plane’s engines. The report found that the failure of one of the engines caused a series of events that led to the crash.

The engines had been in a state of high heat for a long period of time, which caused metal fatigue in the engine’s fan blades. This led to the fan Blades breaking off, which in turn created a pressure buildup that damaged the engine’s compressor.
