Joe Schneider

It makes me feel bad that I can't recall his name. I tried a Google
search of the newsgroup archives and didn't find it.

Google "N2992".

Nothing definitive was determined from a cause standpoint, but one
of the fuel injectors (which was used, not new) was found to be
faulty from a flow standpoint.

That is slightly misleading. If you're talking about what caused the
engine to stop producing power, there were a few likely possibilities.
If you're talking about why the aircraft crashed the way it did, the
answer was pretty clear.

For those interested, see:

for an alternative (and IMNSHO, a far more accurate) evaluation.
