We never show street addresses, even though they appear in the public FAA file. Individual owners are shown by city and state only.
Total time and engine hours aren't public. They appear here once the owner adds logbooks.
Individual owners are shown by city and state only.
Inadequate inspection of the number 1 and 2 engine cowls by company maintenance personnel and inadequate preflight inspection by the flight engineer, resulting in unsecured cowls separating from the aircraft during takeoff. A factor was unsecured number 1 and 2 engine cowls.
