2. The pilots used the power of the engines to control the plane, which could only turn to the right and had no brakes or flaps.
3. The plane crashed on the runway, broke apart and caught fire, but 185 out of 296 people on board survived.
4. The investigation revealed that a manufacturing defect caused a microscopic crack in the fan disk of the engine, which destroyed the hydraulic lines in the tail cone.
5. The accident led to changes in the inspection and design of hydraulic systems in all airplanes, and the pilots' actions are used as examples of crisis management and crew resource management.
