Wolemba James Curtis QC adanena kuti zizindikiro za kuthamanga kwa injini (EPRs) sizinapereke chidziwitso cha "core" - chifukwa deta ingapezeke pogwiritsa ntchito mtundu wina wa geji - koma inapereka "chidziwitso chowonjezera" kwa woyendetsa ndege.
"Ndauzidwa ndipo ndakhutira kuti kulephera kwa EPRs pa ndegeyi sikunapangitse kuti ndegeyi ikhale yopanda chitetezo ndipo sikunaike pangozi anthu omwe amawuluka m'ndegeyo. Zikadachitika ... ndegeyo idapitilira kwa maola angapo kuchokera ku JFK kupita ku Liverpool popanda chitetezo kapena zovuta. M’malo mwake zinaika mitolo yowonjezereka ndi chitsenderezo kwa woyendetsa ndi woyendetsa nawo limodzi kuti aŵerengere pamanja mmene injiniyo ikugwirira ntchito.”

ZOMWE MUNGACHITE PA NKHANIYI:
- “I am told and I am satisfied that the failure of the EPRs on this flight did not render the aircraft unsafe and did not in any way endanger the public who were flying on the aircraft.
- Ndege ya bajeti inalola ndege yolakwika kuti ikwaniritse ulendo wa makilomita 6,000 wozungulira kuchokera ku New York kupita ku Liverpool ndi kubwerera kunyanja ya Atlantic ngakhale akudziwa kuti pali vuto ndi oyang'anira injini ake atagwidwa ndi mphezi, khoti linamva lero.
- The pilot also had to decide whether he could fly the plane safely and it appears he had no hesitation in “perfectly properly finding that the aircraft could depart safely”.
