"The country's Transportation Ministry said the black box flight recorder recovered from the crash site was missing key pieces and authorities were reviewing how to extract its data."

Another “technical error”. How convenient.

Betcha Dennis Pharaoh could have got the data, no problem.

Watching that video again they appear to land more than half way down the runway, in fact it looks like they finally "land" at the touch down markers at the other end of the runway giving them around 1500 feet.
Skill level and experience has deteriorate in the cockpit over the past 5 years with those hated boomers finally hanging up the wings.
I believe more accidents like this will happen and It will be worse in developing nations especially with low cost carriers in those areas.

I'm chocking this one up to pilot incompetence.

How do you catastrophically lose that much electrical power on a 737? Could an uncontained fan blade loss from a birdstrike go through the avionics bay or main electrical buses?
