The airport, the airline, unions and other groups filed documents with...

The airport, the airline, unions and other groups filed documents with the National Transportation Safety Board, stating their opinions about what caused the crash of Flight 5191. Here are key points raised by each group:

Crew at fault: Acknowledges that the conduct of its flight crew contributed to the crash.

Tower understaffed: The crash might have been prevented if the air traffic controller on duty had devoted all of his attention to the departing aircraft.

Bad information: Information given to flight crew about airport was "inaccurate, incomplete and of limited utility."

Changes needed: Federal Aviation Administration should find a better way to provide timely, accurate information to flight crews.
