#1 "toilet drinking water supply system"
And see, I didn't even know they had one.
Maybe it's an 'India' thing.

#2 I would have guessed it was all those people hanging on the outside of the ~~train~~ plane.

Andrews said there was no convincing evidence that the tragedy was caused by pilot error.

Maybe not convincing to a defense attorney, but the flight data recorder shows the fuel control switches were flipped off and one of the pilots is heard asking the other why they cut off the fuel.
