China Eastern flight MU5375: Early report into deadly crash unlikely to offer many answers, analysts believe

Beijing is expected to submit an early investigation report on Wednesday into last month’s China Eastern Airlines crash, when flight MU5735 descended sharply and slammed into a southern Chinese hillside – killing all 132 on board.

However, the report to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) – a United Nations body – is likely to only contain basic facts garnered by investigators, according to air accident specialists, and not analyses and conclusions on why the Boeing 737-800 plunged from a cruising altitude.
