Last year, a french report was leaked to the public in which the report stated that the accident was the result of a
cockpit fire that caused by an oxygen leak combustion that was ignited by a pilot's cigarette. The problem with this is that the report hasn't been officialy verified.
Further adding to the problem is the fact that Egypt refuses to release a final report, the BEA can't release reports due to ICAO guidelines and the fact that the leaked report is not public nor has it been verified.
So do we keep that the accident was caused by the current summary "Cockpit fire caused by an oxygen leak combustion ignited by pilot's cigarette" or do we change it as there is no "official" final report? 103.145.130.210 (talk) 05:38, 2 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
Just to note that both current sources, The Telegraph and Al Jazeera], both considered WP:RS do not use the phrase "likely caused by". They both bluntly say "caused by". The Telegraph says this: "But an official investigation has concluded that it was caused by a cigarette being smoked in the cockpit that inadvertently ignited oxygen leaking from an emergency gas mask."

Neither alternative images are better than the existing one. Ther needs to be a compelling significant reason to change an image, and such a reason has not been given. Maungapohatu (talk) 03:14, 27 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
