The boyfriend of a friend of mine at uni works at that airport. He rang her and told us he saw it happen and that at about 11am there was already 3 dead before the news stations (Sky news at least) were reporting deaths. He also said it was attempting a second landing having failed it's first attempt and circling back although this isn't mentioned anywhere on an news I've seen.

I see...Then this can explain why there was no fire..because there was no fuel..
Then can we say that the cause is the global economical crisis?
If the crash was because of lack of fuel, it will be a scandal i guess.

You guys really need to think about what you are saying.
How would not putting enough fuel in save them money? If they over fill the fuel tanks that just means they will need to put less in for the next trip. The excess doesn't get drained out at the end of each flight and chucked down a drain.
Common sense please before throwing wild accusations.
