Initial analysis of the accident indicates that the observation window glass of the drainage potexploded when it was exposed to the air receiver pressure. However, all of the factors whichcontributed to the failure of the glass have not yet been established.

The investigation is ongoing and it will focus on determining why the observation glass failed,whether the drainage pot was fit for purpose and whether there were any underlying issues inrelation to the design, construction, testing, or certification of the drainage pot.
