Sean Archuleta, who was riding in the jump seat, were killed in the Feb. 23, 2019, crash near Anahuac. The reaction to the slightly abnormal situation was the problem, NTSB investigator Bill English said. Investigators also said that it appears several red flags were missed by an agent who conducted a screening of Aska for Atlas Air. They also said they believe it was inappropriate for Atlas Air to rely solely on the screening agent to catch those problems.
