With less flights its harder than it used to be.

RR,
I figure on take off he definitely would have been sucked in.
Taxiing? That is a heck of a dent and I still think he would have been sucked in, unless the jet was turning into him, but it said he was on the runway..
I guess with as few flights as there are the pilot could have been spoiling up as he turned onto the runway...


Dent is on the outside of the ring cowling not the leading edge. Also a major dent on the side cowling. I seriously doubt he was ingested into the engine. The fact that they found the body also supports no ingestion. One less methican for taxpayers to support.
