WAY too early analysis indicates same failure, engine as late October's incident. NTSB has yet to issue ANY findings on the earlier event that may have prevented today's tragedy. Unlike today, the debris from last October's incident hit the fuselage, did not take out a window. Combined with the recent 60 Minutes accusations that the FAA is a bit too cozy with Allegiant, it appears regulatory agencies may not be acting in the best interest of the flying public.
