Everybody involved in the FAA and NTSB at the time... something strongly suggested by the official report on the crash, and this in spite of all the watering down as requested by the State Department and backed by the very top as in "We must not antagonize the Egyptians who are among our few allies in that part of the world". Btw, all the MS Airbus orders at the time are attributable to those findings and it took years before MS went back to Boeing with 777s.
