       As we just reported, the report says that according to data from the flight recorder both the fuel control switches, which are normally used to switch the engines on or off when on the ground, were moved from the run to the cutoff position shortly after takeoff.  This caused both engines to lose thrust.

The preliminary report suggests this is pilot error.
