themselves, and declared that the engineer's help was not needed. Captain Waxtan then questioned First Officer Rathore if one of the ground crews had tampered with the panel near the aircraft's rear door, and subsequently stated that "the guy" had problems and was enraged at them. Prior to the flight's departure to Abuja, both flight crews had some sort of feud by refusing the ground engineers' request to use the rear door for passengers' embarkation, thus the Captain's suspicion on the matter. Nevertheless, the crew decided to continue the flight to Lagos. They didn't think that the problem was a serious matter and hence concluded that they didn't need to divert the aircraft to the nearest airport, even though there were differences in the EPR value on the engines and the lack of response from the left engine, which was operating at idle power despite its throttle setting. They then contacted Lagos ATC to request a descent clearance. During the entire conversation, there was not a single mention on the inoperative left engine. They also didn't check the emergency checklist for inoperative engine. As the flight was cleared to descent, Captain Waxtan ordered First Officer Rathore to increase the aircraft's rate of descent, but First Officer Rathore declined, stating that the gradual descent was far more effective in maintaining their height. Flight 0992 was then cleared by Lagos for an approach to Runway 18L. Again, the crew didn't issue a distress call or even mention the malfunctioning left engine. The flight continued to approach Lagos. As it was confirmed that there was no response from the left engine, Captain Waxtan took over the control from First Officer Rathore and became the pilot flying. The right engine, at the time, was still operative and thus the crew thought that it was still safe to continue the flight to Lagos. Captain Waxtan could be heard saying "Okay, this one is good for us so far." Second engine malfunction The aircraft became nearer to Lagos and the crew became increasingly concerned as they started to receive a series of heading and altitude radar vectors from Lagos ATC. They shifted through multiple checklists for the approach to Lagos. However, they didn't read the single-engine landing checklist that had been provided for them. Their altitude was a bit higher than usual at the time and Captain Waxtan decided to increase the rate of descent to
