Panic, and shut down the wrong engine. Common mistake, although I don't suppose that it would have made much difference, in the circumstances.

From the above link;

When Liao Chien-tsung's body was found, he was still clutching the joystick, which officials believe is proof "he was still trying to save the aircraft until the last minute".

I would have thought that was stating the bleeding obvious. :doh:

Kegworth, 1989.

Basics. The aeroplane should be able to fly on one engine, and so should the pilots. For whatever reason, they stalled and crashed.

As for the avoiding the nunnery/orphanage/school/hospital - sadly as soon as that left wing drops it was curtains. Well, it was probably curtains the moment they shut down the wrong engine (if that is what happened).
