From Times Staff and Wire Reports
The right engine of the Comair twin-engine turboprop that crashed in a snowstorm had been replaced five days earlier during regularly scheduled maintenance, the company said. Comair Inc. spokeswoman Meghan Glynn said the replacement was not a factor in the crash. All 29 people aboard Comair Flight 3272 died last week when the Embraer 120 nose-dived into a field 18 miles from Detroit Metropolitan Airport.
