The accident ramp agent’s behavior at the time of the accident demonstrated that her judgment was deficient. Given her identified medical and toxicological cognitive risk factors, the ramp agent’s deficient judgment was likely due to cognitive impairment. The extent to which individual cognitive risk factors, such as the ramp agent’s multiple sclerosis and cannabis use, contributed to this impairment could not be determined based on the available evidence.” NTSB final report page 3 of 15

The report also notes that Edwards took part in a safety “huddle” 10 minutes before the fatal incident, which addressed safety around the engine. Just prior to the deadly incident, Edwards was seen on video going to the airplane’s tail to put down a safety cone at which point she stumbled after approaching the jet-blast area behind the engine. She also failed to place a safety cone at the wingtip, which was part of her responsibilities. The video then showed Edwards walking directly in front of the engine while there were signals to indicate dangers were still active.
