No wonder the pilots only want 30 minute recorders.

This is 2006 why can't we record the whole flight? Beepers..

Anyway NTSB accident report.

Basically it was a ferry flight (no passengers) and the captain decided to push
the regional jet to it's limits. And they screwed up the engines and could not restart them.

He ignored the flight computers warning klaxons and indicators.
