Not seen anything on here about this. Generally fascinated by this kind of thing. Bit morbid, but I do like to find out what happened. The interesting thing about this one is that it’s basically a new 737 MAX and the pilots were quite experienced and didn’t mention at all in their radio communication about having problems...just that they wanted to turn back.
The FR24 traces seem to show something significant happening just 2-3 minutes in...then they level off as I guess they’re supposed to if they’re wanting to come back? But it never made it and crashed into the sea.
They’ve found a black box...not sure if it’s the flight recorder or the voice recorder though.
Does it raise the question again about how this sort of “back up” data is recorded? I guess it could be technically possible to have all this beamed off via satellite, but the costs?
