No more visual approaches at night.

FAA says no more visual approaches to 28R when 28L is closed. And two Controllers in twr until evening rush over.

Wow, I wish I would have thought of that.

CVR lost!

It is a shame the CVR can not be recovered as it is essential to understand what happened.

CVR data is lost!

I just read the NTSB official info. It did not mention the CVR. The FDR read out was provided by Canadian TSB, ergo I dare conclude the CVR was not secured.
They would have mentioned it.
