Agree. I don't see anything on the aircraft log that indicates a part was replaced. It seems like I recently read that the AoA sensor was replaced on flight prior to flight immediately before the accident flight.

Edit: Now I'm scratching my head. I was trying to verify where I read that the AoA sensor wasn't replaced on the DPS-CGK flight shown on the log page, but on a prior flight, and it seems I read it in a post you made.

Could it have been an issue with the mounting . Or something else beyond this . Could the sensor that was replaced be a different part type to the origional . Just asking those of better understanding .
