I'm talking about Jakarta.

Dave can you point me to the JT incident report please. I just can't find a link.

FYI - "Cleaning a connector...." is a really dangerous euphemism in Indonesia.
From pp. 7-9 Preliminary Accident Report of Lion Air PK-LQP


AOA was not touched in Jakarta, as MX suspected problem(s) laid elsewhere in the system. He fixed other things as mentioned by the CAPT of JT043: "IAS disagree & ALT disagree and Feel Diff Press Light".

Well, his fixes neither cured the problems nor made things any better for the pilots of the next sector. The rest is history.
