AGREE!
Good luck talking to yourself - it's the islands where it was hard to get someone up at IFR cruise altitudes between places including the US ADIZ. At that altitude from where they were coming it would take atmospheric magic, apart from which things were probably fairly busy. A CVR may be standard gear and may yield something. If so doubtless the AIB will tell us all - eventually.
