WOW!!!

Ten years and six months (bar 22 hours) of being deeply involved in this, and I didn't REALISE the aircraft even HAD a Cockpit Voice Recorder!

If only I'd KNOWN earlier!

I always thought:

I have an eye witness that saw the aircraft flying in bright sunlight.

Do you have an eye witness that saw it flying in POOR weather?

WOW!!!
