I’m afraid you didn’t read the same book than me … Asseline is the first one to take part of the blame, but when you hear that: BZ … how do you want him to react ?

Oh yes, and these guys who compile the official version communicate only what they choose to.
As an example, in the preliminary report (One month after the crash) they talk at large about the CVR but no transcript of DFDR. Just on this forum, you would find a dozen of guys able to read perfectly well such transcripts.
It could have been very interesting to have a look at the Altimeter reading to confirm it was of perfect match with RA call-out … but was-it ?
One month before, an OEB stipulated a dysfunction with Altimeter reading, and strangely, pilots had never been aware of that one!?
In the same time Asseline pretends his Altimeter was showing 100 ft on the appropriate QFE … So why not showing, at this specific time, the Altimeter reading from the DFDR ?

Crash is on the 26 of June
Judge Sengelin, who is already the second Magistrate Judge on the case because the first one left for his holidays period, realizes on the 29 that the black boxes are still under none judicial control, so naturally request them … but Administration refuses.
On the 5 of July, as nothing moved, he orders the seizure of these boxes.
He finally puts an hand on them the 6, nothing less than 10 days after the crash !
And if you pretend the technical analysis commenced only at that time, explain us how Transport Minister Mermaz was able to declare one day after the crash that the A-320 technology didn’t show any dysfunction ?

True, Civil Aviation takes care of flight recorders as early as possible.
But first, legal seals need to be affixed to them.
Has it been done ?
The answer is NO.
Official document recording serial numbers must be established.
Has it been done ?
The answer is NO.
Official document certifying the transport must be established.
Has it been done ?
The answer is NO.
Then, Administration will duplicate the information from the flight recorders, and originals will be given back to the Judicial Police Officer who delivered them.
Has it been done ?
And the answer is … NO.

And regarding “conspiracy theory” please stay on track !
It looks all too convenient to put a sticker on people who dare questioning.
