Radalt

In relation to the Airbus information release, please remember not to correlate 370 feet radalt with 370 feet above touchdown zone elevation.

The pictures of the aircraft undercarriage show three brakes ON and one brake OFF when pulled from the accident site. Do not imply that the fourth brake had failed, as there was damage to that leg on impact. Do not make any assumptions relating to brake wear indicators.
