FDR's are not necessarily wiped clean on shutdown as implied in an earlier post. Modern recorders can log many flights over a period of time - so chances are there will be usable data. CAL fleet is generally very new with best equipment available and maintenance is also quite good - a response to their bad safety record in the past is that management don't take any chances with these things.
