Holodek7,
I think you probably got it in one.
Getting data from a solid-state FDR or CVR can be as simple as hooking it up and reading it, or as complicated as having to remove every single memory pack from a smashed-up mess, reading it individually and reconstituting the data.
The problems in the wire and tape days were different, but of the same calibre....
archae86,
Nice one.
I know what you're saying.
Let's hope this time they don't actually need to get into the chip packs.
