- maybe I'm not expressing myself clearly. I'm looking
UP TO 0214Z, not 'next'. The point I am making is that there
MAY be a case for saying the cabin was INTACT until the descent warning, which would cast doubt on the "the fin fell off and tore open the fuselage" line. In fact, how long would it take for the
cabin to achieve 1800fpm? Could they even have been descending before the 0210Z message stream we have?
