CONF iture;
I really don’t see that kind of info as "irrelevant"
Also, what do you mean by "not desirable to be released" ?
Would you give an example ?
My reference to "not relevant or desirable" was my assumption that the BEA had not determined why the a/c was at some level other than the cleared level of FL350. If so, it could have been the reason they have chosen not to mention it. On the other-hand the a/c could have still been at FL350, and until that information is released, we will not know one way or the other. My only concern, is that it is sometimes not in the best interest of an investigation to promote something as fact, when there could be another reason for the position/FL being transmitted in the form that it presumably was, i.e. the data validity could be in questionable.

Hopefully, time will tell, but in the meantime anything said in this thread regarding the 02:10:34 position is speculation - nothing more.
