What a fabulous technical discussion understandable by those not in the industry, like myself. Bravo.
Concerning the ACARS message sequencing. I know it might take some time to do so, and might not be worth the effort, but has anyone entertained the thought of taking the 12 (?) ACARS messages and re-sequencing them one after another to see if one particular sequence makes more sense than another, the output of which might lead to other causal factors being discovered? Or is that just not possible? Having said that, I would imagine some of those involved in the investigation might have already performed a similar task?
