Why exactly are the BEA being tasked with this investigation, as regards FDR/CVR ? because the wife of a French diplomat was on board ?
Just because they have the expertise?
Don't remember them coming up with a very definitive explanation for Flash Airlines and its (French) pax, seeem to remember some bollocks about flap asymmetry, which helped preserve Egyptian pride.
Hope this one is a bit clearer / and quicker . . . . how many public holidays coming up soon ?
