It may be worth reminding discussants of two things.

First, I see no reason to suppose that any FDR or CVR data will be made public. Neither would I necessarily expect that the ICAO-required final report will be made public. Let's see first if the required 30-day report is made public.

Second, participants in any of the investigations (Annex 13, or insurer's, or ...) will be under non-disclosure and are very unlikely to participate in any way in public discussion if they value their jobs and life savings. Missives from anyone claiming here that they *know* what went on can most wisely be read with this in mind.

Finally, anyone in favor of the tail-struck-first scenario could please explain the puzzle I posed a few days ago, namely how one can get an AoA of 16°+descent path angle on an A330 at approach-like speeds. So far, no one has tried.
