SaturnV,
The references are in the Interim Report #1 on page 65, and I think you did quote them yourself earlier.
- LH507 B744 20min earlier FL350 Left Deviation by 10NM
- AF447 A332 FL350 Last Known Position 3NM Left of the Airway (That last info has still to be explicitly mentioned in a BEA Report ...)
- IB6024 A34? 12min later FL370 Right Deviation by 30NM
The job of the BEA is to analyze all of the available information, not to keep some under the bed. But that idea of the monster CB in which the AF447 crew flew blind fully could be too convenient.
I want to hear more on those Pitot tubes and how all the Pitot events have been dealt with at the company level, the manufacturer level, the regulatory authority level ?
JD-EE,
Three probes can block at a similar rate, it very unlikely, but it is not impossible, enough that the Manuals and Procedures talk about it.
How many times did we hear during the pre departure briefing : "In the very unlikely event of a depressurization or a ditching ..."
