There sure seems a lack of urgency to transport the recorders to where they can be read.
What's the rush ? After all, we've been waiting for nearly two years, during which time all sorts of conspiracy theories have been launched.
The procedure had been announced even before the retrieval of the DFDR.
The presence of "Officers of the Law" has been explained and graphically pictured when the gendarmes performed the safe-keeping, recording and sealing procedure of the recorder containers.
Every phase of the recovery has been recorded / videoed and so far, nobody, except the Gendamerie officers ( acting here as appointed "officers of the law") has touched them.The video of that procedure,to me, in spite of the tragic set-up, was quite comical as the two BEA investigators there were visibly dying to lay their hands on the data !!
The idea is that the recorders will never leave official surveillance.
I'm curious as to the airplane that will fly them to Le Bourget. Will it be one of the Gael planes ?
