takata, think the point being made was that there was a loss of link integrity for a short while as per Svarin which may correlate to a manoeuvre
Interesting ?
Now more : both PRIM1 and SEC1 messages appear right after the "possible loss of signal" window.
Interesting ?
On another point, if the last position report was at 2:10.x when the a/c was already 3nm west of track then since there is at least another 4 minutes of flight based on acars, and at cruise speed this translates to a lot of ground, the a/c must either already be decelerating or the timeline for height and speed loss gets tighter AND the ground covered has to be negated in a subsequent manoeuvre.
