One thing I have noticed, or missed, is that with all these 'leaks' and speculations, there is no mention of why AF447 flew into the CBs, and appeared to make a last minute adjustment to their course. I wonder if that will be revealed tomorrow?
Also with all the past accidents involving pitot tube, gung-ho pilots, flying into storms, computer failures, isn't it time for manufacturers to produce aircraft and softwares that can prevent the constant repetition of these accidents?
