Hi,
jcjeant, regarding short data recorders it'd be nice if the plane was also wired with a 256 gigabyte auxiliary solid state disk on the FDR and CVR that recorded simultaneously with the survivable disk. That should be moderately recoverable in some crashes and would also have upset (and normal) data virtually for the full life of the plane.
You forget to open the "sarcastic mode" ... this can help some who don't clever follow this thread
I suppose it's lesson learned for AF and they are presently installing the system you advocate ...
How do they not have thought of earlier ? ... it is a mystery that adds to all those already mentioned in this thread
