CVR Transcript: FD1 + FD2 Availability

Hello,

A
FPV barely visibe
yes, at # 847 above.

but Nr3 Interim Report En CVR transcript (p 89 to 100) points this:

FD 1 and 2 become --------- FD 1 and 2 become ------------ Comment
unavailable at ---------------- Available again at
=========================================================
2:10:08 ------------------------------ 2:10:17 -------------------------HDG & ALT CRZ modes
2:10:21 ------------------------------ 2:10:26 -------------------------HDG & VS modes
2:10:36 ------------------------------ 2:10:42 -------------------------Transitionally available (how ?)
2:10:45 (may be ?) -------------- 2:10:47 -------------------------HDG & VS modes
2:11:40 ------------------------------- 2:12:52 -------------------------HDG & VS modes
2:12:58 ------------------------------- 2:13:57 -------------------------Temporary (that is to say ?)

During more than half the time of the four minutes event, the two FD were not available. A graphic would give an easier visualization.
I have done it, but unfortunatly i don't know how to insert the picture.
Who will again dare to say that the pilots were stupid?
