Following up this lead, but there seems little interest in doing the right thing and retrieving the boxes. The CVR holds the last 120 minutes and would/should be very useful, for many reasons. But I have bleated long and loud about this issue as have many others. Nuff said - beer o'clock.
Kharon, I have been following the thread at Dunnunda for some time. I wish you and the other guys there the very best in your efforts to uncover the truth and to expose any alleged cover up or negligence. Considering the Air France prang location this should be a doddle with any concerted effort . 45 metres is deep and Norfolk is some distance away but far from insurmountable. 4 years is long time to survive in salt water though. Not sure how well those things are sealed. It is about 5.5 atmospheres at that depth.
Have you them directly asked about survivability?
