Bad news

Hi,

Quote:

...the National Transportation Safety Board said an examination of the data from the plane’s flight recorder indicated that the battery “did not exceed the designed voltage of 32 volts.”

Now Boeing is going to have just one option. Retrofit to Ni Cd´s. Implications:

1) Time
2) A/C specs
3) Cost, etc.

PR will be able to do a good job and industry continue to improve safety.

And what about the use of her in A380?
