NTSC Republic of Indonesia, FDR and CVR
@philipat
The NTSC in Jakarta is be able to download the data from the recorders by itself.
Look at the final report 97004 of the Sukhoi accident 2012 at page X:
Both recorders were downloaded in the NTSC facility by the NTSC experts and were assisted by the Russian experts.
There is no reason to blame the Indonesia authorities, to them Lion Air is in the focus already and Lion Air is responsible who and how is flying there aircrafts in some way. Maybe more important than rain, clouds, ts, etc.
Maybe Lion Air needs help in education or finding well educated pilots for their huge growing. Maybe to be a pilot is more than to push the buttom or maybe speech recognition in the cockpit in future is a good idea to command as we have already in modern cars.
