Wouldn't recovery of the FDR and CVR be a relatively straightforward affair? The wreckage is readily accesible. Either they are intact or destroyed, but that fact (either way) should not take this long to determine, should it?
But not a hint / word almost 2 weeks after the accident?
I understand there may be issues about the recoverability of the data, but there's not anything so far about the devices themselves. Not a word from anywhere... Just curious, nothing sinister implied!
