Quote: All the theories
about emergency returns are negated by the fact that the FO made his 'laid back'
RTT response after the transponder was disabled and, now we are told,
after the left turn.
Can we verify this, if this is the case then that's quite significant.
Only if someone has a recording or transcript of the press conference - it was in the questions, not the minister's statement.
And I thought the sense of what the respondee said was the other way around from what is being implied here now. I.e. it was consistent with innocent action.
But it was a presser and I'm not positive what the exact question was either.
