thanks again. this doesn't make sense to me as the plane should have been higher as you indicate.
interestingly enough (though I am not a METER man) this is about the altitude included in FAA warnings for terrorist activities.
I do hope we find something out soon on the CVR.
Thanks again kbboca. 20 minutes should have easily gotten the plane into the 30's (meter =)
ps...26246.72 feet =8000 meters
(it took me awhile)
