Google tells me that the flight time from Toronto to Ottawa is one hour, so with a 2-hour recording capability, does this add up?
Incident on landing.
1 hour turnaround (or more)
1 hour flight to Ottawa
Ground crew enter and for an hour

3 hours from incident - even disconnection immediately may have lost the information.
Yet another reason for shelling out another 50c for a larger SD card.
