Question re cvr and fdr

#1924 (permalink)

One earlier photo of the CVR was such that the label with a little magnifaction clearly spelled out solid state memory cockpit voice recorder

see

note the mangled attach points and a split in the lower orange mounting ' tray'

now look at

http://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/5...ml#post9169622

to determine how and where it was mounted compared to the FDR ( which mounted different but above and with a badly bent ' tray " in the hands of ?? as shown in

http://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/5...ml#post9165152

but no obvious ( in this view ) aluminum colored tray or attached framework.

Which is why I think that same section hit the ground with CVR still ' installed" and was taken away before press access

IMO damage to CVR and FDR was most likely from impact with ground while attached to a heavy object such as HS wing box and jackscrew brackets, etc.
