P2J, your point is valid and agreed with. No official conclusions to be drawn on data recovered from FR24 amateur/DYI channels. It is not designed for such purpouse neither certified.

Yet you know well, that on your A/C, the DMC feeds ADIRS data to QAR, FDR and the ADS-B out unit. Unless the transport layer - FR24 - corrupts or adjusts that data, all readouts will eventually turn out to be the same.

Case study:

A) Unofficial source "FR24" overlayed by an anonymous internet enthusiast (me) over non-purpouse built resource "Google Maps":

B) NTSB findings:
Pending

C) Unofficial source "photography" taken by a non-licenced, commercial journalist:

Now , everybody's welcome to not draw their own conslusions.
