Company comms would have been on SATCOM. I don't know if that would be covered by the CVR in the manner of normal comms, but certainly one half of the conversation would be picked up on the area...

FZ has the short field performance version. The flap load relief is standard.

As for the level off, it was predicted a number of times earlier in the thread that this could be related to the...

If the monthly ASR publication is anything to go by, FZ are reasonably well practiced at missed approaches, with several each month. As there are no corresponding ASRs to say that the engine fell...

The press and some contributors seem to be making the assumption that the "Don't do that" on the CVR corresponds to some catastrophic pilot action. I'm struggling to think what could have been...

I couldn't see if it had been mentioned yet or not, so perhaps someone can link to it, or our weather guys could shed some light on the wind changes within the altitude band we're looking at. The...

I wear a modern ANR headset, with very good passive noise reduction too, and the trim wheel is absolutely clearly audible over all the other flight deck noises. Unlikely that it could be missed (but...

The crash videos seem to be consistent with a lighting pattern indicating gear down. This may not have been a regular go around, but windshear escape, the altitude from which it started being...

The weird vertical speed gyrations aren't unheard of when the autopilot is controlling the aircraft in low level turbulence. It flies like a piece of cr@p. It wouldn't be unusual for a pilot to...

Ipilot, correct.

The news link re the CVR transcript appears to suggest that the autopilot had been re-engaged during the go around itself.

The "R" on the roster can't be taken to mean very much. Aside from asking for a particular trip, you could request a start or finish time. However, the system has a cruel sense of humour, as "Finish...
