Years earlier, she had asked a boss if he would let his children fly on a plane with the litany of flaws and non-conformances he was urging her to “pencil-whip”: “Cindy, none of these planes are staying in America, they’re all going overseas,” he retorted, much to her horror.
Yep, another Boeing mystery crash where everything stopped working at once.
I’m kinda suspicious that the critical moments weren’t actually missing from Jeju Air’s black boxes when they were delivered to the US.
The 787 has backup power for black boxes while the 737 uses an outdated design that does not, so there shouldn’t be missing data hopefully.
Good. They might be more intact, too, given how it sounds like this plane landed.
I don’t know much about the deep details of either plane, but as I understand it there is a backup power system on the 737, albeit not one for the black boxes themselves. The indications were it just failed as well, at the same time.
