How come the erratic pitching of the plane to 45K’ and down to 25K’ and so forth and on per ATC transponder only popping out now? I thought the transponders were turned off after co-pilot said “good night?” Normally pilots would say “good night” or “good day” or “roger, so long” if they sign off from departure control frequency after radar separation to air route traffic control center frequency.

Someday, I predict, we will hear a quiet news item that the climb to 45,000 ft was an artifact and didn’t really happen.
