NTSB Releases Data on DALI’s Black Box, Reveals No CCTV Footage Found, Sensors Cut Off and Turned Backed On, Voice Recorder Disrupted By Background Noise

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chair Jennifer Homendy announced the voyage data recorder known as the “black box’ was recovered from the DALI cargo ship that crashed into the Francis Scott Key bridge early Tuesday morning.

On Tuesday evening, Homendy and NTSB investigator Marcel Muise held a press conference to reveal the data on the DALI’s black box, also known as the Voyage Data Recorder (VDR).

“Wonder who made the ship turn a hard right into the bridge support. Lots of black smoke pouring out of smoke stack while the ship made that right turn. If they lost power the ship should have gone straight and no right turn possible???”

I thought they maybe went full reverse explaining the smoke.

Was a single screw ship so in reverse the rudder was kinda useless against current but I am not an expert.

Because China is behind d it and there’s a comfy position in the new Chinese colony of America if you do their bidding now. I don’t think we will have elections this year. Or any years.

According to Sky News, “An inspection of the Dali last June at a port in Chile identified a problem with the ship’s “propulsion and auxiliary machinery,” according to Equasis, a shipping information system. The deficiency involved gauges and thermometers, but the website’s online records did not elaborate.” So this was a problematic ship to begin with, probably with Band-aid type repairs just to barely get by. It was likely an accident waiting to happen.

curiouser and curiouser.

Warroom has been all over the conspiracy angle.

[Tijeras_Slim]

The ocean is full of accidents waiting to happen.

[backpacker_c]

Yep....

Confirmed...

No terrorism....

especially when there is no evidence

Pretty good review of the incident. ^^^^

[VideoDoctor]

It was likely an accident waiting to happen.

I would FULLY agree!

Considering what went down with the ship 48 hours, while it was in port, prior to hitting the bridge I'd say Your statement is most likely 100% ACCURATE.

[roving]

Speed the tape up and it looks like they did it on purpose.

[TigersEye]

Paul Joseph Watson has one of the most rational takes I've heard so far. He addresses various "conspiracy theories" and his own conclusion is that DEI is likely strongly to blame. He brings several receipts to support that. 8+ minutes.

That was just the standard, “it was not terrorism message”, or the “we may never know why he did it” message. Kind of pro forma…

[TigersEye]

Yes, the pro forma kneejerk FBI lie. It was way too early for them to know whether anything needed to be covered up but just in case something turned up they would already be on the right track.

Am I cynical and biased?
I don’t think so, I’ve seen Christopher Wray testify under oath quite a bit.

[noiseman]

I still haven’t heard an explanation of why the cargo ship lost power-not once, but twice.

Because rickety equipment never fails more than once.

[noiseman]

I think it was on purpose.

You’re right. It’s just like 9/11. I clearly remember the 9/11 terrorists getting on the radio and warning to get everyone out of the buildings because they were about to run into them. /s

[montanajoe]

I should not look at the posts after midnight ET...to many conspiracy nuts around...

[Enterprise]

I have read that it is possible to hack into the systems controlling a ship. So, and I mean this only as theoretical unless someone has better info, it was possible for someone to hack into the ship’s controls and turn this into a terrorist attack, not an “accident.” But, if it does turn out that this was a terrorist attack, would the Biden administration admit it? For them to do so, an advisement would have to go out to all cargo ships coming into or leaving U.S. waters and ports. And if that happened, we would then know this was probably a terrorist attack. My guess is still that the Biden administration would not admit it. Every agency in the government exists to cover for Biden. So, here we are.

Lots of folks paying attention to the FSKB fail. Fortunately my new supply of tinfoil just got here. My new hat has a quartz beanie on top so I’m connected to the entire galaxy.

But listen up:
Adding Mitch’s SIL and her shipping ownership to the mix is way doubling down on coinkidinkies.
Night before last when the Cali hit the FSKB was full moon. Never mind that un-docking in the middle of the night, in the dark, is a bit non-standard by itself.

As chance would have it I woke up long enough, about midnight, to do a rollover and noted the FULL MOON about 1:00 high. My bedroom window faces West so I get a good look at the moonset. The Cali hit the FSKB about 1:30 AM which would have also been right at max high tide.

A local fisherman notes that channel is dredged to 60 feet. So most of the river water goes down that channel making deader water and way more mud near the bridge pilings. It was noted early on that the Cali left its tugs behind even tho it had to clear the FSKB and one more bridge before it got to open water.

The only rational for no tugs, besides cheapness anyway, is that with a 60 foot channel and a 40 foot draft no one believed a large ship could get out of the channel and into the 30 foot water to ever hit the bridge abutments?

But this ship never got itself aligned into the proper channel from the time it un-docked, according to the published path it took. From the time it lit its engine it was pointed more to the bridge than to the channel.

The main engines on these big heavy haulers are a bit different than one might expect on a more versatile ship.
They have one bigass diesel engine, 8 or more cylinders and pack 40,000 horsepower or more. The main engine does nothing except drive the ship. Electric and hydraulic power come from auxiliary engines. It’s all about cheapness.

The main engine is hard -coupled to the prop shaft which is firmly bolted to the prop. No cluth, no disconnect. If the main engine is running the prop is turning so they do not start the engine when dockside. Their little buddy tugs move them away and line them up with the channel. To reverse the ship the main engine is shut down, then re-started in the opposite rotation. That explains the puff of black smoke the Cali kicked out when heading for the bridge. It also explains that they had a serious problem before the smoke and should have shut down.

Everyone has noted the ship had been doing 8 knots, which is a bit fast for channel chasing, but had slowed to 1.5 knots before hitting the bridge. The reason the ship slowed is because it was pushing mud already, out of the main channel. But for high tide, I don’t believe it could have gotten out of the channel.

When you see the pics from later in the day, low tide, you can see the stern is out of the water at least 10 feet. It’s plainly sitting on mud that is probly only 30 feet deep.

And Mumbles was way too quick on the draw with that pledge of Fedmoney.

There’s more but I’m going with sabotage,conspiracy, sedition etc. and I’m also wanting to round up everybody associated with that ship, waterboard their axxes, rubber hose them, find out who paid them, round up their mothers and find out why they birthed such a bunch of dumbasses?

Conspiracy theorists will go berserk now.
