You made up a ridiculous claim and were shown to be making it up.
You and your conspiracies get sillier and sillier.
Your answer to 911 black boxes relies on “fact checked data” right from Op Mockingbird’s GOOGLE search mouth.
Seems smart to me. We do have the occasional problem that results in “dead plane flying” (usually oxygen leak + autopilot). And really in this modern world hard drives are cheap, storage space isn’t a challenge. And as for the “previous crew”, well don’t do anything unprofessional and you won’t care.
That weird post made zero sense, I don’t even know what it meant.
See post 19, you post nonsense and live in a fantasy world.
Remember how that math works. 2nd place doesn’t mean it happens often, just that it happened the 2nd most often. If there’s 3 plane crashes all year, 2 are equipment failure and 1 is suicide by pilot that makes sbp 2nd most often.
Does the black box continue to record after the crash? So if it isn’t recovered until 23 hours after the crash, it could all be erased?
You are shameless, you just ignore post 19, no wonder you fall for nonsense, you work at it.
Is there something really wrong with that?
During an incident investigation, don't they look at prior maintenance records, turnover logs, pilot logs, etc.?
Wouldn't you want investigators to know if a prior crew encountered a similar incident and failed to note it in the logs for the next crew or submit a maintenance request?
Or maybe I've been watching too much Air Disasters on the Smithsonian Channel. I used to do some root cause analysis at my company, and that show is a primer on the investigative process.

I didn’t ignore it. I clearly placed it in the category of Op. Mockingbird. Now, will *you* comment on that Op? Started after WW2, and has grown and grown, still in force.
You are rambling and ignoring what should have greatly embarrassed you.
Well, I think there is either legislation or maybe it is my particular company labor agreement that stipulates that nothing unrelated to any NTSB accident or incident report can be used against the pilots.
I could be wrong, and I am about to retire so I care even less, but that is what I recall.
What is a black box and how does it work?

Just about everyone has heard of the “black box” on an airplane. The term tends to have strong associations because most of the time when we hear about the black box it’s as a result of an air crash. Here’s a look at how they work.
“Black box” is a common term in popular use but within the industry it is generally referred to as an electronic flight data recorder. That can describe either the CVR (Cockpit Voice Recorder) or the FDR (Flight Data Recorder), or a combination of both. A number of modern black boxes house everything within one unit. Either way, for redundancy’s sake, every aircraft has to have at least two onboard. And they do exactly what they say on the tin: these boxes are essentially heavily fortified hard drives that record everything about a flight on an ongoing basis.

I can imagine what he writes on his flight plan form...
Didn’t take long for this post to go downhill.
