Just FYI, none of the ACARS alarms were actually *in* the cockpit. All the alarms were areas behind bulkheads initially and except for the lavatory smoke warning are in areas you *cannot* get access to while the aircraft is in flight, at least not without setting off all sorts of other alarms. The alarm zones are around, behind, and under the cockpit, but nothing actually *in* the cockpit while the plane’s ACARS was still working.
You are absolutely 100% correct...nothing happpend in the cockpit whatsoever was out of turn....until the systems in the E&E cpmpartment located below the cockpit failed totally, casuing th loss of the aircraft. IMHO, a bomb went off in eithr the forward left lavatory or in the E&E compartment itslf. Shucks, I dunno...maybe Obama, Clinton, & the Democrats can blame this one on “gun control”...too!!! We live in a world inhabitated by maniacs & madmen!!! And....sadly folks...the folks are asleep at the wheel!!!
