P.S. On the other hand, the data on the disc does take time to ‘read’. Even in the best of conditions, the data has to be downloaded, and the data has to be ‘decoded’ and then the information has to be analyzed. The ‘analysis’ can take weeks. The ‘voice’ recordings are easier to ‘process’ and quicker, but it helps to be able to match up the ‘voice’ and the ‘data’ first.
At any rate, they are really only saying it will take longer because of the damage.
I certainly can’t accuse them of stalling just because they don’t release the information until the analysis is complete.
The plane stalled?
