Their is not an indication of contact after getting final clearance and the panic setting in as the plane stalls just before crashing

“Investigators said that the weather was unusually fair for foggy San Francisco. The winds were mild, too. During the descent, with their throttles set to idle, the pilots never discussed having any problems with the plane or its positioning until it was too late.
Seven seconds before the Boeing 777 struck down, a member of the flight crew made a call to increase the jet’s lagging speed, National Transportation Safety Board chief Deborah Hersman said at a briefing based on the plane’s cockpit and flight data recorders. Three seconds later came a warning that the plane was about to stall.

You act as if local contact would have been constant....it never is at SFO. There is a lot of traffic and you are never in constant contact with any of the towers.

You know better is you are a ‘mishap’ investigator and it is dishonest of you to suggest otherwise

And yet, according to you, they were asleep until just before the mishap.

Funny.

Thanks for playing.

Have a nice day.
