MYSTERY not solved as yet but signs maybe promising.

Oops this is when databases come into their own.
Corelate this current 777 report if true to what AI was threatening Boeing with on Dreamliner delays.
Are AI out of real financial woes?
One guess as to who may be wooing AI.
Does Boeing care? Directly probably not, indirectly maybe.
In some quarters of the world there are unscrupulous businesses and even more unscrupulous governnments.

The recent problem is simply irresponsible and garrulous employees talking to even more irresponsible media, if as stated it affects only aircraft on the production line.

Unfortunately it doesn’t stop there though.The root of the problem is –

Any reputable organisation which Boeing has been for a long time enhances their production line and supply chain with as many quality checks as financially viable.

Some of these processes have obviously broken down and it is inevitable during one of the most prolonged economic recessions that I have experienced.

Suppliers are ‘cutting corners’ at every turn again spurrred on by attempts to save money during the same stated economic recession.

MYSTERY – It has simply vanished – and that so far is all that we can state apart from useless paranoid conspiracy theories that aren’t proven but being banded about..

Hi Sandy

Touche. Even better when you take out the word “legal” in your post #338.

The UK is following closely behind with all the lucrative overseas fees paid by rich American kids to prestigious business schools in UK.
Following graduating with their MBAs and staying here to fuel the legal system in the UK and satisfy their own personal greed at the expense of UK businesses. e.g. >£45,000.00 per year in some schools like LBS

I am not even going to speculate at this stage as to who, why or when; or if this was a deliberate human act including collaboration (e.g. to get into the secure cockpit door) OR whether a fantastic, modern and very safe aircraft simply disintegrated.

What I shall say is –
– It should not be possible to ever switch off a modern civil aircraft transponder (military aircraft must be obviously excluded for operations and stealth reasons) – the transponder must continue operating like the FDR and CVR until flight ceases completely.
– If you look at what I posted on this forum after AF447 – about real time, vital raw data transmissions being kept by airlines and manufacturers for ever (research and legal reasons) – It would supplement completely any lost for ever FDR and CVRs. Again very possible with all the technology that has been to hand for over 10 years.

Given the two aspects above the powers that require to could have by now located the missing aircraft without any difficulty whether it was on tera firma on under the ocean.

My hopes and prayers are with all the genuine pax on the flight that has been lost and their loved ones who wait for answers which aren’t there to give at present.

We wait patiently.
