Okay. You still have said exactly what I said, which is that outside of court proceedings, CVR transcripts in Canada are not published for public consumption. An article of Law in Canada prevents such release outside of court proceedings. Whether The Bahamas has similar restrictions, who knows. The provision of information in this country is always problematic so I don't see this matter being any different, though such matters ought to be different.

You just repeated exactly what I said. You often comment without reading it seems. I said the CVR transcripts in Canada are not released, but the recordings from Air Traffic Control can be. The CVR and Air Traffic Control recordings are not one and the same.

Some countries, like Canada as just one example, do not permit such transcripts to be made public outside of court orders pursuant to legal actions being taken. The prohibitions in Canada on the recordings from Air Traffic Control on the other hand, are less restrictive. I don't know if we have such prohibitions here but if the media were doing its job in this regard, it would know that and should be able to tell the public the same.

The media never did any investigations with respect to this incident and they still are not doing any. They were too wrapped up in the personalities on the plane as opposed to handling a crash investigation story the way it ought to be handled.

Publius says...

Where is the full uncensored report. That is what we need to see; along with CVR transcripts and FDR information. We don't need a summary of the report's findings, that tells us nothing in detail.

Such dialog, if it exists, may be picked up on the CVR, which is one of the reasons I said we should be able to have access to those transcripts.

Publius says...

Indeed. The detailed report itself ought to be released too though, not just quotes from it or from persons at CAD. The public should also be able to get access to the transcripts from the CVR as well. I know not all countries allow it, and I know it's a pipe dream to expect ours to make it available to us.

This is such a stupid poll question.

Not to worry, he wont actually be doing anything.
