reported overnight Tuesday and Wednesday, citing anonymous sources with knowledge of the investigation. Turning it off would be in accordance with guidance issued by Boeing and the FAA after the crash of the same model of the plane operated by Lion Air on October 29. However, the pilots reportedly turned the system back on after failing to lift the plane’s nose using manual controls, raising questions about the soundness of the recommended emergency procedures.
However, the speed of the Ethiopian plane was reportedly increasing, which should act to elevate the nose, Goglia says, one of many shreds of information, like the leaks, that he says raise questions that can’t be answered without a detailed timeline based on the voice and flight data recorders of what the pilots were doing and saying. “There’s more at play here than what’s in the articles,” Goglia says. “Until we get the timelines for what they did, you can’t draw a lot of conclusions from it.
