16. My understanding is that after the initial go around

they didn’t land for another 45 minutes or so. If they somehow lost normal power, the recorders would have died when the batteries did. Questions they need to answer include:

-Why did they remain airborne for so long after the initial event?

-Was there a total loss of generator power? Was there an attempt to start the APU? If not, why not?

-Was there an attempt to lower the gear? Using normal or emergency procedures? Same question for the flaps? Was hydraulic power available at all? Were the flight controls in manual reversion mode?

These are all questions the FDR and the CVR will be able to answer despite losing power at the end. It’s a head scratcher. I’ll wait for the data before I try to solve this one.

If all that you have is the battery that last thing you want to do is try and start the APU. Angleae Jan 11 #11
