it have to have been done after the sign-off, but we also have to say it is selective fire, it is only shutting off the acars, the transponder, but not the auto pilot. mike, you agree with that? well, sean, i think it is important to know the limitations of what is going on in the cockpit of a jet, so i m going to have to punt this one over. i think absolutely yes, you have the transponder in the acars units going into it. you have all sorts of feeds, what are the engines doing, the cabin pressure? you have all of these speeds going into the cockpit and so there is a high chance that a cockpit fire could destroy some of the feeds and render them

counterpoint, in almost every stage of this investigation. well, the hand flown theory, and, again, there is a theory that was very popular on the internet today by a pilot by the name of goodfellow who basically put forward the theory there was a cockpit fire and that hard left bank was an attempt to kind of take the plane back toward a runway, get it down in response to cabin depressurization. again, at the point of this investigation seems to be what we do know is that the plane seemed to ping around in some kind of intentional way in that part over the strait of malacca before it went off into where it went off which does seem to indicate there was some kind of management of the plane at that point. i think that s correct, but, again, it s very hard if you re losing, if there s an electrical fire in the bay where all of the technology is, if
