> Why would anyone think a two-hour buffer for something so critical would be appropriate? This sort of negligence is intentional. My guess would be it started as a requirement for analog recording and was carried over without change and purposefully left at two hours when equipment went digital. The fact that EU has a 25 hour length requirement and the FAA refuses to update their rules to extend to some reasonable length tells us everything we need to know about this situation. |

i'll bet lunch the actual recorder hardware in the airplanes is the same with the only difference being a knob set to EU rules or FAA rules.
