> I’m not aware of another case of this sort of thing (relevant flight recorder data being overwritten) happening in recent years anyway.

Got me curious how often this happened.

Last example I can find of a CVR being overwritten and not just exploded/missing was in 2018 for an engine fire, similar to this where the flight had to emergency land shortly after take-off. Before that...well a lot of complete failures ("not operative at time of flight") but not many like this scenario.

Here's one in 2017 that was recorded over because they didn't report until after another flight https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Canada_Flight_759
