1. Explain the challenges of reading broken instruments such as older analog “round gauges” that might be found on the Zonk Air accident aircraft.
2. Evaluate your observations from the presentations and course material on instruments and switches. Do they “capture” compelling and sole source evidence of the crash dynamics?
3. Is it possible to obtain accident information from any personal handheld digital device found at the scene? Explain and provide an example.
Data Capture Systems:
1. Briefly explain the differences and capabilities between various data recording/capture systems.
2. Compare and contrast the value between onboard capture systems and down-linking data systems.
3. Why are such systems usually NOT mandated on private general aviation aircraft?
