I bought and use a Kindle specifically because it has zero distractions. All you can do is read. You're not interrupted with a text, or another app's notification, or anything like that. There's no temptation to use…
Why is vertical speed in m/s? It should be in fpm.
It’s been required in the US since 2020. But, ADS-B would not have played a factor in this incident.

Every airplane type is a bit different, but typically, if the aircraft is powered then the CVR is recording. Even if it’s at the gate with nobody onboard— the CVR does not know nor care. The only way to stop the CVR…
The best part is that Boeing had EICAS, the engine indicating and crew alerting system, in the early 80s with the introduction of the 757/767. In the mid-90s, when they updated the 737 to the Next Generation, they opted…
