No, that more than answers my question. Thank you, appreciate your help.Let me know if your looking for more specific information that this.
Some aircraft are equipped with recorders that save far more info that what is found in the typical black box. In addition to the obvious, they also record data from sensors that are emplaced purely for the sake of recording data. Often times maintenance can not duplicate malfunctions on the ground that occur or reoccur in the air.
