We have a problem.

Now that the boxes have finally been recovered, much to the ATSB's displeasure, who will "supervise" the downloading and analysis ?

I would not "normally" suggest this, but GIVEN THE "HISTORY" AND "FLAVOURS" of this PANTOMIME OF AN INVESTIGATION over the last SIX years, the core troubling issue that we have here, is "whether or not we can trust" the ATSB.

Can we trust the ATSB to produce a full, honest and unbiased analysis from the boxes ?
Only a naive fool would be so trusting at this point in proceedings.

We all know the ATSB never "wanted" the boxes to ever see sunlight.
There are nagging questions as to "why".

Many months ago, (2nd February 2015) I speculated that a possible answer could be encapsulated in the phrase, "There is no evidence your honour".

Perhaps there is some potentially "unhelpful evidence", that as far as the ATSB, ASA and CASA are concerned, would very much be best left in the murky depths.

If there is any "unhelpful evidence", how can we be sure that it will ever see the light of day, even now ?

We may need to adopt the French system of dual investigations, both legal and technical.

Perhaps the Federal Police should be INVITED to "sit in on this one", purely in the interests of "investigative probity", of course.

Perhaps the miniscule should so "direct" ?
