I do not know what the relation is to the FAA. I think they react to the manufacturers recomendations when there is no definitive evidence, no black boxes, no definative evidence. To say the aircraft went down vertically defies the evidence, especially since the black boxes have not been found. Rick;

I'm wondering how would that square with wreckage scattered 50 miles apart. Will be interesting to hear how they reached this conclusion.

After all, these airplanes have a considerable presence in US flagged fleets. I'm wondering why we're not hearing from them more....?? Chip,
