Initial evidence made public from the Sriwijaya Air Flight 182 accident investigation points to an extensive examination of human factors issues that may have converted a noncritical technical fault into a catastrophe, information in a preliminary report suggests. The report, released exactly one month after the Jan. 9 accident, includes no analysis and little information from the Boeing 737-500’s 370-parameter Honeywell flight data recorder (FDR), the Indonesian Nation al Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) report says. Parts of the aircraft’s cockpit voice recorder (CVR) were recovered but not its memory module, meaning investigators have very little insight on the pilots’ perception as the accident sequence unfolded.
