I think this time the manufacturers will be pretty quick at adopting the new branding; if there’s two competing devices next to each other, one marked with “USB 3.2 Gen 2x2”, which no one understands, and other one with “USB 20Gbps” I think the latter will sell more.
I would imagine the flight recorders keep recording as long as there’s any power left in the aircraft. So if there was a bird strike as they suspect, and if that caused a dual engine failure, the recorders should still work, right? So there has to be more to the story than a simple bird strike.
