And your evidence for that is? In 42 hours of recorded flights (11 + the ill-fated one), NOT one time did an OPEN register. Sorry, you'll need to produce some evidence of an upgrade. Rewiring a plane is very expensive and time-consuming, so a record of a 757 recall should be easy to find.

Also, the cock pit door isn't the same door as the flight level / deck door that is recorded in the FDR.

That I cannot address (I'm a data guy). All I can speak to is the data at hand and my experience working with Warren and his code. His code just pulls the WORDs stored at specific locations in the file. To determine what they mean, a frame layout is needed. These are revised over time, so to insure you are getting the right 'interpertation' of the data, you must insure you are using the proper frame layout. Warren used the 757-3 A2 frame, but the data was stored with an earlier frame layout (most likely 757-2). All it means is that the binary 0 is a default 'placeholder', not an actual data value.

Right. I understand what your saying, no problem there friend. But in my earlier post in this thread a friend of the family flys for AA and he told me the cock pit doors and the flight level (deck doors) are two totally different values in the FDR. Thats all.

Yeah, I read that earlier among the ramblings about how this is some kind of 'smoking gun'. Why anyone listens to the junk coming out of P4T anymore is beyond me.

Don't let keyboard commandos who have an extreme bias for the govt story cloud the issue (as is most likely their intention as this issue is very damaging to the govt story). Demand verified evidence for their claims.

A link would be nice 911, thanks
Surly the "WORD" would have recorded the system malfunction ? or could the system have been ISOd at the last maintenance period, By a technician/engineer, there would be a paper trail presumably..

Come on guys.
Everyone seems to agree that the plane didn't hit the Pentagon... and the Government is covering it up.
Yet somehow you all think it's reasonable to trust data released by the government from a data recorder from the plane?
If the data the govt. releases supporting the terrorist explanation is not valid, then the data they release supporting anything else is not valid.
I'll listen to anything in the way of eyewitness testimony and physical evidence that refutes the terrorist story... but when we start using information that was released by the same people who are lying to us just because it supports what we want to believe... that's when I get off the bus.
Look at it this way.
If it was a helicopter... the data is fake.
If it was a missile... the data is fake.
If the flight was unmanned... the data is fake.
Only if the flight was hijacked does it make any sense to trust any of this data, and it seems to me that nobody here thinks it was a hijacking.

Flight attendants typically check in on pilots every 30 minutes or so, to make sure all is ok, and see if they need or want anything. Are we to believe that they made no checks at all?
You mght want to check the post on the Warren Decode thead. There are 42 hours of data and EVERY record of this parameter (one every 4 seconds) is CLOSED. Not even one OPEN value, even for the other 11 recorded flights, including the LA to DC flights. So, there is no evidence that this parameter was recorded at all and the default value of CLOSED is what we are seeing. Check with Warren and see if the raw value is 0. If so, then we are just seeing the default.
