What Dali’s black box recorder tells us about Baltimore bridge hit
Written by Black Hot Fire Network on March 28, 2024
NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy told reporters at the meeting that even though Dali had a relatively new VDR model, and the VDR is popularly compared with an aircraft's black box recorder, the contents of a ship’s VDR is much less complete than that of an aircraft black box. The NTSB has long wanted more data and information to be recorded in the system, she said.
NTSB is looking for other sources of information in the engine room to supplement the VDR data and get a fuller picture of engineering systems, power distribution, and engine data . . .
