The manufacturer’s manual and operation instructions should be fully respected and strictly followed by all pilots.
The Airbus A330 operating AF447 was assumably in a perfect flying condition at the end of the assembly line. Keeping that perfect condition is the responsibility of the maintenance teams. They are supposed to handle all periodic checks of the aircraft. In that respect, field remarks from the pilots should be seriously dealt with by maintenance teams. Both maintenance teams and pilots are the human tools of any airline to keep the fleet up. Definitely, we are not expecting the managing directors of AF to check every single aircraft themselves.
Having said so, we are not excluding the possibility of Airbus to be the reason behind the June crash of A330 in the Atlantic Ocean.
Regarding the idea of having a more dependable medium for the flight information, I reached the same conclusion of having a backup system on the ground on my posting of 08JUL 2009 which can be found here: http://airlinologist.blogspot.com/2009/07/missing-black-box_08.html
