“Are you sure? Most systems give the flight crew choices so that they can best deal with whatever emergency presents itself.”

I don’t know specifically about the 777, but I did fly briefly for El Al after the IDF.

The planes automatically deployed oxygen upon pressure loss on the theory that you don’t want to depend on someone who might already be passed out to manually press the button.

Seems like a lot of effort is being launched to convince folks of the on board fire theory. Yet with a sighting over the Maldives and Boeing blurting out its ascertained the jet has landed in Pakistan, and so now we have to prep a Seal Team 6 incursion but with resources to safely remove more than 200 passengers.

Thanks for your experienced opinion. I've thought that was the intent and reasoning behind an "automatic" deployment, which certainly makes logical sense, but am not sure if that is how it's done on all aircraft nor if there's not an override of some sort on the B777.

I'm more inclined to believe that allah got another one, same as the other ones.
