"The statement states the "app" quit. . . and the "app. . . crashed". Not ever did it state that the iPad crashed."

But it also did not state it didn't in fact power down.

Basic logic tells us that an app crashing can manifest in multiple ways including powering down the unit for a restart. Are you claiming that you know for a fact the units did not shutdown? If so provide at least a report that states the units did not in fact do that.

But on the other hand there are reports of the unit powering down. There are NO reports that say in fact that did not happen. There are reports that say the app crashed and that is not proof of your assertion. And that Sparky is fact!

Wow! You just won't give up your irrational position. That did not say that pigs did not fly as well, Mad Dawgg. It is not American Airline's job to list everything that did not happen in the incident, their statement is intended to explain what DID happen, not what did NOT happen. SHEESH.
