17. 02:03:44 (Bonin) The inter-tropical convergence... look, we're in it, between 'Salpu'
and 'Tasil.' And then, look, we're right in it...
02:05:55 (Robert) Yes, let's call them in the back, to let them know...
02:05:59 (FA) Yes? Marilyn.
02:06:04 (Bonin) Yes, Marilyn, it's Pierre up front... Listen, in 2 minutes, we're going
to be getting into an area where things are going to be moving around
a little bit more than now. You'll want to take care.
02:06:13 (FA) Okay, we should sit down then?
02:06:15 (Bonin) Well, I think that's not a bad idea. Give your friends a heads-up.
02:06:18 (FA) Yeah, okay, I'll tell the others in the back. Thanks a lot.
02:06:19 (Bonin) I'll call you back as soon as we're out of it.

20. 02:06:50 (Bonin) Let's go for the anti-icing system. It's better than nothing.
02:07:00 (Bonin) We seem to be at the end of the cloud layer, it might be okay.
02:08:03 (Robert) You can possibly pull it a little to the left.
02:08:05 (Bonin) You can possibly pull it a little to the left. We're agreed that we're in

probably, a different crew should have done

this crew and most crews were not prepared to
face such an event.

approach, a human/technology system that
has to work together. This involves aircraft
design and certification, training and human
factors. If you look at the human factors
alone, then you're missing half or two-thirds
of the total system failure
