Yet the "well-documented fact" is not the failure of an automatic activation system. Otherwise you could show us just how well-documented it is and you have consistently failed to do so.

JAIC is not the only party which cares if emergency equipment works or not. How many parties have to be in on your conspiracy?


I get that you don't get it, so let's just leave it there, shall we?
 
The JAIC is the party that concludes.

What a funny way of conceding that no such "documentation" exists. Where is the widespread industry objection to the derelict JAIC study of the beacons? Where's the industry recall? Your conclusion that others lack critical thinking skills is based solely on your disagreement as a person who is afraid to admit that she has no actual expertise or experience in these matters.
 
Where does it say they were 'manual-operation-only' buoys?

The JAIC as quoted by GlennB above makes it clear that the reason the EPIRBs did not transmit a distress signal is because they weren't properly activated.
JAIC said:
The only reason that they were found switched off is that they were not properly activated.
If the EPIRBs were automatically activated then they wouldn't need to beproperly activated, to transmit a distress signal, although I gather that even with automatic EPIRBs, the correct procedure is to manually activate them and throw them overboard, and the automatic activation is a failsafe.

Seem pretty obvious to me with bit of basic reading comprehension.
 
The JAIC concluded the lack of EPIRB signals was of no consequence ...

There is no authority which considered the non-activation to be sinister. Not just the JAIC. Your theory cannot be limited to their malfeasance alone. What you propose is literally a conspiracy.

I can discern no reasoning skills in your post.

No. “Leaving it there” would benefit only you in your attempts to avoid the actual facts of the matter. You really should provide the documentation requested and required to support your statements

No let's not. He's asking you for evidence for your claim in the form of objections to the JAIC beacon analysis from experts. If you have none, admit it and withdraw the claim. We're not just going to "leave it."

Well, if he thinks all the quality broadsheet newspapers citing maritime experts is all a load of rubbish, nothing is going to convince him.
