Readout preparation of the FDR from the crashed airplane

Can't really tell what suits least: this topic to post that video, or the accompanying music in it...

From link on Pinto's FlightGear Discord server:
Autopilots worldwide will go on a strike in the first week of december. The WAU (World Autopilot Union) announced in a autonomously written press release.

Thin Air Today (November 18, 2019), Autopilots will temporarily stop working in worldwide strike.
