Maybe have a secondary backup recorded that jettisons itself right before or the moment of impact, then it can just be fished out of the water or whatever. At least that way you have a lot of the valuable data, even if you miss the last few seconds, I think by that stage, the data is less important anyway.

Sorry. Did not see the last post  |O

The tech to downlink the data via satelite is installed in every new plane. However, because of costs, carrier usually reduce the update rate to the lowest possible setting. One more thing starlink and cheap satelite access will hopefully change in the future.
