EgyptAir black boxes could yet provide clues
- 8 years ago
The flight data recorder of crashed EgyptAir flight MS804 has been successfully repaired, according to Egyptian authorities, as French investigators open a manslaughter investigation into how the jet headed from Paris to Cairo came down.
The plane’s two recorders – one containing flight data, the other carrying voice recordings from the flight deck – were handed over to French experts after they were recovered damaged from the wreckage in the Mediterranean and Egyptian investigators could not download their contents.
Egyptian officials Monday said the “black boxes” from EgyptAir Flight 804 have arrived in France to undergo repairs as investigators struggle to figure out why the plane crashed more than a month ago.
