Authorities hope for vital clues as contents of cockpit recorder are converted into audio format
Investigators in South Korea have extracted data from one of two “black boxes” retrieved from a Jeju Air plane that crashed shortly after landing on Sunday, killing all but two of the 181 people aboard.
The country’s deputy minister for civil aviation, Joo Jong-wan, said initial data had been retrieved from the Boeing 737-800’s cockpit voice recorder, adding that the contents were being converted into audio format.
