(Bloomberg) – Air-crash investigators said the cockpit voice recorder from EgyptAir Flight 804 has been retrieved from the eastern Mediterranean, four weeks after the jet disappeared from radar screens with 66 people on board.
The so-called black box was damaged but its memory unit is intact, Egypt's Ministry of Civil Aviation said in a statement Thursday. The recovery effort was led by the search vessel John Lethbridge, which had been drafted in to scour an area of seabed for the Airbus Group SE A320's remains.
