Aridi: ET409 crash search operations in final stage

Lebanon’s Minister of Transportation and Public Works Ghazi al-Aridi told Future TV on Sunday that search operations for the Ethiopian ET409 plane crash have entered their final stage. He added that nearly all of the plane’s fuselage had been located.
Aridi said the flight data recorder (FDR) has already been recovered and the the other black box , cockpit voice recorder (CVR), will be soon retrieved .
Aridi cautioned that finding the so called black boxes does not mean that investigations will be quickly concluded, he said, adding that analyzing the boxes’ content requires some time. The boxes will be shipped to Paris today on a private jet for analysis

  1. It is a good news, at least they have retrieved the black box. What about the remaining bodies? Are they still strap at their seat belt as they predicted earlier?

    Hopefully, the Black Box analysis will be transparent!

  2. I can see some inconsistencies as to the depth at which the blackboxed initially located (1300 meters under water). They should also explain this to the public along with the issues of bodies which are not yet recovered. After all,it seems that the plane is fragemented in to pieces and emptied the most of the passangers in to the frigid water. I am so eager to hear what caused such horrific crash, what sort of fault or what magnitude of thunder can cause this. It is rediculous. RIP to the victims.
