Second plane crash black box found

Thursday, 27 Mar, 2022 0

The second black box flight recorder of the crashed China Eastern jetliner has been located.

It comes as authorities finally confirmed there were no survivors among the 132 people onboard.

The first flight recorder was discovered last Wednesday and is still being analysed in Beijing for clues to the cause of the crash.

The second black box is the one containing data such as speed and altitude.

The Boeing 737-800 crashed into a mountainside in Guangxi province.

The plane dropped more than 20,000 feet in less than two minutes.

It was the first mass fatality air accident in China in over a decade.

It could still take several weeks for investigators to understand what caused the crash.

The Chinese Civil Aviation Administration (CAAC) confirmed there were no survivors and nearly all remains have been identified through DNA.

All onboard were Chinese nationals.
