A so-called black box, or recorder, was recovered from the remains of a China Eastern Airlines Boeing 737-800 aircraft that crashed into a mountain, possibly holding clues to the cause of the country’s deadliest plane crash in nearly three decades.
Two days after the tragedy, search teams have not found survivors from the flight carrying 132 people, and state media call the chance of anyone surviving “extremely small.” Authorities said Wednesday evening they had retrieved one of the plane’s two black boxes, which contains recorded information from the flight.
China Eastern Yunnan Airlines chairman Sun Shiying said at the news conference that the aircraft has been in use since June 2015, and met maintenance standards. He said the captain and two co-pilots were in good health. The captain was hired in January 2018 and had 6,709 total flight hours, the first co-pilot had 31,769 flight hours, and the second co-pilot had 556 flight hours, he said.
Chinese President Xi Jinping said in a statement that he was “shocked” to learn of the incident, according to CCTV, and ordered a full emergency response and investigation. Authorities have held off on confirming casualties as 2,000 emergency responders continued their search.
