Deciphering of Black Boxes From Plane Crash in Moscow to Take 2-3 Days: Air Investigators

2014/10/22

MOSCOW, October 22 (RIA Novosti) – The process of deciphering the black boxes from the fatal plane crash of French oil giant Total’s CEO will take two to three days, a spokesman from the Moscow-based Interstate Aviation Committee (MAK) said Wednesday.


“Experts have already begun deciphering the data of the black boxes. The deciphering will take two to three days. That’s in regard to the flight data recorder. The amount of time needed to transcribe the voice recorder depends on the French,” the spokesman said.


He added that more time would be needed for the voice recordings because conversations on board were in French.


A Falcon 50 business jet departing for Paris crashed late Monday night at Moscow’s Vnukovo-3 Airport after hitting a snowplow during takeoff. None of the four people on board – Total CEO Christophe de Margerie and three crew members – survived in the crash.
