Poland Update: Black Boxes Recovered; Two, Not Four Landings Attempted

Contrary to initial reports, an examination of the Tu-154’s black box flight recorders revealed that the crew made two, not four attempts at landing. Three black boxes have been recovered from the wreck of the presidential plane which crashed in Smolensk on Saturday. Two flight recorders have already been examined, the third will be sent to Moscow today for examination. “We’ve got two recorders: a voice recorder and a flight parameters recorder. The Aviation Committee in Moscow has examined them and will soon publish a report on what happened on board of the plane just before the crash,” said Col. Zbigniew Rzepa, who, along with five Russian experts, is investigating the black boxes in Moscow.
