Search
crews have recovered a large tail section of the Air France jet that crashed
over the Atlantic Ocean last Monday while efforts to locate the flight data
recorders from Flight 447 continue.
Those
efforts will be stepped up when a pair of listening devices arrive from the United
States which could help pick up the signals being emitted from those “black boxes.”
The flight data recorders are programmed to send signals for 30 days and
officials believe those boxes are resting about three miles below the waters on
the ocean’s floor.
The
investigation into what caused the flight, carrying 228 people from Rio de
Janeiro to Paris on June 1, continues to concentrate on the plane’s speed
sensors. It is now believed those sensors stopped working properly just moments
before contact was lost with the plane as it entered a severe storm.
In
addition to the listening devices a French submarine is being sent to the area
to aid in the search for the plane’s wreckage.
