ASEAN NOW News Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 MANILA, Philippines — The black box of the ill-fated Lockheed C-130 plane that crashed in Sulu has already been found, Armed Forces of the Philippines chief of staff Cirilito Sobejana said today. Investigators at the site of the crash According to INQUIRER.net, the recovery of the black box was hoped to bring answers to questions as to what transpired in the last minutes of the C-130 flight before it missed the Sulu runway on Sunday, leaving 52 people dead. “Yes, it was found yesterday at around 11 o’ clock in the morning,” Sobejana said over Teleradyo when asked when the aircraft’s black box had already been found. “The blackbox is now with the investigators, they were inspecting and listening on the last conversation of the pilot and crew,” Sobejana added. A flight recorder is an electronic recording device placed in an aircraft for the purpose of facilitating the investigation of aviation accidents and incidents. Flight recorders are also known by the misnomer black box—they are, in fact, painted bright orange in color to aid in their recovery after accidents. https://newsinfo.inquirer.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
