Investigators of the Dutch Safety Board, which manages an international investigation into the plane crash, will deliver the flight recorders for deciphering to Farnborough in England on a Belgian plane.
The UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB), located in Farnborough, is one of the two institutions in Europe with special equipment for deciphering the “black boxes”. Such equipment is also available in France.
