Investigators have successfully extracted data from the cockpit voice recorder of the Jeju Air plane that crashed on Sunday, killing 179 people in South Korea. The second black box, the flight data recorder, is missing a crucial component, delaying further analysis. Authorities are considering factors like weather conditions and a possible bird strike in the investigation. The plane, a Boeing 737-800, crashed at Muan International Airport, causing a deadly explosion. All victims, aged between 3 and 78, have been identified. South Korea has declared a seven-day national mourning period, and Jeju Air is preparing compensation for victims’ families.
