Flight recorder, eventually to the United States...Voice recording is in the process of creating a file.

One of the black boxes that will reveal the cause of the plane disaster, the flight recorder, failed to extract information and ended up in the United States.

The voice recording device has started to restore the extracted information to a voice file, and the accident investigation committee expects the results to be released by tomorrow.

Reporter Kim Ki-bong reports.

Fortunately, the black box avoided major damage in the tail of the aircraft!

But out of the two black boxes, the flight recorder is
Information extraction is blocked due to one small missing connector
.

Connectors connecting two units of the device are not replaceable with new parts

[Yoo Kyung-soo / Aviation Safety Policy Officer: It is not a connector that can be replaced by any kind of equipment, but a connector that requires special work]

In the last 25 hours, the accident investigation committee eventually decided to send the device to the U.S. Transportation Safety Board (TSB) amid a sense of crisis that could bury the aircraft's flight data.

It is unclear whether data can be extracted in the United States, but even if it is restored, a time delay is inevitable depending on the situation of the NTSB.

[Joo Jong-wan / Director of Aviation Policy: The time is expected to be estimated by looking at the state or amount of data inside. At this point, it is difficult to predict in advance.]

Fortunately, another black box, the voice recorder, is
The extraction of information
has been completed and you have started playing it as a voice file.

It looks like it'll take about two days
It is predicted that even if only the
voice record is fully played, it will be a big key to revealing the circumstances of the accident.

[Jeong Yoon-sik, professor of Catholic Kwandong University: Everything is recorded regardless of whether you hold the microphone key or not, and the noise from the cockpit, warning sound from the cockpit, even turning on and off the switch, and everything about the pilot's conversation is recorded.]

However, since multilateral participants, whose position varies greatly depending on the results of the investigation, it will not be easy to disclose immediately even if the contents are revealed in the voice record.
