A team of researchers from the US National Transportation Security Administration (NTSB) was on the scene yesterday, the federal agency announced. The black boxes of the MD-82 have been recovered and will be studied. The researchers, who have already discussed with the airport rescue teams, will be able to enter the aircraft after first emptying of the remaining fuel.
“The aircraft crashed into its left main landing gear on arrival at runway 9, derailed and stalled in a grassy area,” the NTSB said. A fire broke out “on the right side” of the plane, the service added in a statement.
