Investigators have begun analyzing data from the black boxes recovered from the Air India Boeing 787 jet that crashed earlier this month, killing 270 people.

Indian authorities have successfully extracted the black box data from the Air India flight that tragically crashed earlier this month, India’s civil aviation ministry said on Thursday. This step was long-awaited and is expected to provide crucial insights into the cause of the disaster.

Analysis of flight recorder data from the deadly Air India crash two weeks ago was underway in India after investigators successfully retrieved the information from the two black boxes on board.
