MH17 crash: Britain confirms receiving two black boxes

London: Britain said on Wednesday it had taken delivery of two black box flight recorders recovered from MH17, the Malaysian passenger jet downed over eastern Ukraine last week. “We can confirm that the two black boxes from MH17 have been delivered by the Dutch Safety Board to the Air Accidents Investigation Branch at Farnborough for download,” a statement from the Department for Transport said.

The data will then be sent to international investigators for analysis. Reuters
