A Boeing 737-800 carrying 132 people from Guangxi province in northwestern China to Guangzhou province has crashed on the 21st.
Authorities said rescue operations had been underway for more than two days and that no one on board was likely to be alive after the crash.
Authorities also said it would be difficult to determine the cause of the crash as the plane was severely damaged. The search for the plane intensified as the cause of the crash could only be determined by locating the plane’s black box.
It was reported that one of the two black boxes on board the plane was found on the 23rd. Chinese news television reported that the plane’s second black box was found today.
This information was later retrieved. China has said it will continue to work on finding a second black box.
The cause of the accident can be ascertained through the conversations of the pilots and the records of the aircraft which are recorded in the black box. Information on the cause of the plane crash is expected to be released if a second black box is found.
