Relatives mourn Swissair dead as sub detects recorder signal
Relatives mourn the Swissair Flight 111 victims and send wreaths at sea. A Canadian submarine reportedly detected signals from one flight recorder as divers and Navy units search the crash site off Halifax at depths of about 190 feet with a 30 foot object spotted on the seabed. Investigators released the pilots final cockpit conversations noting smoke, rapid descent, and emergency landing phrases as the heavy jet overweight for landing is discussed. Over 300 family members traveled from New York and Geneva to Peggy’s Cove for the ongoing search operation.
