Transcript of Flight 587 danger moments before crash
The cockpit voice recorder reveals the final 103 seconds of American Airlines Flight 587 as turbulence struck shortly after takeoff from JFK. Pilots fought to regain lift, the tailfin broke off, and the plane crashed into a Queens neighborhood. 260 aboard and five on the ground died. Investigators focus on rudder movements and whether pilot action or system anomaly caused the tail failure.
