France says Germanwings flight audio recovered

The director of France’s aviation investigative agency says audio has been recovered from the cockpit recorder salvaged from the crash of the Germanwings plane in the Alps on Tuesday.

Remi Jouty says the material includes sound and voices, and was extracted Wednesday afternoon from the mangled black box recovered from a mountainside.

Jouty says it was too early to draw conclusions from the recording. The case of the second black box, the flight data recorder, has been found, but not its contents, the French president said minutes earlier.

Jouty says he couldn’t confirm that the case of the second black box had been recovered.
