New Zealand’s Transport Accident Investigation Commission said it was seizing the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder of a Latam AM Airlines Boeing 787 after a mid-air incident that injured about 50 people. Local media reports describe how the aircraft’s sudden drop in altitude sent passengers flying into the roof of the cabin and then dropping back down to the floor. No one was seriously injured, but seven passengers and three crew members were taken to the hospital after the plane landed in Auckland. The New Zealand accident investigator said Chilean authorities had opened a probe, and the black boxes will provide more information on the flight’s trajectory and communications between pilots. Safety experts say most airplane accidents are caused by a cocktail of factors that need thorough investigation. Chilean authorities are looking into the incident as well, working together with the New Zealand Transport Accident Investigation Commission.
