MH370 crash: Cockpit voice recorder won't help unravel mystery


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370’s cockpit voice recorder will not yield any answers about the critical moment the plane devia­ted from its Beijing-bound route as the voice data have been erased due to the CVR’s two-hour recording cycle.

This means that investigators might never fully solve the mystery of MH370 as it would be impossible to know what went on in the cockpit after air traffic control lost contact with the aircraft at the border of Malaysia-Vietnam airspace.
