(VOVworld) - A noise was heard in the last second of the CVR recording of the Russian plane recently downed in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, said Ayman al-Muqaddam, head of a committee investigating the crash. Speaking at a news conference at the Egyptian Ministry of Civil Aviation in Cairo on Saturday, Ayman al-Muqaddam said it was too soon to make any conclusions on the cause of the crash on October 31 that killed all 224 passengers and crew on board. He added that experts are collecting information and doing more analysis on that noise and will not bypass any assumptions on this tragedy.
