Recovery workers on Saturday found the "black box" flight data recorder from the wreckage of Pakistan's worst-ever plane crash, though its condition was unclear, a government official said. The discovery could shed light on why the Airblue flight crashed Wednesday into
the hills overlooking the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, killing all 152 people onboard.
The "black box" was found following a difficult recovery effort hampered by rain, mud and a lack of proper roads in the heavily forested Margalla Hills. It has been handed to aviation officials, said Ramzan Sajid, a spokesman for the Capital Development Authority, a government agency. (AP)
