SOCHI, May 20 (RIA Novosti) - Russia's transportation minister, who
is leading a government commission on the May 3 crash of an Armenian
A-320 airliner, said Saturday he still hoped the plane's flight
recorders would be found.
"We are eager to find them, but have not done so yet," Igor Levitin
told journalists. He said various hi-tech equipment was being used in
the search area where signals presumed to be from the flight
recorders' radio beacons were detected.
All 113 people on board died when an Airbus A-320 operated by
Armenia's Armavia flying from the Armenian capital, Yerevan, came
down in stormy weather six kilometers (3.7 miles) from Adler airport,
which services the popular Russian resort of Sochi.
