In the aftermath of a Ukrainian airliner crash, Iranian authorities are reportedly not handing over the plane’s black box to Boeing.
On Wednesday, after the plane took off in Tehran, the airliner crashed in Iran, killing 176 people — including 82 Iranians, 63 Canadians, as well as others from different countries — leaving no survivors, as IJR reported.
The plane is a Boeing 737-800NG aircraft, that just had its last maintenance on Jan. 6.
However, authorities in Iran are reportedly not wanting to give the plane’s black box to the manufacturer, which is Boeing, according to Reuters, who quoted Ali Abedzadeh, the head of Tehran’s civil aviation organization. Abedzadeh is also unsure what country the black box will be sent to.
Both of the black boxes for the plane were found. The black box provides flight data and cockpit voice recordings.
