If data from device is recovered, it could give crucial details about what pilots said as they lost control of aircraft

Investigators said Monday they have recovered the cockpit voice recorder from a business jet that plummeted from the sky amid severe weather in Florida eight days earlier, killing all nine people on board.

The recorder was found at the site where the Bahamas-bound Learjet slammed into the ground in Palm Beach county, Florida, and erupted in a fireball 1 November, the National Transportation Safety Board said in a statement posted to social media.
