'All Of a Sudden We Have No Response' From Flight 3407
Federal investigators have recovered the "black box" voice and data recorders from the Continental Airlines commuter plane that slammed into a house outside Buffalo last night, and streaming audio of the conversation between the pilot and air traffic controllers revealed all was calm moments before the crash.
Continental Flight 3407 was approaching Buffalo Niagara International Airport at about 10:20 p.m. when it suddenly dove into the house, killing all 49 people aboard and one person in the home. Investigators have not determined what caused the crash - though authorities said the plane experienced significant icing - but whatever it was, it appears to have happened quickly and without warning.
