The Accident Investigation Bureau says it is very close to launching its own Flight Data Recorder/Cockpit Voice Recorder laboratory system, to be located at the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
Commissioner of AIB, Mukhtar Usman, who made this known while speaking to newsmen in Lagos on Friday, explained that the FDR/CVR laboratory will enable the bureau to download both flight recorders promptly during accident investigation. He added that the system will also have a capacity of being used for real-time flight data monitoring. Captain Usman, who said safety recommendations are vital tools for preventing accidents, informed that AIB has so far made more than 32 safety recommendations issues with 20 accepted, implemented and closed while 12 still open.
