The investigators have not been able to figure out why the aircraft company EgyptAir crashed into the Mediterranean sea. Egyptian researchers are unable to extract any information from badly damaged memory chips of the black boxes.
Egypt decided to send the black box from the cockpit to France in the hope that there will be able to extract the desired data.
BEA - the French company NTSB - is one of the best in the world, the analysis of this type of equipment. In a statement issued on Thursday, EgyptAir said that the French want "to repair and remove items from the drawer." "After that the black boxes will be sent back to Cairo for data analysis in the laboratories of the Ministry of civil aviation.

The recorder, which is located in the cockpit records the sounds from the cockpit, including the conversation of the flight crew, alarms, and background noise may even help to understand what happened to the liner. Black boxes can solve the mystery of why the A320 airliner with 66 passengers on Board crashed into the Mediterranean sea during a flight from Paris to Cairo.
So far no terrorist organization has claimed responsibility for this incident. Black boxes were found when searchers plied the Mediterranean sea. Both were recovered by the crew of John Lethbridge, privately owned deep sea survey and recovery of the vehicle under contract with the government of Egypt to help in the search.
In a statement on Thursday it was said that the ship continues to look for wreckage and the remains of the dead.
