Rescuers working in the area of last week’s crash of the Armenian
Airlines A-320 jet’s that occurred off the shores of Russian Black
Sea beach city of Sochi have refined the data on coordinates of the
airliner’s flight recorders that are lying on the seabed about 500
meters deep and roughly six kilometers away from the coast.

“We can say now with a big degree of confidence the flight recorders
of the A-20 jet that crashed May 3 are indeed lying on the seabed,”
a source at the operative staff coordinating support to the rescue
operation said.

An additional telemetric research has been scheduled for Friday.

Early data indicates the flight recorders are found at the depth
of 496 meters and the distance between them is about five meters,
the source said.
