UK EXPERTS TO EXAMINE BLACK BOXES
British air accident investigators will examine the black boxes from downed Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, Prime Minister David Cameron has said.
Experts based in Farnborough in Hampshire will retrieve data from the flight recorders for "international analysis" after a request from the Dutch Government, Mr Cameron said in a tweet.
Netherlands prime minister Mark Rutte had earlier said that the first aircraft containing bodies of the 298 people killed over eastern Ukraine, which included 10 Britons, would arrive in Eindhoven tomorrow.
