New Zealand authorities were able to remove the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder from the Boeing 787-9 that experienced a “technical event” on Monday’s LATAM Airlines Flight 800, a spokesman for New Zealand’s transport safety body told CNN on Wednesday.

The Boeing jet remains in Auckland and will also be assessed by the Chilean investigators. The union representing the flight’s crew said on Wednesday that it would conduct an investigation, we well.
