    BLACK BOXES FROM CRASHED A-320 TO BE HANDED OVER TO AIRBUS

    When recovered from the Black Sea bottom, the cockpit voice and flight
    data recorders from the crashed A-320 liner of the Armenian air
    carrier Armavia will be handed over to the bureau of investigation
    of the aircraft-building concern Airbus, the owner of the company
    that operated the lost plane, Mikhail Bagdasarov, has told the media.

    The voice and flight data recorders have special codes known only to
    Airbus specialists, Bagdasarov said. There is a possibility Russian
    and Armenian experts will be invited to participate in retrieving
    and interpreting flight data.

    The crew of the Armenian liner was a well-trained one, the plane
    itself was in normal technical condition and it had enough fuel,
    the air carrier's owner said.

    "True, the weather in the area of Sochi's Adler airport was bad,
    but not so bad to prevent an Airbus plane from landing safely,"
    Bagdasarov said.

    Representatives of the British insurance company are arriving in
    Yerevan later on Tuesday.

    "We have been conducting negotiations with them. It looks like the
    insurer is prepared to pay compensations to the relatives of all 113
    victims of the disaster," Bagdasarov said.
