Cockpit Voice Recorder Recovered From Crashed Plane

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — An investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board said the cockpit voice recorder has been recovered from the plane that crashed at Teterboro Airport Monday and will be sent to the board's Washington, D.C. headquarters for analysis.

Investigator Terry Williams was at the airport Tuesday. He said preliminary report on the crash that killed two crew members will be released in about a week, Williams said.

The twin-engine 1981 Learjet 35 crashed on approach to runway 1 at the airport at 3:30 p.m. at Kero and Commerce roads, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said. There were no passengers on board. The plane crashed into the Carlstadt Department of Public Works building at 105 Kero Road and two other buildings near the runway, Carlstadt Mayor Craig Lahullier said Monday.
