U.S. Investigators Arrive in China to Help Probe Fatal Plane Crash

The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) sent a seven-member team to China to assist in the investigation of the deadly crash last month of a China Eastern Airlines jetliner that killed 132.

The U.S. team of authorized representatives and technical advisers arrived Saturday to join the probe into the crash of the Boeing Co. 737-800 aircraft in southern China, according to the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC). The CAAC is leading the investigation.
