SÃO PAULO — A Dutch ship towing a high- tech U.S. Navy listening device was set to troll the Atlantic on Sunday in search of data and voice recorders from the Air France jet that crashed with 228 people on board.
The Towed Pinger Locator, or TPL, will try to detect emergency audio beacons, or pings, emitted by Flight 447’s black boxes. Another Dutch ship carrying a second listening device is scheduled to arrive no later than this morning, officials said.
Brazilian authorities Sunday revised the number of bodies they have retrieved downward, from 44 to 43, after a recount. Another six have been pulled from the Atlantic by French ships.
