The NTSB has recovered the last of the
Bell 206 LongRanger helicopter that went down in the Hudson River last week.
The rotor assembly, transmission and roof beam from the helicopter are now at a
secure NTSB facility for examination. Videos and photos show those parts
separated from the helicopter before the cabin and part of the tail boom fell
into the water off Jersey City, killing a Spanish family and the pilot.
"Key components of the Bell
206 L-4 helicopter that crashed into the Hudson River last week were recovered
Monday, greatly aiding the National Transportation Safety Board’s investigation
into the fatal accident," the board said in a news release. "Divers
from the New York Police Department worked with the United States Army Corps of
Engineers and the Jersey City Office of Emergency Management to find, recover
and secure the helicopter’s main rotor system, including the transmission, and
the roof beam. They also recovered the tail rotor system. The evidence
will be taken to a secure location for further examination.
