CAIRO — Egyptian investigators said Saturday they would be able to access the cockpit voice recordings of the EgyptAir flight that crashed in May despite damage to the black box. The flight from Paris to Cairo crashed into the Mediterranean on May 19, killing all 66 people on board. The bulk of the wreckage is believed to be at a depth of about 3,000 meters (9,800 feet). “Test results were satisfactory as (they) enabled the reading of the recorders of the CVR memory unit,” they added. EgyptAir Flight 804 disappeared from radar at about 2:45 a.m. local time between the Greek island of Crete and the Egyptian coast.
