IT APPEARS THE COCKPIT DOOR OPENED BUT THERE WERE VERBAL INDICATIONS THAT
THERE WAS FIRE IN THE PASSENGER CABIN.. ALSO PROBLEMS OBTAINING OXYGEN.. THAT
IS THE LIMIT OF WHAT WE HAVE AT THE MOMENT.
Groups of analysts continue to try and decipher the 30 minutes of tape
which the NTSB says contains an unusual amount of cock-pit background noise.
A preliminary look also indicates there may be some gaps in the tape just
as there was in the black box found three days after the crash.
But all in all investigators say they are lucky to have any tape considering
the damage to the recorder box which the NTSB says was caused by a tremendous
penetrating force.
While investigators work on the theory that volatile oxygen generators as well
as inflated tires in the cargo hold may have played a role in the crash. They
are also looking for signs of electrical fire work continues in the everglades
to find what could be another piece of the puzzle- the planes circuit-breaker.
So far, less than 40% of the plane which went down over the Florida everglades
two weeks ago killing all 100 on board has been recovered. Tuesday the NTSB
plans on going in with heavy dredging equipment to try an scoop up piles of mud
examining them for further wreckage and clues about just what happened to

Bunions develop when bones in the foot start to separate. Surgery is

size.
It's knowing the true width of the ball of your foot and of the shoes
they should be within a half-inch of each other.
It's also knowing to buy
shoes late in the day feet swell as the day goes on. Always pick a shoe that
conforms to the shape of your foot. If a shoe doesn't fit in the store, it
won't fit later. There's no such thing as breaking in a shoe.
