The Transportation Safety Board of Canada has recovered the cockpit voice recorder of an aircraft that went missing after departing Bermuda for Boston last month with six people on board.

A spokesman for the TSB said today that the agency, working in tandem with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Canadian Coast Guard, also recovered the upper third section of the Gulfstream jet’s cockpit.

Both will be transported to the TSB’s engineering laboratory in Ottawa for further examination, he added.

The Canadian registered Gulfstream C100 model aircraft, bearing registration C-GRJ and operated by Latitude Air Ambulance, went missing on October 3 after departing LF Wade International Airport for Boston.

The Bermudians on board were named by police on the island as Marilyn Lavonne Bean and her son, Sergio Wayne Lottimore.

The four-strong Canadian crew were later named by the US Coast Guard as Captain Philip Gregory Childerhose, First Officer Thomas Henry Farquhar, Sarah Jane Paton, a flight nurse, and Jolene Beth Weir, a respiratory therapist.

Debris from the aircraft was found by a civilian vessel off Nantucket the following day, the US Coast Guard confirmed.

The TSB said investigations into the incident continue.
