The plane originally was supposed to land at Naval Air Station Jacksonville to the west into the wind, as is typical for aircrafts. But the pilots requested to instead land to the east on a different runway, NTSB Vice Chairman Bruce Landsberg said Sunday. Preliminary information from the flight data recorder shows that the plane touched down at 163 knots and then had a ground speed of 178 knots, which translates to a 15-knot tailwind."The pilots requested to change the active runway.
But the cockpit voice recorder remains in the tail of the plane and is underwater, Landsberg said Sunday. That voice recorder will give investigators evidence of what the crew was thinking, internal discussions and how they discussed the situation with air traffic control. Landsberg said he was confident that the recorder was not damaged in the incident.
