Learning The Ropes

They were supposed to start their trek within a few days. They were aiming to make it till the debris field but the lower debris field was going to be a tough thing to accomplish. When the lower location was 3,000 feet lower than the exact location. It was almost impossible but the urge to go home with some answers kept them going.

Blocking The Way

The first day was tiring and they decided to make their camp near the lower debris field. The routes were blocked by fallen rocks. The next day they were supposed to walk two miles to get to the lower debris and explore. They had it all planned but were still unprepared for what waited for them in the next phase.

Left Behind

When they reached the first debris, they chucked out their plans to search more attentively. Their excitement took them ahead, they found something more than just airplane pieces. A human femur was found in the wreck. This made them think of the rumor, that the plane crashed due to a bomb due to which the plane’s parts and humans’ bodies scattered to far off distances. The team was yet to make more discoveries. 

Boy’s Sneakers

They were finding more stuff like people’s clothes, different planes’ parts, broken into pieces, smashed. One of the touching things that they found between all these signs of chaos was a boy’s sneakers. They were getting touched by thinking about the stories and how the final moments of these peoples’ lives would have been. What the team didn’t forget was to focus on what they actually came here for; the orange colored black box.

Treasure In Hand

They were marking each and every place where they were finding something or the other. But they were still looking for the cockpit voice recorder. The hunt was still on. Even after looking at all the broken things, they were hoping for the recorder to be in good condition as it is specially designed in such a manner that in case of any mishappenings, it stays safe. 

Was Is It?

After several days of looking around, Isaac got his eyes on a scrap piece that had CKPT VO RCRD…compact voice recorder! written on it. Within a feet’s distance, there was a spindle of magnetic tape. They finally cracked the code! At least that’s what they thought at first and everyone believed them on this. But it wasn’t as easy as it seemed.
