The Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) and GPS units from the helicopter Mi-8AMT with registration RA-22312 are now at the IAC laboratory in Moscow. The data from all three units were downloaded last night. The CVR contains about 25 minutes of good quality sound recordings from the flight. Only one of the two GPS units have recorded data about the last flight path. Further analysis will give a valuable contribution to understanding the accident.
