- Daniel speaks with Bernard Loeb, Director of the Office of Aviation Safety at the National Transportation Safety Board, about the investigation into the crash yesterday of a Valujet flight near Miami. Loeb, who's in Florida working on the investigation, says the plane and the 109 people on board lie underneath a murky and muddy swath of swamp in the Everglades. The search for survivors has been called off. And the NTSB is trying to figure out how to tackle the difficult logistics of getting to the plane to remove the bodies. One scenario involves draining the swamp at the crash site.
