    sky news...

    watching sky news just now, breaking news is that the AAIB are attempting to recover a body from the wreckage just now...
    thought it would be a bit late in the day now but they said currents and slowing down windows of opportunity so its taking time

    An Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) spokesperson said: "We are attempting to recover the body. If we are successful, we will consider the feasibility of recovering the aircraft wreckage.

    "Strong tidal conditions mean we can only use the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for limited periods each day and this will mean that progress is slow.

    "Regardless of the results, we will not be making a further statement until the families have been informed."

    James Hotson, AAIB spokesman, said there is no indication of when the plane will be raised.

    He said there was a possibility that the wreck would not be recovered at all, and that a decision would be made on the advice of salvage experts.

    "At the moment we are still conducting research - all I can say is that an announcement will be made when we are able to," he said.
