aviation safety council releasing basically a readout of the cockpit voice recorder. this aircraft has been designed to be flown safely on one engine. the emergency began about 37 seconds after take off. the first issue came about with the number two engine that is the right engine. it is supposed to minimize drag. it prevented the engine from giving any thrust to the plane. there was a flame out warning but they say the engines
12:05 am
