Airbus crash: 'No evidence of terror attack'

Neither the pilots’ conversations nor any background noises in the cockpit of the doomed American Airlines Flight 587 showed evidence that a terrorist attack or sabotage brought down the plane, the head of the US National Transportation Safety Board has said.

A complete transcript of the cockpit voice recorder, including background noises, showed no indication of a bomb or explosion, NTSB chairwoman Marion Blakey said in an interview.
