Thirty minutes later, at 1.07am, the vessel entered Fort McHenry Channel.
Numerous alarms were recorded on the ship’s bridge audio at 1.24am. Around the same time, the voyage data recorder (VDR) stopped recording the vessel’s system data, but was able to continue taping audio from an alternative power source.
Two minutes later at 1.26am, the VDR resumed recording the Dali’s system data and captured steering commands and orders about its rudder.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Federal investigators have now recovered the black box of the ship that crashed into Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, with the data revealing a minute-by-minute timeline of what happened in the run-up to the tragedy.
Now, some of those questions are being answered as the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has retrieved the vessel’s voyage data recorder, or black box.
The pilot also issued another high frequency radio call, reporting that the ship had lost all power and was approaching the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
A transit authority duty officer alerted two units — one on each side of the bridge — who were already on scene and ordered them to stop traffic, shutting down all lanes.
Hours later, just before 10am, agencies made a “tragic finding,” Col Roland Butler Jr of Maryland State Police said on Wednesday night.
The bodies of two victims – Alejandro Hernandez Fuentes, 35, and Dorlian Ronial Castillo Cabrera, 26 – were found inside a red pickup truck submerged in 20 feet of water.
