Toronto - Canadian investigators said yesterday the flight data recorder retrieved from the wreckage of Swissair Flight 111 may not reveal any information on what happened in the final minutes before the plane crashed.

The Canadian Transportation Safety Board chief investigator, Mr Vic Gerden, said the flight data recorder, which was found on Sunday, was intact but that early analysis showed it had not recorded any information below 10,000 feet (3,048 metres).
