know how to work out what s inside of these things and this lab is one of those places. boxes from other investigations, torn apart, burned, damaged if many ways suggest a tough assignment. here they say the story of what happened is usually found. a lot of our work is with undamaged recorders and easy to download them with a memory stick. even with damaged one your recovery is good. we have always been able to retrieve the data from the ones we have received. reporter: the job requires a lot of patience. we obtain a raw data file. just ones and zeros. contains just ones and zeros. reporter: the boxes contain a wealth of information, up to 2,000 separate pieces from the data recorder alone. high-tech nothing built in to a fireproof, fireproof, shock proof shell. the analysis can be this, an
but also trains and even ships. the reality is there are few countries in the world, just a handful, who have the technical know how to work out what s inside of these things and this lab is one of those places. boxes from other investigations, torn apart, burned, damaged if many ways suggest a tough assignment. here they say the story of what happened is usually found. a lot of our work is with undamaged recorders and easy to download them with a memory stick. even with damaged one your recovery is good. we have always been able to retrieve the data from the ones we have received. reporter: the job requires a lot of patience. we obtain a raw data file. just ones and zeros. contains just ones and zeros. reporter: the boxes contain a wealth of information, up to
much as you would a usb memory stick. reporter: your success rating getting the information off is good. yes, we ve always been able to uncover the information from the recorders we ve received. reporter: he is a measured, cautious man. prerequisites for a job that involves not just knowledge but patience, lots of patience. from the flight data recorder, we obtain a raw data file. which contains just 1s and 0s. reporter: the boxes contain a wealth of information. up to 2,000 separate pieces from the data recorder alone. high technology built into a waterproof, fireproof, shock proof shell. at the end of this complex train of information and analysis can be this, an animated representation a tragedy. this one from a 2010 training flight. two dead after a simulated engine failure went wrong. a lot of the symmetry which couldn t be controlled and the aircraft ended up impacting the terrain, unfortunately.
getting the information off is good. yes, we ve been able to recover the information from the recorders we ve received. reporter: he s a measured, cautious man, prerequisites for a job that includes not just knowledge, but patience, lots of patience. we obtain a raw data file, which contains just ones and zeros. reporter: the boxes contain a wealth of information, up to 2,000 separate pieces from the data recorder alone. high technology built into a waterproof, fireproof, shockproof shell. at the end of this complex chain of information and analysis can be this, an animated representation of the tragedy. this one from a 2010 training flight, two dead after a simulated engine failure went wrong. a lot of the symmetry, which couldn t be controlled, and the aircraft ended up impacting the terrain, unfortunately. you were able to recreate this thing from the black boxes. that s right. this is based on flight data
