BEIJING (AFP) - Investigators in China are searching for clues as to the cause of a plane crash that killed 54 people, but after more than 24 hours of efforts they have still not located the crucial black box.
China woke up to its worst aviation disaster in more than two years Sunday, when a regional jet plowed into a lake shortly after take-off from Baotou in northern Inner Mongolia region, apparently after a mid-air explosion.
