Birds might have

takeoff roll, a rattling was heard;
14 seconds later, a second rattle
was audible, Black said.
Twenty-three seconds later —
after “several comments suggest
ing loss of control” — the cockpit
voice recording ends, he said.
The plane’s other black box, the
flight data recorder, was recov
ered Tuesday after a 24-hour hunt
through a Queens neighborhood
staggered by a double dose of
tragedy. At least 262 people were
killed when the plane crashed.
The NTSB was also looking at
whether the engines failed after
sucking in birds, a phenomenon
that has caused severe damage to
airliners in the past. But Black
said an initial inspection of the en
gines found no evidence of such a
collision. He said a more detailed
analysis still needs to be done.
All 260 people aboard the twin
engine Airbus A300 were killed,
and five others were reported miss
ing on the ground after the fiery
crash Monday in the beachfront
Rockaway section of Queens.
Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said
262 bodies had been recovered,
along with dozens of body parts.
Authorities were working with
family members to identify re
mains through DNA.
The flight data recorder—one
of two “black boxes” aboard the
jetliner — tracks speed and the
performance of the engine and in
struments.
Authorities haven’t ruled out
sabotage or other potential causes
but said the evidence so far sug
gests it was an accident — per
haps a catastrophic mechanical
failure in the engines.
The General Electric engines
on the Airbus A300 model have
drawn close scrutiny since the
spring of 2000, when planes re
ported engine failures that sent
metal fragments flying.
However, NTSB chairman
Marion Blakey said Tuesday that
the engines were largely intact.
Large flocks of gulls, geese and
other birds abound around

At least 726 birds and other an
imals have been hit b^ aircraft at
Kennedy over the past decade, ac
cording to Federal Aviation
Administration records obtained
by The Associated Press under
the Freedom of Information Act.
Most of the incidents at
Kennedy happened at Runway
31L, where Flight 587 took off.
Pilots using that runway report
ed 139 incidents, at least 62 of
which involved gulls. Other ani
mals included barn owls, larks,
sparrows, homing pigeons, a pere
grine falcon and a jackrabbit.
For years the Port Authority
of New York and New Jersey,
Which operates the airport, has
used cannon-like noisemakers
and trained falcons to scare birds
away. The FAA also uses sharp
shooters to kill birds.
Bush order would allow terrorist trials
BY RON FOURNIER
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON - President
Bush signed an order Tuesday
that would allow the govern
ment to try people accused of
terrorism in front of a special
military commission instead of
in civilian court.
The order, signed by Bush be
fore he left for Crawford, Texas,
gives the administration another
avenue to bring the Sept. 11 ter
rorists to justice, White House
counsel Albert Gonzales said.
“This is a new tool to use
against terrorism,” he said. He
said there were precedents in
World War II and the Civil War.
Gonzales, a former Texas
Supreme Court judge who is the
president’s top lawyer, said a
military commission could have
several advantages over a civil
ian court. It’s easier to protect
the sources and methods of in
vestigators in military proceed
ings, for example, and a military
trial can be held overseas.
Gonzales said there might be
times when prosecutors feel a tri
al in America wouldn’t be safe.
The order is the latest effort by
the administration to toughen the
nation’s laws against terrorists.
Under the new order, Bush
could establish a military com
mission in the future by asking
the secretary of defense to estab
lish the rules for one.
“This does not identify by
name who should be exposed to
military justice,” Gonzales said.
“It just provides the framework
that, should the president have
findings in the future, he could”
order Secretary of Defense
Donald H. Rumsfeld to establish
such a commission. Gonzales said
there is precedent for such panels.
President Franklin Roosevelt
had World War II saboteurs tried
by military commission, as did
President Lincoln during the Civil
War, the lawyer said.
“This is a global war. To have
successful prosecutions, we might
have to give up sources and meth
ods” in a civilian court. “We don’t
want to have to do that.”
Gonzalez said: “Any individual
subject to the order would be giv
en a full and fair trial, pursuant to
the secretary of defense.”
The administration has been
considering both military and civil
ian trial options. In either scenario,
any suspect would retain rights to a
lawyer and to a trial by jury.
The military proceedings
would give the government
greater latitude, according to one
military law expert. New York at
torney Victor St. John said: “A
military court would probably
haVe more control over things like
media coverage and location.
‘There is certainly a greater sense
of security and formality that
might keep things from dissolving
into a circus.”
