Dozens Injured as LATAM Boeing 787 Experiences Technical Issue on Flight to New Zealand

TL;DR Summary
New Zealand's Transport Accident Investigation Commission is seizing the black boxes from a LATAM Airlines Boeing 787 after an incident that left over 50 people injured on a Sydney-Auckland flight. The Chilean authorities have opened a probe into the flight, and both New Zealand and Chilean agencies are working together on the investigation. The cause of the abrupt mid-flight drop is currently unexplained, and the black boxes will provide more information on the flight's trajectory and communications between pilots. The incident has sparked renewed debate over the length of cockpit recordings in the aviation industry.
