WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will support a Chinese probe into the crash of a China Eastern Airlines Boeing 737-800 jet, a spokesman for the NTSB said on Tuesday.

“The NTSB is in contact with the CAAC investigator-in-charge and we will support their investigation with our technical advisors from the Federal Aviation Administration, Boeing and CFM in all ways necessary,” the NTSB said. The CAAC is the Civil Aviation Administration of China.
