TL;DR Summary

The flight data recorder of a U.S. Navy P-8A plane that overshot a runway and ended up in the water near Honolulu has been recovered, as the Navy's Aircraft Mishap Board investigates the cause of the accident. A hydrographic survey has been conducted to assess the plane's structural integrity and the impact on the coral and marine environment. Concerns have been raised about potential damage to the coral reef and the presence of fuel or chemicals in the area. The Navy has implemented containment measures and is monitoring the site 24/7. No injuries were reported, and another crew has arrived to assume homeland defense coverage.
