A Brazilian search team recovers debris from the Air France plane that crashed over the Atlantic

The Brazilian military released photos of divers securing the tail fin, which was painted with Air France colours.

Meanwhile the US is sending two sophisticated listening devices to help search for black boxes from the plane.

On Monday, officials revised downwards the number of bodies confirmed to have been found from 17 to 16.

The Brazilian military said there had been a counting error.

Bodies and debris from the plane have been found some 1,000km (600 miles) north-east of Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha islands, where the Airbus disappeared a week ago with 228 people on board.
