Seventeen bodies recovered from a remote part of the Atlantic where an Air France jet came down a week ago were being transported by ship Monday to this Brazilian archipelago.
Those remains, and dozens of structural components from the plane also plucked from the waves, were expected to arrive in Fernando de Noronha on Tuesday.
From the archipelago, the bodies would be flown to the mainland coastal city of Recife for identification using dental records and DNA from relatives, air force spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Henry Munhoz told reporters late Sunday in Recife.
