Ntsb & 737

The cause of the crash of a USAir 737 in Pittsburgh two years ago remains a mystery. Today, the National Transportation Safety Board urged the Federal Aviation Administration to conduct additional research into the cause of the crash. In the meantime, NTSB recommended changes in the rudders on 737 airplanes, since rudder problems have been implicated as a possible cause of the accident. Dan Charles reports.
