Investigators took photos and measurements at the charred wreckage of a Continental Airlines jet Monday, searching for clues about why the plane veered off a runway and skidded into a shallow ravine.
The twin-engine Boeing 737-500 still sat in a shallow, snow-covered ravine where it came to rest after its aborted takeoff Saturday at Denver International Airport.
The latest accident forced the 115 passengers and crew aboard Flight 1404 to flee through emergency exits as the plane burned.
The jet had shed its left engine and both main landing gears.
The entire right side of the jet was burned, and melted plastic from overhead compartments dripped onto the seats.
