The first audio clip to be released following last week’s EgyptAir Flight 804 crash involves the pilot, who said everything was OK about two hours before it went down.

In mundane recordings, the pilots of the plane checked in with air traffic controllers in Athens while they were flying over Switzerland. They even joked a bit before the pilot signed off, saying, “Good night.”
