Ethiopian Airlines said on Saturday that DNA testing of the remains of the 157 passengers on board flight 302 may take up to six months, as it offered bereaved families charred earth from the plane crash site to bury. The return of remains — most of which are charred and fragmented — would take up to six months, the papers said, but in the meantime earth from the crash site would be given. The air accident investigation agency received the flight's data recorder and voice recorder Thursday. Family members of victims from Kenya react at the crash site. The U.S. planemaker has been working on a software upgrade for an anti-stall system and pilot displays on its fastest-selling jetliner in the wake of the deadly Lion Air crash.
