Cargo Detractors

NPR
Published December 11, 1996 at 10:00 PM MST

The White House announced an agreement with several airlines today, under which the carriers will make sure that their cargo holds have fire detectors. The decision is a result of the ValuJet crash in the Everglades that killed 110 people last May. Investigators say the accident was caused by fire in the cargo hold. NPR's Steve Inskeep has a report.
