CAROL COSTELLO, CNN ANCHOR: Days after the crash, we're just getting word now that four Americans were killed in that Egyptian plane crash. Our Chris Burns joins us live from Sharm el-Sheikh, and that's the question of the day. Why did it take so long for this to come out?</s>CHRIS BURNS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Well, yes, Carol. And why does the U.S. have its biggest embassy in the world in Cairo and they didn't figure that out? It took them a few days to figure that out. That is the big question. Nobody really knows. But there had been reports on the wire suggesting that these four Americans could have been dual Americans, having dual passports -- perhaps Egyptian, perhaps another country. And that is the big question, though: Who were these people? And that's what officials are saying they are in the process of first identifying next of kin, first notifying them and then getting back to the media. Meanwhile, there is word that the French divers have managed to at least locate a signal that they believe came from the black box of that airplane that crashed over the weekend, and that black box will give keys over whether it was an accident or a pilot error or whatever it was. It will give voice recordings. It will give data about that airplane -- technical data. That's why it is so important for them to get to it. They think they picked up the signal through sonar, through radar, and now they're going after it with divers, with a robotic submarine. It could be hundreds and hundreds of feet down under the water over there -- Carol.</s>COSTELLO: Chris Burns reporting live from Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, this morning.
