(CNN) -- Search teams have found the tail section of Air France Flight 447, two years after the jet plunged into the Atlantic Ocean, victims' families say.

Robert Soulas, whose daughter and son-in-law were killed in the 2009 crash, told CNN he and other relatives of the 228 who died were given the news at a meeting with the French air accident investigation agency (BEA) in Paris.

Agency head Jean Paul Troadec told the families the piece of wreckage included the area where the flight data recorders should be, but he could not confirm whether they had been found.

Even if the "black boxes" are recovered, experts say there is no guarantee they will still work, after so long under water.


they have found the tail of the air france plane that crashes in the 2009 on the atlantic ocean it is very interesting because maybe they will find the cause of why it crash.
