Heading: Correlation Records

Text: Lahr first contends that the government's Vaughn index fails to identify records correlating various information, such as radar, flight data recorder, and cockpit voice recorder data, with its zoom-climb conclusion. The NTSB's Vaughn index does specifically address records of the correlation of the zoom-climb calculations with these data, referring Lahr to responsive records available in the public docket or released in response to the FOIA requests, or stating that responsive documents were withheld under Exemption 5. Lahr maintains that the government's Vaughn index should identify the records of the correlations it claims to have performed. We cannot discern from this articulation what additional clarification about the available information Lahr seeks; most likely, he is complaining not about the Vaughn index, but about the NTSB's failure to release additional records of this variety. In any event, we conclude that the government's Vaughn index sufficiently identifies correlation records.
