At first, Comoros officials said there were no signs of survivors among the dead bodies floating in the choppy waters. But then rescuers found the young child.
Cox said it reminded him of the 1987 crash of Northwest Flight 255 in Detroit, Michigan in which only a 4-year-old girl survived, while 156 others died.
"This has come up before and it's where the toddler was seated (during the impact) that allowed them to survive," he said.
"It's a miracle and I'm glad ... the toddler is safe. I'm just saddened for the loss of everybody else," he added.
