Since AF447 disappeared in mid-flight on June 1, 2009, the various companies and countries involved in the accident did not stop to investigate: 228 dead are too many to sit idly. That Air France Airbus A330 en route to Rio de Janeiro and Paris could not, in any way, have vanished into thin air. Realizing that the aircraft had suffered a fatal accident and his remains had to be submerged thousands of feet deep, somewhere between South America and Africa, Brazil went to work at the Air Force and its Navy, France sent to the area on nuclear submarine Emeraude and oceanographic vessel Pourquoi Pas and the Pentagon provided specialists to try to find the wreckage.
In the days following the tragedy, there were some remains of the fuselage and up to 51 bodies. Then, on June 21, the Brazilian government ended the search. But for the chief prosecutor of the French Republic, the case of the 'affaire AF 447' could not be closed to false. So I opened a judicial investigation for manslaughter and hoped the record of Judge Sylvie Zimmerman and inquiries to the Office of Research and Analysis (BEA), which also carried out examinations in June-July 2009 and July-August 2009 ...
without much success because they say the lack of resources. But it was enough that in March 2010, leaked the news that Air France, Airbus and Thales provider would be charged with manslaughter and criminal negligence by the court in Paris for companies to engage themselves fully in the search for truth.
It was a failure in the electrical circuit that automatically reported to ground control plane to 4.14 of the day in question, before losing the connection. And according to experts, the call rate Pitot probes installed in the aircraft and delivered by the French firm Thales, suffer at high altitude freezing problems that can become disable.
Would it be enough with it so that the unit be brought and to condemn the three corporations? Of course, during these years have been considered other causes of the accident that they ascribed to turbulent weather, a dangerous flight at low altitude, speed error, negligent maintenance of equipment and even the presence among the passengers of two prominent activists relations Islamic terrorism.
Nothing to improve the hypothesis of a technical failure. So, suddenly, the first interested in finding the plane's black boxes, which is recorded as occurring in the control booth were Airbus and Air France. In any aviation company's interest to run rumors about the safety of their flights or even worse, be condemned.
Remember what happened to Pan Am in the 90 after a few attacks: the brand went down. In these circumstances, Air France and Airbus decided to scratch his pocket and start funding new scans. Since last spring, has spent 21.6 million euros in a submarine surveys that ultimately were transferred to the prestigious Whoods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), a private association based in Falmouth (Mass.), specialist in the scientific study of the oceans, which has been designed for this purpose submarines Remus 6000, small watercraft 4 meters in length can dive to 6,000 meters deep.
As explained on its website those responsible for the operation David Gallo and Mike Purcell, WHOI participated in the third trace (March-May 2010) and was decisive in this quarter (March-April 2011) which have finally found the remains of wings, cabin and some bodies. His hallucinations research vessel traveled from Seattle in March to Brazilian waters to Remus to implement the new guidelines of the BEA: register a radius of 75 kilometers around the last known position of the flight, or 10,000 square kilometers.
After an intensive search, WHOI small submarines detected signs of the plane at 3,900 feet below the surface. A second dive was carried out with a camera to confirm the presence of elements y. .. Bingo! Now Transport Minister Nathalie Kosciusco-Morizet Gala has announced that within three or four weeks to salvage the wreckage and bodies found and, most importantly, the thorough search of the essential black boxes: the FDR (flight parameters) and CVR (recording of voices and noises in the cabin).
The information contained in them, if still in good condition, is perhaps the best chance for Air France and Airbus are free to be convicted in court of Paris. Who will bear the costs of this next adventure underwater on the hunt for the committed logs AF 447? As reported yesterday by the BEA, the French state will take over this time of invoice.
