A FRENCH judge in Paris filed preliminary charges of manslaughter yesterday against Air France over a 2009 crash that killed all 228 people aboard a jet that plunged into the Atlantic Ocean.
Air France vigorously protested the move, an unusual step in an emotional investigation into the worst-ever accident for France's No. 1 airline. Judge Sylvie Zimmerman filed the preliminary charges a day after doing the same against Airbus, the maker of the doomed jet and one of Europe's biggest manufacturers.
Air France Flight 447 dived into the Atlantic on June 1, 2009, amid an intense, high-altitude thunderstorm while flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris. The cause of the crash remains unclear, and may never be determined with the "black box" flight recorders still in the ocean depths.
