Summer News Story #1

Posted by 4Lindsey on August 21, 2009 at 5:53pm
Back in the very beginning of our summer, tragic news occurred. An Air France plane from Rio de Janeiro, going to Paris, went down somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean. Every single person on board died, including the pilot and flight attendants - a total of 228 people. However, very few families of these people tried to sue Air France.The crash happened on June 1, and although many fragments of Flight 447 were found, all searches for the black box failed. Because of this, we don’t know for sure what caused the plane to crash. However, researchers believe it may have something to do with malfunctioning speed sensors on the plane. Until they find the black boxes from Flight 447, the reason for the crash could remain a mystery.Image and video hosting by TinyPicImage and video hosting by TinyPicThe people in the above picture are not survivors. They are with the people on the boat, hooking up a line to the debris to tow it in.
