Almost 14 years after the crash of an Air France plane between Rio de Janeiro and Paris, a verdict is expected in the lawsuit against the airline and the manufacturer Airbus. On Monday at 1:30 p.m., a Parisian court will decide whether the companies are jointly responsible for the crash that killed 228 people. They had to answer on suspicion of murder through negligence. You risk fines of up to 225,000 euros. The companies had denied responsibility.
The Air France flight AF 447 disappeared from radar screens on June 1, 2009 en route from Rio to the French capital. The Airbus A330 crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, killing 228 people.
The cause remained unclear for a long time. It was not until May 2011 that the last bodies and the flight data recorder were recovered at a depth of about 4,000 meters. 28 Germans were among the victims of the accident flight.
The legal settlement of the accident dragged on. In 2019, investigating judges dismissed a case. The crash was due to a combination of elements that had never happened before. In 2021, an appeals court ruled otherwise and ordered the trial against Airbus and Air France. The trial ran from October to early December. (SDA)
