Another plane crash is being broadcasted worldwide. After the Air France 447, here is another sky high fatality, the Airbus A310 of the Yemenia Air took with it 142 passengers and 11 crew. The flight originated in Paris on an Airbus A330 and stopped in Marseille before continuing to Yemen, where the passengers and crew changed to an Airbus A310-300.
The safety of the plane now lies in question because of the claims of the French civil aviation authority that the “A310 in question was inspected in 2007 by the DGAC and they noticed a certain number of faults.” Hadji Mohamed Ali, the director of the airport at Moroni, told French radio that the plane lost radio contact with air traffic controllers five minutes before the crash. The Yemeni authorities said the bodies of at least five victims had been recovered, along with debris.
Airbus expressed its condolences to the families and friends of the crash victims and said Tuesday that it was sending a team of specialists to Comoros to provide “full technical assistance” to the authorities involved in the investigation.
