Air France inquiry says 'no link' to speed monitors
 
 
 
 
 
 
 AFP - Friday, June 12
PARIS (AFP) - - The French body investigating last week's Air France crash said Thursday that no link had been established so far between the disaster and the speed monitors on the Airbus aircraft.

"There is as yet no link between the pitot and the causes of the accident," said a spokeswoman for the Investigation and Analysis Bureau (BEA), which is in charge of the technical side of the inquiry into the June 1 crash.
Speculation surrounding the doomed Rio to Paris flight, which crashed with the loss of 228 people on board, has focused on the Airbus A330's airspeed sensors, known as pitot probes, which may have malfunctioned.
