Air France's safety record is worse than what it seems. Some accidents do not pop up in the statistics because:
1. there were no fatalities
and
2. the aircraft was not scrapped, but eventually returned to service.

You will only be able to find any information on certain incidents/accidents when you specifically know what you are looking for.

Notable examples:
- Runway overrun on 13th June 1995 at Delhi Airport


- Tahiti aquaplaning 12th september 1993


- Serious incident during takeoff run at Lagos, Nigeria, 11 jan 2010
