New Questions in Air France Crash

Oct, 22 2005 - 12:20 PM


An aviation lawyer says pictures of the Air France fight that crash landed in Toronto last August suggest the plane may have been short on fuel.
The Transportation Safety Board pictures show that while the fuselage if the Airbus was almost entirely burned, the wings were virtually untouched by flames.
And, there doesn't appear to have been a major explosion.
Mary Schiavo says a lack of fuel may answer the question of why the pilot chose to land in such rainy, windy conditions.
But others say if the plane had been low on fuel, the pilot would have notified the control tower.
