The decision will be made in November.

A decision could be taken in November at the launch of a fourth-year search of the wreckage of the Airbus A330-200 Air France , disappeared on June 1, 2009 in the Atlantic Ocean during a flight to Rio Paris. After the failure of the third season in May, the Bureau of Investigation and Analysis (BEA) has decided to return all data collected since the accident, analyze and assess which areas were covered how, with what tools etc.. . This analysis should be completed in early November. At that time, BEA and its main partenaires_ - Air France and Airbus - will have all the elements in hand to assess the technical feasibility of a fourth phase of research, a quote and make a decision. Objective: To locate the wreckage, hoping thereby to find the famous black boxes if they are not too damaged, could deliver information about the reaction of the airplane and the words in the cockpit. The financial aspect should not be an obstacle. "If that's the price of truth, we will pay," said a close case. Air France et Airbus ont déjà contribué à hauteur de 13 millions d'euros à la troisième campagne. Air France and Airbus have already contributed 13 million euros in the third season.
