A French TV announced that the BEA shall release at the end of next week some informations about the AF447 crash. These informations should be about the "circumstances" and not "causes" according to what said this journalist (BFM TV)

Par ailleurs, selon l'association de proches des victimes Entraide et solidarité AF 447, les enquêteurs du BEA travaillent sous pression dans la perspective du Salon du Bourget, grand-messe de l'industrie aéronautique.

président de l'association.
