OK thought that might be the case, as that one is well known. Here is my last attempt

No video I'm affraid, but certainly sounds like a contender.

Ivan many thanks for your efforts but not that accident!

The one I am thinking about was, I believe, a normal passenger flight that eventually landed without further incident. It may well be that the cause turns out to be unrelated to EMI.

Any TP's out there able to point me towards any public-domain information on testing requirements for electromagnetic interference testing for modern aircraft?

There was an Airbus loss of control incident over Paris that I saw amateur video of on the TV news some years ago - I think that's what is being referred to.

I've not seen the video on the Internet since, and I only vaguely recall the background - was it an Air Inter aircraft? There was a little piece in 'Flight' soon after but I don't recall seeing anything more detailed.

Don't know if it was suggested that it was an EMI incident, or something else.

That's the incident but I can't find anything about it on the net. Any help or pointers appreciated!

Former Soviet - presumably Aeroflot - over Paris.

Think it was an Tarom A310 in 1994 - definitely over Paris.

Just found a report url below - might help you...

If it's the one I am thinking of, wasn't it a mode confusion problem ? The aircraft's FCS being in a different mode than they thought.

That was definately the one I was thinking about although reading through the report it doesn't look as though there was any EMI involvement. Many thanks to all for your help... Back to the drawing board again!

There is another A-320 incident. (Amateur video). Looks like some kind of PIO. Never seen any official investigation.
