Aircraft over Paris was a Tarom A310.
Problem developed when the PF hit TOGA by mistake and instead of disconnecting the autopilot the crew fought against it. The trim ran full travel before the A/P turned itself off leaving a horribly out of trim Airbus which only just stopped short of ploughing into the suburbs.
Just like the two Air China A300-600R crashes (Nagoya/ Taipei).
