I wrote a comment on June 1st; the day that crash occured. A few hours after the drama, Time-Magazine sent a news-break relating 8 previous accidents on Airbus A-330 and A-340 in the past two years. One accident also had occured on a Boeing-777... In Perth, Australia (flight Quantas-71) 30 peoples got seriously injured. That information mentioned a failure of a computer system called ADIRUS which could order the pilote or auto-pilot wrong maneuvers.The speed sondes blamed by the french autorities have no direct impacts, other than giving informations which the pilot or auto-pilot will analyse, then react to, accordingly if they are on position to do so...At that time, I thought that Time-Magazine own stocks in the Boeing Co (my former employer). I called a friend who is a retired pilot with 25000 flying hours; including many on that Rio-Paris line. He confirmed what I knew and added that on the North-East of Brazil there is a secret military area and a lack of communication from the ground which last nearly one and half hour. I also got a few informations on that subject at the Bourget-Air-Show. If the french experts are right concerning the fact that the plane did not break down, the sabotage is excluded, but this computer version could be the good one (peraphs that ADIRUS received a parasite signal). Naturally, for huge business'reasons, after starting on a subjective lie, it will be very difficult for the french autorities to admit their error and most of all why nothing was done after the previous incidents. Consequently financialy,Airbus and Air-France will have then, a lot to worry about. Naturally, in a World where money has a lot more importance than humans this reaction will certainly be identical in many other places. Sorry Future Generations ! Sincerely. Jean-Claude Meslin

nobody mentions the fact that the computer program for the plane was / is inadequate. the investigators know that the automatic pilot was disengaged. But they admitted that they did not know, if the computer systems diengaged it or if the the pilot disengaged it, or if environmental factors disengaged it. Air accident investigators are stakeholders in airplane computer programs. If I had to write a program for a plane I would have it in the program to send a message what caused the the auto pilot to disengage. I would fulfill that stakeholders need. For that plane and it was not fulfilled.
