Flight AF447, travelling Rio de Janeiro to Paris, plunged into the Atlantic Ocean during a storm, making it the deadliest crash in Air France’s aviation history.
Sadly, three doctors namely Ms Aisling Butler from Roscrea, Co. Tipperary, Ms Jane Deasy from Co. Dublin and Ms Eithne Walls from Belfast, Co. Antrim, were among those who tragically lost their lives.

Faulty speed monitoring equipment on board the plane, blocked by ice is understood to have caused an aerodynamic stall, holding the aircraft’s nose too high; was identified as being responsible for the crash.

Air France will maintains that it committed no criminal fault, which was at the root of this tragic accident.
