Air France and Airbus found guilty of manslaughter over 2009 plane crash

27d 14h ago by lemmy.world/u/fne8w2ah in aviation from www.bbc.com

Another great article, what did they do to be guilty?

The Wikipedia cites inconsistent airspeed data and miscommunication between the pilots but reading through the safety report from the crash that it cites for this it seems like it was mostly the pilots miscommunications and over corrections that caused issues. The auto pilot and auto thrust kicked off and the pilots scrambled to figure out what was up and did a few miss inputs there and then the plane started warning of a stall and they didnt properly address the stall conditions
