Possible cause of Air France 447 crash

Possible cause of Air France 447 crash. Air France 447 May Have Stalled on Sensors. Air France Flight 447’s flight recordings show the aircraft slowed to a stall after its airspeed sensors failed while the two co-pilots were at the controls, two people with knowledge of the investigation said.

The chief pilot, Captain Marc Dubois, was not in the cockpit when the Airbus A330’s sensors malfunctioned, causing the autopilot to disengage over the Atlantic Ocean, said the people, who declined to be identified because the investigation is still confidential.
