Location of Crash
On June 1, 2009, the flight disappeared in the Atlantic off the coast of Brazil with 228 crew and passengers on board while en route from Rio De Janeiro to Paris. The investigation was delayed because the black boxes were not recovered from the bottom of the ocean floor until nearly two years later. It was determined that the pitot tubes on the Airbus 330 were blocked by ice, which caused the aircraft’s autopilot to malfunction. The flight was so infamous that 60 Minutes did a feature on it in which Floyd Wisner was interviewed. The incident was referred to as the “Titanic of Air Disasters.”
