Family Of Americans Killed In Air France Crash Sue
HOUSTON (AP) The families of the two Americans killed in the crash of an Air France flight off the South American coast in June have filed a lawsuit in a Houston federal court.
The lawsuit contends that Air France and Airbus, the plane's manufacturer, knew the aircraft had defective components. Former Houston-area couple Michael and Anne Harris were two of the 228 people killed aboard Air France Flight 447 when it crashed en route from Brazil to France. Also named as defendants in the lawsuit filed Wednesday are Honeywell International Inc., Rockwell Collins Inc. and Thales SA. The three companies manufactured various components related to measuring airspeed and altitude. The suit alleges these components were defective at the time they were installed and gave the pilots incorrect information. The cause of the crash remains unclear.- Loading Comments...
