New search for crashed jet

A NEW bid to find the black box flight recorders from the Air France jet that crashed in the Atlantic two years ago will get under way next month.

France’s transport ministry says the new search will use specialised submarines and underwater robots to search an area of about 3,900 square miles for wreckage of flight 447.

The Airbus A330 disappeared on a flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris in June 2009.
