Robots locate bodies and debris from Air France crash

UNDERSEA robots have located bodies, motors and a “large part” of an Air France jet that plunged into the Atlantic Ocean in 2009, in which three young Irish women died.

However, black box flight recorders haven’t yet been found, French officials said.

Victims’ families cautiously welcomed the surprise announcement that search teams have located pieces of the plane, after nearly two years of fruitless efforts to determine what caused it to crash.
