New search forplane-crash clues

A new search is to take place in the Atlantic for the wreckage of the Air France Airbus that crashed mysteriously nine months ago.

Flight 447 disappeared en route from Rio de Janeiro to Paris with the loss of 228 passengers and crew. The new 10m search plan, involving US and Norwegian ships, will cover 77O square miles of sea, said Jean-Paul Troadec, chief of the French air crash investigation agency BEA.
