The Air France flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris in June 2009 crashed due to both technical and human errors. The French Civil Aviation Safety Investigation Authority reported that the crash was initiated by the freezing of the plane's speed sensors, leading to autopilot disconnection. The pilots, caught off guard, reacted incorrectly, causing the plane to ascend rapidly. The situation escalated quickly, resulting in the tragic loss of 228 lives. The investigation led to 41 safety recommendations for the airline and Airbus, though many victims' families were dissatisfied with the findings, which were released three years post-accident.
