French pilots union says not to fly Airbus 330 and 340

Here's a report from Sky News that seems to be discounting the theory that terrorists were behind the downing of Air France flight 447. It was reported here in Israel that during the night last night, two Airbus planes - a 320 and a 330 from the same series as flight 447 - had to make emergency landings.

An official from a French pilots' union has told Sky News he's recommended his members do not fly the model of Airbus involved in the Air France disaster until the speed sensors are changed. A nuclear submarine has started an underwater search for the black boxes to try and establish what caused the crash. Sky's Alistair Bunkall reports.

Let's go to the videotape.



If they don't find the black boxes, this story will be fodder for speculation and science fiction novels for years to come.
