  1. The crash of Air France flight 447 from Rio to Paris last year is one of the most mysterious accidents in the history of aviation. This photo shows oxygen masks that were recovered from the sea.

  2. Airbus pilot Gerhard Hüttig (L) in an A330 flight simulator. A reconstruction of the final four minutes of Air France Flight 447 from Rio to Paris indicates that the autopilot, the automatic engine control system, and the on-board computer shut themselves off after the pencil-shaped airspeed gauges known as pitot tubes malfunctioned, presumably due to ice.

  3. An undated file photo of an Airbus A330-200 similar to the Air France plane which crashed: All 228 people aboard died in the crash.

  4. Investigators from the BEA, the French bureau leading the crash investigation, inspect debris from the crash on July 24, 2009 at the CEAT aeronautical laboratory in Toulouse, southern France. "An accident like this could happen again at any time," says Gérard Arnoux, the head of the French pilots union SPAF.
