Air France plane goes crazy moments before landing in Paris Business

French aviation safety officials described it as a “serious incident” after recovering data on the aborted landing.

Officials from the Bureau d’Enquêtes et d’Analyses pour la Sécurité de l’Aviation Civile said officials had a notepad: “Flight control instability on final, go-around, hard controls, flight path oscillations flight.”

AirLive.net first reported the aborted landing. A spokesperson told the website: “Air France confirms that the crew of flight AF011 on April 4, 2022 from New York JFK to Paris-CDG aborted their landing sequence and performed a go-around due to a technical incident during the approach.

“The crew got the situation under control and landed the plane normally after a second approach. Air France understands and regrets the discomfort felt by customers.

Almost 13 years ago, Air France Flight 447 from Rio de Janeiro to Paris stalled and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, killing all 288 passengers and crew.

The remains of the Airbus A330 were finally found on the ocean floor by investigators three years later.

In 2000, an Air France Concorde crashed shortly after takeoff from Charles de Gaulle airport with 109 fatalities. The supersonic passenger plane was later found to have struck debris on the runway, causing a tire to burst which then threw parts of its landing gear into fuel tanks under its left wing.
