The spine-chilling final words of a pilot before his plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, killing all 228 people on board, have been revealed.<\/p>\n
On June 1, 2009, Air France Flight 447, on its way from Rio de Janeiro to Paris, crashed just four hours after takeoff. <\/p>\n
The incident took the lives of 228 people including five British nationals among the passengers.<\/p>\n
It took investigators two years to find and remove the aeroplane wreckage and its complete black box from the ocean floor some 620 miles off Brazil’s northeastern coast.<\/p>\n
The French Bureau of Enquiry and Analysis for Civil Aviation Safety (BEA) ruled that the autopilot suddenly disengaged during the flight due to the presence of ice crystals in what remains Air France’s biggest disaster to date.<\/p>\n

Amidst multiple alarms sounding, he inquired of the duo: “Er, what are you doing?”<\/p>\n Robert responded to Captain Dubois: “We’ve lost all control of the aeroplane, we don\u2019t understand anything, we’ve tried everything.”<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

No No No!”<\/p>\n Bonin briefly handed over control to Robert, but the aircraft was too near to the ground at that point to recover from the stall. The impending crash into the ocean was detected by a ground proximity warning system.<\/p>\n In reaction, Bonin reflexively drew his side-stick back, showing his horror and yelling: “We’re going to crash! This can’t be true. But what’s happening?”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
