Incorrect flight number[edit]

The correct flight number is AF 178. See http://aviatechno.net/constellation/suivi_matricule.php?mat=f-bazz --VVVF (talk) 17:27, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! You appear to be right, I came to the exact same conclusion.

CFIT doesn't cause accidents[edit]

"The accident investigation established 'controlled flight into terrain (CFIT)' as the cause.[3]" This statement is unwarranted given the source. CFIT is described as a category, not the cause. It does not cite the investigation report either. CFIT does not cause accidents. CFIT is a type of accident. This is a bit like saying "head-on collision" was the cause of a certain traffic accident.
