Foreword

This document has been prepared on the basis of the initial information

gathered during the investigation, without any analysis and - given the

continuing absence of wreckage, the flight recorders, radar tracks and

direct testimony - without any description of the circumstances of the

accident. Some of the points covered may evolve with time. Nothing in the

presentation of this interim report or in the points that are raised therein

should be interpreted as an indication of the orientation or conclusions of

the investigation.

In accordance with Annex 13 to the Convention on International Civil

Aviation, with EC directive 94/56 and with the French Civil Aviation Code,

the investigation is not conducted in such a way as to apportion blame

or to assess individual or collective responsibility. The sole objective is

to draw lessons from this occurrence which may help to prevent future

accidents or incidents

SPECIAL FOREWORD TO ENGLISH EDITION

This interim report has been translated and published by the BEA to

make its reading easier for English-speaking people. As accurate as the

translation may be, the original text in French should be considered as the

work of reference.
