In a two-month trial, prosecutors accused the airline of failing to train their pilots in how to respond to a system malfunction, as it is believed the sensors had iced over and caused the crash.
The Irish Times reported that when the final "not guilty" verdict was read, families of those who had been killed in the crash could be heard crying from the gallery.

Air France has paid compensation to the victim's families and there have been dramatic changes in the airline over regulations and pilot training.
