Air France sits on key AF 447 report 

Air France has declined to make public the findings of a key report into its safety culture. 

Launched in the aftermath of the loss of Flight AF 447 – which crashed off the coast of Brazil in 2009 with the loss of 228 lives – the report examines all aspects of the airline’s safety procedures. 
Following over a year of investigations, the Independent Safety Review Team (ISRT) made a total 35 recommendations to Air France, as the airline continues to pursue its ongoing flight safety improvement process. 

These included, for example, providing more-realistic simulator sessions for recurrent pilot training. 
Air France was also encouraged to set up procedures for systematically observing pilots during actual flights – a practice already common among US, Asian and Australian carriers.
