Trial over Concorde crash
A French judge has ordered US carrier Continental Airlines and five individuals to stand trial over the crash of an Air France Concorde that killed 113 people, a prosecutor's statement said yesterday.
The judge said the defendants, including the man who oversaw the development of the supersonic airliner, would be charged with involuntary manslaughter.
