Pilot error likely contributed to the fatal crash of a FlyDubai plane in southern Russia last month, an initial report by investigators indicated.

A drone came within 16 feet of a potentially catastrophic collision with an Air France jet landing at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport.

The Germanwings pilot who crashed his plane in March repeatedly set the jet on collision course with the ground on a flight earlier that day in what may have been a dry run for his suicide bid.

The crash of Air Algerie MD-83 in Mali last July was triggered by the icing of pressure probes after pilots failed to turn on anti-icing systems.

U.S. carriers must have two people on the flight-deck at all times, ensuring that someone is at hand in the event of an emergency or aberrant action concerning the lone pilot.

The crash is likely to be the most fatal in at least three decades in France.

The aircraft that disappeared Dec. 28 with 162 people on board appears to have flown into a storm cloud, with the jets engines possibly affected by ice formation, researchers from the Indonesia weather office wrote in a report.
