Two years after the accident with a Fokker-100 from Air France/ KLM in Pau on 25 january 2007, the BEA have published their final report (in french) on the crash of that airplane. It appears that a contaminated wing by icing conditions that morning was the cause of the accident. Due to this accident a truck driver was killed when the airplane crossed a busy "route departementale". From the report it is clear that by miracle a disaster was avoided. The report is available from the BEA website

I was one of the passengers on this flight. You can find my story (in Dutch) in an article posted in the category "Gebeurtenissen". Disappointingly neither Air France nor KLM were so kind to provide any compensation for bringing us in serious circomstances of danger of death. See also an article from  The Aviation Herald  for pictures of the crash.
