Tenerife crash probe cites heavy taxiway and runway confusion
Analysts estimate future settlements could reach 425 million for deaths and injuries with insurers adding 63 million to cover the two planes. Officials note bewilderment over the cause as KLM and Pan Am teams discuss whether language and clearance contributed to the collision near Tenerife's airport. Both aircraft were told to taxi to the northwest runway for takeoff, with limited visibility and a narrow main taxiway cited as possible factors.
