Tragic Air France crash blamed on control failure
Paris investigators say an Air France chartered jet carrying about 130 members of an Atlanta art league crashed on takeoff from Orly Airport in June 1962 due to loss of control. The disaster killed 130, the era’s worst air crash. Two stewardesses survived. A second report from Houston ties a separate incident to a failed control mechanism and a plastic bag with a note. The London store sign notes repairs during alterations.

Meanwhile North Vietnam accused U S and South Vietnamese forces of shelling a town, killing and wounding civilians, with one report noting damage to a warship.
