Two Photos were found in a digital Casio Z750, amidst the remains of flight AF477. Although the camera was destroyed, the Memory Stick was recovered. Investigating the serial number of the camera, the owner was identified as Paulo G. Muller, an actor of a theatre for children known in the outskirts of Porto Alegre . It can be imagined that he was standing during the turbulence, he managed to take these photos. Just seconds after the tail loss the aircraft plunged.
The structural stress probably ripped the engines away, diminishing the falling speed, protecting the electronic equipment a little.
Paulo Muller leaves behind two daughters, Bruna and Beatriz.
In the first photo, there is a gaping hole in the fuselage through which you can see the tail plane and vertical fin of the aircraft. In the second photo, one of the passengers is being sucked out of the gaping hole.
If after seeing these photos you still believe the plane did not break up in mid-air, you're a better man than me Charley Brown. The size of the hole tells the story, it broke up in mid air. No question.

Are all 330's and 340's airbuses unsafe before "sensors" are relplaced? Iam concerned for my " safety" as Iam flying on an Airbus 340 to France in the near future' Please send me your reply
No, I believe all these aircraft are just fine. Turned out the info I quoted was a hoax. I checked it out later, too late unfortunately, with www.SNOPES.com and found it was stolen from an Episode of "Lost" a tv program I wasn't familiar with.
When you think of the number of airlines who own and fly these aircraft ever day and have been doling so for several years and this is only the second suspected loss in all that time, that's a darn good safety record by any standards.
