Week on the Web

See images of the Afriqiyah Airways Airbus A330-200 that had accumulated just 1,600 flight hours before the accident in Tripoli.

AirSpace users were quick of the mark to upload images from around the web showing the wreckage and began discussing the developments to the story as it unfolded.

RunwayGirl posted an article about the first iPad IFE system to be formally launched at the Hamburg Interiors show this week. And says "an unidentified international carrier" would be using it on flights from July.

RunwayGirl says: "The system leverages the power, flexibility and quality of the Apple iPad, the most advanced consumer device ever produced".

View an animation of the Turkish Airlines Boeing 737-800 that crashed on approach to Amsterdam.

It shows the aircraft's autothrottle reduced the thrust to idle early in the approach, after receiving incorrect altitude information from a faulty left-hand radio altimeter, causing the jet to lose airspeed.

There's a superb black and white image on AirSpace of the Eurofighter Typhoon taken by user andychittock.
