Although the crew had requested refueling at Lyons, no refueling had taken place. The crew didn't check the amount of fuel and took off for Tours. At Tours the amount wasn't verified either. Thus some time after leaving Tours, both engines stopped and a forced landing was carried out.
Classification:
