Probe launched into Helios crash
Air accident investigators have started a probe into why a Helios Airways Boeing 737 crashed into hills north of Athens.
All 121 passengers and crew – including 48 children – died when the aircraft came down on Sunday on a flight from Larnaca in Cyprus to Prague via Athens.
Unconfirmed reports suggested decompression led to a severe drop in cabin pressure could be the cause of the crash.
The Cypriot budget airline operates four 737s and serves Luton airport.
