Dixit Nora Bechiti : The only tribe in the world, who will swallow you like anacondas, who have no respect of any value, whether moral, physical, social or legal! Rather cut off your arm than extend it towards them: ‘If your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. For it is better for you to lose one of your members than to see your whole body go into Gehenna. ‘ The Bible-
Motors suffering from recurring breakdown, tags “Allahou akbar” on airplanes … The airline and the intelligence services are on alert, reveals Le Canard Enchaîné.
According to Le Canard Enchaîné, Air France and the intelligence services are on the alert after the multiplication of incidents that could reveal the presence of numerous workers radicalized in the ranks of the company. If, for the time being, none of its anomalies have resulted in accidents, the latter pose a question.
“As for Air France, we have seen several anomalies before the departure of commercial flights,” said an intelligence official, quoted by the satirical weekly, “are similar to attempts to scuttle.” If the company is reassuring about the safety of its personnel and its customers, a captain refused to take off his plane by claiming his right to withdraw after another incident.
Anomalies on engines
Air France recently filed a complaint after the kerosene filling hatches on about forty of its aircrafts were tagged with an “Allahu akbar” (“God is the greatest”). A bad joke that adds to other anomalies spotted in recent months. Thus, at the time of the check-list, tests were carried out before take-off, and several pilots detected a recurring failure on the relay engine, which allows to control the reactors from the cockpit.
After investigation, a French converted, employed by Air France, was identified as a suspect. He quickly fled, and was later spotted in Yemen, reports Le Canard Enchaîné. Two other employees of the company, acquaintances of the first, are suspected of having trafficked several evacuation slides intended for the aircraft of the French airline. An operation carried out in their maintenance workshop.
In addition, comes what intelligence services calls “weak signals”. Risky but worrisome behavior or anomalies. While a runway worker refused to guide a plane on the pretext that a woman was flying it. At the beginning of August, Air France had to justify itself after the disappearance on the cards broadcast to the passengers of Israel on one of its flights between Los Angeles and Tel Aviv, which stopped in Paris. A few months ago, the company was talking about “scale problem being resolved”.

This so-called technicalanomaly was repeated when the safety instructions were communicated automatically in Arabic a few months earlier on an aircraft linking Paris to Amsterdam, and when Morocco turned into “Khalifa” on another card. According to the weekly, the survey made it possible to go up to an employee of a company providing services in charge of programming screens made available to passengers.
The security services recognize this: the subcontractors appear to be a fault. How does one control them and check the activities of their employees when they are not located in the Roissy Charles De Gaulle airport area? Meanwhile, the intelligence services, of which 30 police officers have been placed in reinforcement, are in charge of the surveillance of 90.000 employees distributed among 900 companies. “The task is considerable”, admits a policeman. Last November, a search made it possible to identify S-carded employees with badges to access the runways.
