MADRID, Spain (AP) — The jetliner that crashed in Madrid abandoned a first takeoff attempt because of an air gauge that showed overheating, but experts said it was unlikely the gauge was a factor in the accident that killed 153 people.
As investigators began trying to piece together the plane's final moments, relatives of victims went to a makeshift morgue to identify their loved ones. Only 25 of the dead had been identified a day after Wednesday's crash.
Nineteen people survived the crash of the Spanair MD-82 flight to the Canary Islands, Spain's worst air disaster in 25 years. Twenty-two children and infants were listed as passengers; only three made it through the crash. The children were in stable condition with mostly minor injuries.
