Air France Flight Hit Water Intact

A French investigator says Air France Flight 447 did not break up in flight but plunged vertically into the Atlantic Ocean. Alain Bouillard, leading the investigation into the June 1 crash for the French accident investigation agency BEA, also says life vests found among the wreckage of the plane were not inflated.

Bouillard said at a news conference outside Paris today that the search for the plane's black boxes has been extended by 10 days and will continue through July 10.
