The Mexican company that owns the plane which crashed in Cuba killing 112 people has said the crash was caused by “human error”
Damojh airlines said a study of the data recorders showed the Boeing 737 had taken off too steeply.
Mexican pilots’ union, ASPA, said Damojh’s statement, which was released before the official investigation has concluded, was “irresponsible”.
The crash was one of the worst to happen in the Caribbean for decades.
The Boeing 737 and its Mexican crew had been leased from Damojh by Cuban state airline Cubana when it came down 20km (12 miles) south of the Cuban capital, Havana.
