Dirt from the level of Air France, which fell in the year 2009 in the Atlantic Ocean is quite concentrated. This has investigators confident that the aircraft "Black boxes" are stored.

Newly found plane that crashed into the Atlantic Ocean in 2009 to Paris from Rio de Janeiro is the wreck of an Air France a large and intact in the passenger jet, a French Minister said on Monday.

"This is a large part of the plain, in one piece," Transport Minister Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, France Inter said public radio, a day after investigators announced that level was found parts which condemned to failure.

Kosciusko-Morizet said it was now the "hope for a quick search the black boxes" could be said that investigators what caused the crash, the partly due to allegedly defective speed monitors is been blamed.

The aircraft went all 228 people on Board about halfway between Senegal and Brazil 1 June 2009, in the deadliest crash in Air France to kill history.

"Carried out in the search in the sea to the team on Board last 24 hours... the (ship) Alucia located parts of the aircraft," France's Bureau of investigation and analysis (BEA) said in a statement.

"These elements have been identified by BEA investigators as part of the debris of the A330-203 level, flight AF 447", the crashed, the statement said.

BEA Director Jean-Paul Troadec said that investigators found hope have the aircraft "Black boxes", because the dirt area was relatively concentrated.

"The good news is that area is relatively concentrated debris." And this gives us hope of the "black boxes", ", he said."

TROADEC said, that the parts of the wreckage, which had been found was from "Engines and certain elements of the wing."

A new search for the wreckage on 25 March started with the help of Alucia, a ship exploration of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute-find on the fourth attempt, the debris in the hope discover what caused the crash.

The official reason remains vague, but it has partial blame for the incorrect speed sensors from Airbus was used, with Air France accused response not fast enough to reports that they may be incorrect.

The Alucia came from Seattle on the northwest coast of the United States with three Remus u-boats, which search the ocean floor.

The u-boats have photos of the ruins.

The estimated cost of the search are Air France and Airbus, which will be probed for alleged manslaughter in connection with the crash - pay$ 12.7 million.

TROADEC had previously told AFP that the latest search would try a different approach, with researchers, simply held the debris search specifically for the black boxes, or "Black box".

The latest search contain a much larger area of a 46-mile radius around the last known position of flight 447.

A third search of the sea bed to try to find the black boxes had errors in May ended.

"The determination of the location, a few days after the start of the fourth phase of the search at sea which is sponsored by Air France and Airbus, is very good news," Air France KLM CEO Pierre-Henri Gourgeon said.

It is hoped that enough information to explain the cause of the crash, he added.

"It can now answers to questions, the families of the victims, our company since June 1, 2009... in terms of the facts, which this tragedy led to," Gourgeon said.

The head of the French Federation, the families of the victims, Jean-Baptiste Audousset, also spoke of "Hope for the families," but the family warned would be cautious and waited for proof.

"It is key that the black boxes are found," said a spokesman for Airbus. "This the only possible way to understand what the accident is led."
