Tripoli crash In a followup to Thursday's DC-10 disaster in Tripoli. Libyan officials said the jet itself was not at fault. Libya's civil aviation director, Mohamed Abughres, said an instrument landing system at Tripoli International Airport as not working when a Korean Air DC-10 crashed short of the fog-shrouded runway, killing at least 77 people.

Meanwhile, in Toronto, a Canadian Airlines DC-10 with 254 people aboard lost one of its 10 wheels as it left Rio de Janeiro.
