Aisling Butler from Roscrea, Dubliner Jane Deasy and Eithne Walls from County Down were all in their 20s and had graduated from Medical School at Trinity College in 2007.

A French Court today delivered the ruling of not guilty.

The official report found several factors caused the crash, including ice obstructing sensors outside the body of the plane as well as pilot error.
