"The plane crashed in Greece after circling for more than an hour in a holding pattern above the Aegean Sea island of Kea (search), southeast of Athens International Airport.

"There are indications of technical problems in the pressurization system... There is proof that the engines of the plane stopped working because the fuel supply was exhausted, and that this was the final cause of the crash," the two-page report said.

Frozen men don't talk....

Cyprus crash victims 'frozen solid'
Mon Aug 15, 2005 9:56 AM BST

ATHENS (Reuters) - Most bodies recovered from a crashed Cyprus airliner were "frozen solid", including some whose skin was charred by the plane's fiery crash, a top Greek Defence Ministry source said on Monday.

On Sunday, a Helios Airways Boeing 737 flying from Larnaca to Athens crashed into a mountain in Greece, killing all 121 aboard. Preliminary investigations suggested the disaster was caused by a catastrophic loss of cabin pressure and oxygen supply.

"Autopsy on passengers so far shows the bodies were frozen solid, including some whose skin was charred by flames from the crash," the source, who has access to the investigation, told Reuters.
