A Spanish judge is to question three mechanics on suspicion of manslaughter over a jet crash that killed 154 people.
A total of 154 people lost their lives in the disaster
Judge Juan Javier Perez of Madrid's Superior Court has subpoenaed two mechanics who checked the plane before it crashed while taking off, causing what was Spain's worst air disaster in 25 years.
Spanair's head of maintenance at Madrid's Barajas airport is also to be quizzed.
None of them has been charged.
The MD-82 plane abandoned a first attempt at take-off because of a faulty air temperature gauge outside the cockpit.
The plane crashed about an hour later during its second take-off attempt.
Earlier this month, the first official report into the tragedy said investigators were focusing on a problem with the plane's wing flaps and the failure of a cockpit alarm to sound.
