A Russian Tupolev Tu-204
medium-haul airliner overshot the runway while landing at Russia’s
third busiest airport and caught fire on Saturday evening, killing four
and injuring four other people.
Russia has set up an inter-governmental commission comprising the
Federal Air Transport Agency and the Federal Transport Oversight Service
to investigate the causes of the air disaster. Pilot error is currently
being viewed as the probable cause.
Four persons injured in the air crash were hospitalized in a grave
condition, with no improvements reported in their health so far.
The flight recorders from the Tu-204 wreckage have been found and delivered to the Inter-State Aviation Committee for study.
There were eight people on board the plane, all of whom were crewmembers, flying from the Czech Republic.
The plane belonged to Red Wings, a Moscow-based airline that operates
8-10 Tu-204 planes, each with capacity to carry up to 210 passengers.
The Moscow city transport prosecutor's office has launched a criminal
probe into the airline's compliance with Russian aviation safety
regulations.
