Sukhoi Jet crashlanding Moscow

Post by Flyboy »

TextRT:
Aeroflot Flight SU1492 declared an emergency shortly after takeoff from Sheremetyevo and returned to the airport after 27 minutes in the air. The commuter aircraft was due to fly to Murmansk before the fire forced it to return to Moscow and crash-land.

After the fire was extinguished, the extent of the damage was revealed. The tail had been completely consumed by the blaze, and much of the rear fuselage had been burned down to its metal skeleton. The aircraft involved was relatively new, with reports saying it was made either in 2017 or 2018.

A criminal investigation has been opened into the incident.

UPDATE: Aeroflot #SU1492 footage shows the Sukhoi Superjet bounced
on initial touchdown followed by an even harder 2nd ground contact
during which the undercarriage collapsed
and a fire broke out.

There is no visible fire before that point.
This is bad. Really bad... :shock: :(

Aeroflot Superjet captain charged over fatal landing accident

02 October, 2019

Criminal investigators have charged the captain of an Aeroflot Sukhoi Superjet 100
in connection with the fatal landing accident at Moscow Sheremetyevo airport earlier this year.
https://www.flightglobal.com/news/artic ... ng-461241/
The captain had taken manual control of the Superjet after the lightning strike
but the investigation has highlighted heavy-handed and abrupt inputs to the side-stick
during the approach and touchdown.

Russia's federal Investigative Committee says that the aircraft made a rough landing,
adding that the captain's actions to control the jet were "in violation of established rules"
and led to the airframe damage and the outbreak of fire.
