Exactly one year ago, on July 12, 2024, a Sukhoi Superjet 100-95LR aircraft (RA-89049) crashed while performing a ferry flight from Lukhovitsy to Vnukovo. All three crew members died.
According to the interim report of the Interstate Aviation Committee, the cause of the crash was a spontaneous lowering of the aircraft's nose, which the crew could not handle. The plane crashed into the ground and caught fire.
The Investigative Committee has opened a criminal case under the article "Violation of safety rules for traffic and operation of air transport, resulting in the death of two or more persons due to negligence." The plane had previously undergone maintenance and was returning to base. The investigation of the incident is ongoing, and there is no final conclusion yet.
Incidents with the Sukhoi Superjet
Unfortunately, SSJ-100 aircraft regularly appeared in news reports.
In early July 2024, at Pulkovo Airport, after the landing of a Yamal Airlines aircraft, the engine smoked, and 87 passengers were able to disembark as normal.
In February 2024, the crew of a Superjet of the Rossiya airline requested an emergency landing at Sheremetyevo due to a failed engine.
In May 2024, an SSJ-100 of Yamal Airlines made an emergency landing in Tyumen - its autopilot failed.
On May 5, 2019, at Sheremetyevo, an Aeroflot SSJ-100 aircraft began to "porpoise" upon landing in manual mode, was damaged and caught fire, killing 41 people.
The flight to Yakutsk in October 2018 also almost ended in irreparable tragedy. The plane landed with the right engine reverse deactivated and rolled off the runway. As a result, four people were injured.
Earlier www1.ru reported that thermoplastic materials will appear in PD-14, PD-8 and PD-35 engines.
