On October 7, at an altitude of 5,100 meters, 260 km from Krasnoyarsk, on an An-24RV (RA-46466) operating a flight from Svetlogorsk, the right side window of the cockpit burst, causing depressurization. The Rosaviatsiya commission investigating the incident announced preliminary conclusions and possible causes.
Incorrect installation of the glass, hidden manufacturing defect, and operational loads - this fatal combination, according to Rosaviatsiya, led to the destruction of the glass in the cockpit and the sudden depressurization of the An-24RV aircraft of the KrasAvia airline.
Commission specialists continue a detailed analysis of all factors, including the condition of the sealing rubbers and fasteners, as well as the maintenance history of the aircraft, in order to establish the exact sequence of events that led to such a serious incident.
