PANIC ON BOARD
“The plane almost crashed” - with this headline, the news about the incident with the airliner of the “North Wind” airline went through several media outlets. Airbus A321 flew from Heraklion (Crete) to St. Petersburg on May 3, flight N41606. He was supposed to arrive at Pulkovo at 11:35.
One of the passengers, political scientist Dmitry Gavra, published a post on his social network in which he complained that the liner had dramatically lost altitude and returned to the island. According to him, the plane "fell three kilometers." The crew did not tell the passengers that the plane had turned around. People did not know that the liner was going to land.
When the plane began to abruptly lose altitude, the automatics in a metallic voice said "prepare for splashdown." We then flew over the sea. That is, it is not a crew, but an assault rifle. It was heard because I was sitting close enough, - told the reporter " Komsomolskaya Pravda- Petersburg "Dmitry Gavra.
According to a source of "KP", such a voice command is neither in Russian nor in English language no. Pilots don't use such slang either.
Then the pilot managed to level the plane, and we returned at low altitude and landed. We were stopped somewhere on the outskirts of the airport, there was an ambulance, police and technical services... And then I heard that the conversations were in a raised voice, - says the passenger.
At the Heraklion airport, tourists waited 2.5 hours. They were given water and sandwiches. The representative of the airline, who went out to the people, did not speak Russian. So one of the passengers had to help with the translation. According to Dmitry Gavra, no one said that there were technical problems with the plane. It was reported that another liner will fly to St. Petersburg.
111 people flew on board the A321, 8 of them were children. Tourists have returned home from Crete charter flight airlines "Ikar". The plane landed at Pulkovo at 18:15.
DID THE PLANE FALL?
The "North Wind" confirmed that there were technical problems with the plane. Which ones are not specified. A few hours after the emergency, we phoned the assistant to the chief director of the airline.
We have no information. that something is wrong with the plane. Everything is fine with us, - Anton Maslakov commented to the KP in Petersburg correspondent.
We traced the plane's path on the Flyradar24 website, through which you can watch the iron birds online.
According to the charts, the Airbus “ North Wind"Got off the ground at 06:22 local time. Already at 06:36 it reached its maximum height - 7.7 kilometers. And then he began to descend: in the next minute he dropped one kilometer, then in seven minutes by another three. The liner returned to the airport at a three-kilometer altitude. The total travel time is 40 minutes. Already at 07:02 the plane touched the ground. In the sky, the liner drew an "eight".
COMPETENTLY
We talked about the plane accident with honored pilot of Russia, test pilot Vadim BAZYKIN.
- Vadim Valerievich, is this a sharp decline?
Yes, this is a pretty sharp decline. But we have such a notion among extreme people “the threshold of death” - it is 8800 meters. If he didn't get 8, then there was nothing fatal. Terrible - it could, but not fatal.
- What could have happened at all?
Impossible to guess. It could have been anything. A modern aircraft is about 130 computers. You will not take off until some kind of board, red or yellow, has gone out.
During takeoff, anything can be - a minor failure or a glitch. The pilot knows what to do when the command "refusal" is displayed.
In general, there are not many situations when it is necessary to return to the airfield of departure. Even when one engine fails, the flight must be completed. If you decided to return, then it was according to the instructions.
- Should flight attendants inform passengers about problems on the plane?
Everything works for the safety of the flight. If the crew was struggling, he might not have informed the flight attendants at all, so they didn't know. But if they knew, then, of course, they should have informed the passengers.
- Some passengers suggested that there could be a depressurization of the cabin.
When depressurization occurs, sensors are triggered and masks with oxygen fall out. It's just like the airbags in the car. If this did not happen, then there was no depressurization.
- Why is a sharp decline dangerous for health?
In any aircraft there is a pressure switch. Passengers are taught height from the ground. When the plane just takes off before takeoff, the pressure is inside, as if it is already at an altitude of one and a half kilometers. When the plane flies 10 kilometers, the passengers in the cabin feel that they are flying at an altitude of three. If the plane suddenly loses altitude, it automatically maintains pressure. Ears can be blocked, but something painful and serious is unlikely.
- One of the passengers claims to have heard the command of the on-board computer. Is it possible?
Passengers can only hear what the flight attendants are saying. All voice commands are given to the crew inside the cockpit, so it is impossible to hear anything. This is already a wild fantasy played out.
A tragedy struck today: a Saratov Airlines passenger plane crashed in the Moscow region. An-148 performed a flight from the capital to Orsk. 71 people were on board: 65 passengers and 6 crew members. There are no survivors.
The President expressed his condolences to the relatives of the victims. In connection with this tragedy, Vladimir Putin changed his schedule: the working trip to Sochi was postponed. According to the Kremlin press service, in order for the president to be able to directly coordinate the work of a special commission to clarify the causes of the tragedy. The commission was created on behalf of the head of state.
This footage was taken by eyewitnesses a few minutes after the disaster. The wreckage of the plane is scattered in the snow-covered field, around, at least at first glance, there are no traces of fire or explosion. As if he just fell to the ground from a height. At the same time, the picture at the crash site - the wreckage is scattered over a radius of a kilometer - suggests that the liner collapsed while still in the air. And eyewitnesses say that before the fall, the plane seemed to be engulfed in flames.
The data on how long the plane has been in the air is still different. At first, it was reported that the flight lasted about seven minutes. Later it was reported that it crashed just two minutes after takeoff. One way or another, the place of the fall - this is the vicinity of the village of Argunovo in the Ramensky district of the Moscow region - is located just 30 kilometers from the Domodedovo airport.
“After a very strong cotton, we went to look for the place where this cotton was found. The entire field is roughly the size, I give it offhand - these are two football fields, "- said an eyewitness.
From the airport "Domodedovo" the plane of the flight Moscow - Orsk took off at 14 hours 21 minutes. And soon disappeared from the radar screens. Internet publications publish the words of an air traffic controller, allegedly the one who monitored the air situation in the crash area - the plane took off normally, then began to descend, but did not get in touch anymore and did not answer requests. Even an audio recording of the talks has appeared on the Web, although it is not yet possible to guarantee its reliability.
One thing can be said for sure: the crew did not report any malfunctions on board, although the breakdown of the aircraft, along with a piloting error and unfavorable weather conditions, are now three main versions of the disaster.
As the official representative of the IC, Svetlana Petrenko, said, the operational documentation in the Saratov Airlines company is being seized, its employees are being interrogated. In addition, the investigators began interrogating the employees of the Domodedovo airport, who were preparing the aircraft for the flight.
So far, too little is known about the last flight of the crashed plane, but experts have already drawn attention to its strange trajectory. According to the service "Flytradar", after takeoff from Domodedovo, it began to rise to the mark of 1800 meters, then dropped to one and a half thousand, then rise again, and after that the plane goes down sharply. Due to these conflicting data, at first there was even a version that the An-148 could collide with a helicopter in the air. But later these rumors were denied.
Aviation experts now suspect that the liner icing could be the cause - if a piece of ice got into the engine.
“Sometimes, because of the weather, because of icing, something can happen. The aircraft is poorly handled or has got into sharp, strong icing. The weather here could play a negative role only if there was a failure of the engines and the crew did not see the site, could not pick up and land, ”says honored pilot of Russia Yuri Sytnik.
The crashed An-148 belonged to the Saratov Airlines. Until that day, there were four aircraft of this type in its fleet. A short-haul aircraft designed to carry 80 passengers. Liner, wrecked, was produced less than eight years ago. At first it belonged to the Rossiya airline, flew, including on foreign routes. It was later sold to Saratov. And the airline assures that they do not doubt either the serviceability of the aircraft or the qualifications of the crew.
“There was an experienced crew on board. The aircraft commander is Valery Ivanovich Gubanov, who has more than 5 thousand flight hours, and on this type, Valery Ivanovich had 2147 flight hours, "said Elena Voronova, head of the press service of Saratov Airlines.
“8 years is, of course, not a period for an airplane. Moreover, Antonovskaya is a reliable company. Our airworthiness standards are the strictest in the world. Not only to new production airplanes, but to airplanes that are submitted for testing, ”said Vitaly Zhiltsov, Honored Test Pilot of the USSR.
Meanwhile, the authorities are already publishing a list of those killed in the disaster. There were 71 people on board - 65 passengers and six crew members. No one had a chance to survive.
The head of the Ministry of Transport of Russia, Maxim Sokolov, said that "in accordance with federal legislation, all relatives of the victims are paid insurance in the amount of more than 2 million rubles, and the necessary additional decisions in this direction will be taken through the subject."
To identify the bodies in the An-148 crash, DNA samples from relatives of the victims will be delivered to Moscow from Orsk by a special board of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. The bodies will be identified at the Moscow Bureau of Expertise.
EMERCOM of Russia has opened a hotline. Phone: 8-800-775-17-17.
Works hot line and in Orenburg region: 8-3532- 308-999.
At the crash site passenger aircraft An-148 in the suburbs of almost 600 rescuers. The wreckage is scattered over large area, the search operation will be conducted around the clock, one of the black boxes has already been found.
“We have formed operational groups that work here and in Orsk, on the territory of the Orenburg region. The task force works in Domodedovo and, where necessary, on the territory of the Moscow region. I will ask you to provide support for all relatives and friends, taking into account vital indications, to organize the watch of medical teams of social workers and all specialists who are needed according to vital indications, "- instructed the head of the EMERCOM of Russia Vladimir Puchkov.
At the Orsk airport, relatives of the victims are provided with all the necessary assistance. The director of the airport, Sergei Sukharev, said that psychologists and doctors are working in the first-aid post.
Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia performed a prayer service for those killed in this crash. Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, Foreign Ministers of Turkey, France and Belgium and other countries brought condolences to Russian citizens in connection with the An-148 plane crash.
In connection with this tragedy, Channel One changes its broadcasting schedule. Immediately after our program instead of the club game “What? Where? When?" - broadcast from Olympic Pyeongchang
The death of the A-321 aircraft, flying 9268 from the Egyptian Sharm el-Sheikh to Pulkovo with 217 passengers and seven crew members on board, became the largest aviation accident in the history of Russia and the USSR. In the Soviet Union, the worst air accident occurred in the Uchkuduk area on July 10, 1985. Then, as a result of the fall of the Tu-154, flying from Karshi to Leningrad, 191 passengers and nine crew members were killed.
The death of flight 9268 of the Kogalymavia (Metrojet) company from the very beginning was accompanied not only by unverified information, but also by outright stuffing. In the first hours after the tragedy, Arab news agencies reported, referring to some rescuers operating at the crash site, that the A-321 collapsed when falling into two large parts and from the tail one could even hear moans and requests for help. A little later, some representatives of the "Islamic State" claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack on board Russian aircraft... This statement was immediately picked up by foreign and some of the domestic media.
On the fateful day, "Airbus A-321" took off from the Egyptian airport at 6 hours 51 minutes Moscow time (3.51 GMT), but already at 7.14 (4.14) it did not get in touch with the Larnaca airport, and a few seconds earlier the flight disappeared from radar screens.
As a result of the search and rescue operations that have begun, it has been established that the wreckage of the aircraft, scattered over an area of 16 to 20 square kilometers, has characteristic signs that the "Airbus" collapsed while still in the air. We remind that the wreckage of the Malaysian Boeing-777, which followed the flight MH-17 and died over the southeast of Ukraine, spread over an area of more than 50 square kilometers. Already on November 1, the Federal Air Transport Agency and the Interstate Aviation Committee confirmed that the destruction of the A-321 occurred in the air.
At this point, despite the fact that flight recorders, they are "black boxes", were not only found by rescuers, but are already being deciphered, data on the flight parameters of the A-321 "Kogalymavia" are available only from the FlightRadar24 Internet service.
At 07.12 (04.12) the plane was at an altitude of 10,200 meters (33,500 feet), continuing to climb in order to get on the echelon to Pulkovo airport. The flight speed was approximately 750 kilometers per hour (just over 400 knots), and the vertical speed was unchanged. But at exactly 7.13 (4.13), the flight speed dropped to 170 kilometers per hour (just over 20 knots) and, according to the calculations of the aviation-safety.net resource (the diagram was obtained as a result of FR24 data processing), the vertical speed began to equal 6,000 feet per minute, or 30.48 meters per second (a negative reading means that the plane is descending). This was no longer a decline or a dive, but actually a fall. At this point, the A-321, having lost 5,000 feet, was at an altitude of about 8,600 meters (28,375 feet).
To summarize, in fact, for 22 seconds the plane tried to stop the fall and go to climb, each time breaking down. But then its vertical speed increased to such indicators that the car reached the maximum angles of attack and, accordingly, exorbitant overloads. Further - the fall and destruction of the A-321.
Note that the given vertical speed indicators were obtained from the FlightRadar24 data processing and in reality could be lower.
The media exaggerated the message that the aircraft crew allegedly turned to air traffic controllers for help. According to some reports, he reported a certain malfunction, according to others, he requested permission to land. But both the Egyptian and Russian authorities deny that such a conversation took place.
In the first hours after the tragedy, there was evidence that the deceased A-321 had problems with the engines, which the pilots repeatedly reported to their superiors. True, in the evening of October 31, representatives of the carrier said that there were no calls, the airliner went through all the routine maintenance in a timely manner.
Versions
The observer of the "Military-Industrial Courier" managed to communicate with employees and personnel of companies operating similar passenger liners, as well as representatives of Russian state bodies responsible for control in the aviation sector.
Most of the interlocutors unequivocally stated that they would not draw conclusions at least until the moment when the transcripts of the flight recorders were announced, but agreed to provide explanations on the facts already available.
Based on aviation-safety.net, although there was a sharp drop in speed, there is hardly a problem or failure of one of the IAE V2500 engines. In this case, the plane would not be able to climb several times before falling. According to one of the representatives of the airline - the operator of the A-321, this at least indicates that not only the power plants retained traction, but also the propulsion automatics worked.
We can say that for 22 seconds the aircraft's autopilot tried to parry what, according to one of the interlocutors, “was almost impossible to parry”. But then, instead of stabilizing the liner, the automatics, failing to cope, transferred the plane to a sharp climb, which led to extreme overloads, reaching critical angles of attack, stalling (possibly a spin) and structural destruction.
The causes of the impact that led to the death of the "Airbus" can be both mechanical problems with the elevators or stabilizer, and the failure of the automation itself, it is also the EDSU (electronic remote control system). It is possible that the pilots, faced with a malfunction in the control system, tried to independently hold the plane, parrying the impact.
But mechanical failure of the rudders or stabilizer could only lead to the fall of the aircraft. The climb in this case is unrealistic. And at least a partial failure of the control system causes the occurrence of so-called self-oscillations, which are very similar to the above data on the vertical speed.
True, almost all the respondents questioned the option with the failure of the EDSU, pointing out that during the operation of the A-321 this was not the case, and the Airbus control system itself is very reliable and its most important elements are duplicated.
Representatives of the industry reacted rather skeptically to the possible defeat of the aircraft from anti-aircraft missile systems, as well as the detonation of a device placed on board by terrorists. A missile hit, as the example of the Malaysian Boeing-777 showed, would lead to instant structural destruction and the fall of the remains of the aircraft over a sufficiently large area, the same can be said about the use of IEDs.
conclusions
The tragedy of Flight 9268 is still awaiting investigation. Until the flight recorder data is published, the debris is being collected. The layout of the remnants of the A-321 is ahead, but already now not only experts of varying degrees of awareness, but even various officials draw attention to the fact that the crashed airliner has survived four owners, and the car is already 18 years old - this is not the place in the parks of Russian carriers, it is necessary to raise the domestic aviation industry ...
The A-321 is the largest aircraft of the A-320 family, which is considered the record holder for the number of manufactured and operated aircraft. "Three hundred twenty-first" is capable of carrying from 170 to 220 passengers at a distance of 5600 kilometers. At the same time, the Superjet takes from 98 to 108 passengers with a range of just over three thousand kilometers (or 4500 in the Long Range version). Theoretically, the newest Russian MS-21, the first flight of which has not yet taken place, should be close to the "three hundred and twenty-first" indicators put into operation in 1994. Tu-204/214, also capable of carrying over 200 passengers at a distance of six to seven thousand kilometers (depending on the model), are operated by only a few airlines (the most large park at SLO "Russia" and " Red Wings"- 12 and 8 cars, respectively).
Alas, one thing is already clear: the tragedy of Flight 9268 will be used for all sorts of loud statements for a long time, and the rise of the domestic aviation industry requires painstaking, hard work.

The plane can be destroyed by a terrorist attack from the outside (to prevent which inspections and security services are used), but this is stupid, let's say clumsy work. But if service specialists are involved in a terrorist attack, or rather, an admitted specialist will do a three-second job - put the device less than a matchbox or "lighter", the main thing is to the necessary unit, then the catastrophe will happen as technical malfunction... For example, as a version: - the use of a micro explosive device with an SMS receiver, the size and appearance of a lighter. The technician, opened the hatch, another, the third on the engine, this is his technological duty, there to look at the oil level, there -on the state and no leakage, etc. All this happens quite quickly and in the usual way (there is no flight mechanic or flight engineer in the crew). Let's say I opened an extra hatch on the engine pylon and stuck a micro device on the fire hydrant. During the flight, a micro explosion occurred in the engine pylon: the fuel wire to the engine is destroyed, the fuel gushes and burns (there is no fire-prevention system in that area), the pipes of the hydraulic systems are destroyed and the aircraft control refuses. Before the plane crashes, this place will burn out and melt (above the engine), no traces of a terrorist attack will be found there (all the more there will be destruction from hitting the ground and again fire, because the fuel in the wing will not go anywhere). Yes, what can I say: -1000 options to pack a modern aircraft and it will look like a technical malfunction. Imagine - a joystick controls a computer, there is a program in it, parameters from gyroscopes, aneroid sensors and aircraft systems come to the computer. All this, although duplicated 2 or 3 times, ends with the cockpit area. Further, through the optical fiber (through the laser), the control signals are sent (to similar routers) to the electronic devices on the hydraulic boosters and to the steering surfaces. Any failure (lightning strike; blackout; tiny explosion or thermite fire or exposure to corrosive acid) at the right point in the interweaving of the internal wiring in the aircraft - and the aircraft will lose control. It's not just that there is nothing to control it directly (through the steering wheel and mechanical connection, through the hydraulic boosters on the surface) as the last chance - it simply does not exist. Airplanes are now not being built stable (the stabilizer should press down and take away part of the wing lift), but quite the opposite, unstable (to obtain the greatest weight return, i.e., a greater commercial load). The loss of controllability leads to a sharp maneuver with exorbitant overload and destruction (the Airbus does not have such a safety margin as a fighter), so they will not have time to shout on the air. I expressed the direction, and the "bookmark" can be done a week or a couple of months earlier (on the same heavy technical regulations, in the country where it is produced).

Yes, they blew it up like a drink, the tail flew off the fuselage by 8 km, what kind of breakage could be so that the tail was torn off. ... And no one will tell us the whole truth so as not to sow panic. They will say a technical malfunction and voila, they ate everything.
Vlad391 , 02:45, November 3, 2015
In principle, everything can be allowed, but it really looks like the ultimate conspiracy, and most importantly - why all this? On the other hand, the considerations about the instability of the aircraft are very serious, moreover, the car is old and already broken down. So overload and destruction are self-evident. We must release our planes and fly them. And already foreign ones, at least to acquire new ones, and not broken old ones. Transaero with new cars went bankrupt, and do not understand who is killing our people for their profits. What are the loud statements here.
Andrey , 10:16, November 3, 2015
The rise of the domestic aircraft industry in the next 20 years is not possible, I'm afraid. Judging by the level of education of "people with diplomas" who come to science and production after "Universities", they do not even pull the Sovdep eight-year plan. It is necessary to restore the destroyed education with primary school... A specialist will appear in twenty-five years (if by that time there are still old cadres from whom it will be possible to learn from the experience). I judge by the young engineers and designers who come to work at the Almaz-Antey Air Defense Concern after graduation.
Sergey , 15:57, November 3, 2015
terrorist attacks are made to intimidate and therefore public. to hide a terrorist attack behind a malfunction is complete nonsense

unstable aerodynamic schemes are used on military aircraft, in particular on fighters, to increase maneuverability, airliners, weight return - this has nothing to do with it, this airbus is of a normal aerodynamic design. And about the EDSU - yes, I agree, the wiring of the control by wire is cool, modern, efficient, but - in the event of an emergency situation, a computer failure in the control system, this is the end
Vlad391 , 19:41, November 3, 2015
Guest, you see, Airbus is clearly not a fighter, but what the normal aerodynamic scheme means is not clear. Our Ilahs are capable of gliding when all engines fail, I don’t know about the Boeing, aerodynamically they have a lot in common with the Eli. Airbus is less stable, and taking into account the dependence on avionics and automation, so beloved by Europeans, we get the very thing that you first refute. By the way, statistics show that the ability of our pilots to perfectly master Airbus control leaves much to be desired. Finally, I would like to note that wounds have already been found on the corpses of passengers as from an explosion, and the satellite of our American "colleagues" detected a thermal flash at the moment of the destruction of the board. So there are fewer and fewer questions.
the guest , 00:44, November 4, 2015
For Vlad391 you don't pay it yourself, why write nonsense ?! How can a satellite see the explosion of several tens of grams of explosives ?! Or do you think there was an IED weighing a ton? And about the explosion, LifeNews wrote and the sauce with a reference to a certain anonymous author and quickly cut the article. Here and without this news for the last day, what kind of shit has not been sketched. On grain in your mouth drags kaku from the yellow media?
Published on 10/26/18 4:37 PMThe Air Niugini crash occurred at the end of September.
An Australian dive helped rescue passengers from a plane crash in Micronesia before rescue divers arrived to search for the sinking plane. Air Niugini Flight 73 was unable to gain sufficient altitude in international airport Chuuk on the island of Veno. The plane climbed 145 meters and crashed into the lagoon on 28 September.
Former diver Adam Milburn, who lives in Micronesia (near Australia), also found himself aboard a falling plane during an emergency landing on the water. The man immediately intcbatch rushed to the aid of the victims immediately after landing in the lagoon. The horrifying footage shocked users around the world, showing US Navy rescuers boarding a Boeing 737 after Mr. Milburn had already helped evacuate nearly all passengers.
A fisherman from Micronesian Ostrava Wenjo immediately rushed to the rescue when the plane finally landed on the water near the coast. One by one, Milburn bravely pulled passengers out of the sinking ship, while Air Niugini's crew panicked and couldn't help their passengers. The brave man also returned to the plane with the US Navy sailors in order to check on the survivors and help with the search for the missing.
Rescuers swam the entire length of the plane in search of possible casualties until the water in the cabin reached dangerous flooding levels.
"Like everyone else, I was confused: how did we get here? What's going on? What are we doing and should we do right now on the plane floating on the water?" Milburn told ABC.
The man also claimed that after the crash, the crew urged passengers to remain in their seats in a seated position, no further instructions were received on the sinking board. As soon as the man realized that he should rely only on himself, he grabbed his life vest and started helping people. Milburn also wondered if he had a chance to help the Indonesian who died in the incident (the only passenger killed on board).
I literally touched everyone who came out of the emergency door on the left wing, or helped them get into life raft, or physically transferred them, the most important thing for me was that no one fell out of the wing and drowned, I was absolutely sure of what I was doing. "
US Navy rescuers helped evacuate passengers ashore, and many suffered head and neck injuries after being hit by a fall. Milburn told the media that the crew did not help or even check the names of the passengers.
American journalist Bill James was also on board the sunken plane, later it was he who called Milburn's actions heroic.
"I know Adam, and I guess that he will be the last person who will call himself something like a hero, but given that the plane was in the water, and people in a critical situation, I would call his actions heroic," the reporter said. ...
Air Niugini, Papua New Guinea's national airline, initially announced that all 35 passengers and 12 crew members had been safely evacuated. However, it later emerged that one passenger had died. According to the Micronesian government, Eko Kahyanto Singga's body was recovered from a sunken plane by US Navy divers.
The Daily Mail contacted Air Niugini for comment.
Officials investigating the crash explained that the plane landed in the ocean after flying over a Micronesian runway. The government said 9 people were injured in the crash, 4 of which were this moment are in critical condition.
It is worth noting that on the island near the crash site, people also rushed to the rescue, jumping into fishing boats and heading towards the sinking plane. Later with the help of US Navy rescuers locals used their boats to transport people from the plane to the shore.
The exact cause of the accident is being investigated. Air Niugini claims that reduced visibility due to heavy rain caused the pilot to miss the runway.
Chuuk State (also known as Truk) is one of the 4 states Federated States Micronesia, with 50,000 inhabitants and 46 square miles. The plane began to descend near the island of Veno in Chuuk Bay, where most of population.
