The Moskovsky Komsomolets: Guilty of A-320 Crash Should Be Sought for on Land

PanARMENIAN.Net - A month after the catastrophe of the passenger plane of Armavia Air Company, which resulted in death of 133 people, officials did not announce the cause of the tragedy. All unofficial versions are lead to one - pilots' fault, the Moskovsky Komsomolets writes. However, decoding of flight recorders evidence that those guilty in death of people should be sought for on land. Three weeks have passed since A-320 airborne recorders were decoded in France and the data was submitted to the Inter-State Aviation Committee. The latter has not provided an official explanation of the causes of the catastrophe up to now, while the analysis by MK experts shows the human factor is not the only cause. In the opinion of test pilot Alexander Akimenkov, the A-320 crew merely lacked altitude. «There are no suicides among pilots and if the crew dies, taking away hundreds of passengers with them, those guilty should be sought among those living on land,» Akimenkov said.



The flight and the air crash of A-320 will be soon modeled in France, based on the decoded data of the flight recorders. To that end sound and technical parameters will be compared. According to specialists, in 3-4 days the Inter-State Aviation Committee will make its final conclusion on the causes of the tragedy.



On May 3 night Airbus-320 owned by Armavia national carrier crashed in the Black Sea 6 km away from Adler airport killing all of 113 people aboard, including 6 children and 8 crewmembers. Among them were 26 Russian citizens, one Ukrainian and one Georgian citizen, while the rest were Armenian citizens.
