Lucky Landing: Plane crashes in woods

Prosecutors are investigating the crash landing of a Russian airliner in the north-west of the country. There were 81 people on board the Tupolev-154M, which came down in the Republic of Komi. The jet was on its way to Moscow when it apparently suffered an electrical failure, forcing the pilots to divert it to the nearest airport. Their only option was an airfield designed for much smaller craft. The crash-landing saw the plane cross the short airstrip, and roll off several hundred metres into the woods. None of the people on board were injured, and the pilots have been praised for their efforts.

Russian way to think "Prosecutors are investigating".

[ValeraKojin]

Самолет сел на короткую грунтовую полосу для малых самолетов, из-за отказа электрооборудования, вместо авиагоризонта использовался стакан с водой, закрылки не были выпущены. Полосу пилоты обнаружили случайно. Аэродром не эксплуатируется. Но охраняется.
