The pilots who managed to land a crippled Russian Tu-154M airliner in the middle of Taiga forest are back in Moscow. All 81 people on board miraculously survived after a mid-air failure of major electrical systems. RT caught up with the crew and passengers to get first-hand details of the lucky landing.

  • @SuperBigronnie

    They are way more reliable in flighthours and miles flown on average than your DeHavilland Comet and other civilian airliners were.

    You are hereby flagged for being an ignorant fool. And littering the net with your nonsense.

  • What a surprise.... Another Russian airliner goes down. Skilled pilots. Shity equipment.

  • Only in Russia!

  • This guy looks like Mr.Bean !!

  • Excellent report from the RT people. Excellent flying by the crew.

  • I would want to get in any of russian air craft

  • russian planes suck, rip lokomotiv

  • Russian pilots are supposed to be very good pilots. Quite a few of them flew for the Russian Air force, and are highly skilled. It is a shame that they were treated quite poorly 20 odd years ago when the russain airline industry was a mess. But they still kept on flying with the airlines, with very low pay (lower than what an american regional pilot get), just because they loved flying.

  • @McLarenMercedesThere is one flaw with this statement, you had to look for the worst air plane built in the last 50 years to find one wich i almost as bad as the planes flewn in Russia today. Says a lot about russion aviation...

  • @AKPaper Hahahaha

  • 1:20 Russia Today cant afford fsx?
