Russian Airliner Tupolev TU-154 Airplane Flight Control Problems

http://AviationExplorer.com - Russian made Tupolev Tu-154 jet appears drunk as it lurches through the sky before safely landing at a military airfield.
The military prosecutors have launched a probe which should establish the reasons for the mid-air incident that almost led to an aviation disaster.
The spokesman said that the plane's steering system had broken down on a test flight, and praised the pilots for managing to land the plane safely.
Russia's aging fleet of Tupolev planes dates back to the 1960s and have been involved in a number of air crashes in recent years.

@TheFuckgeertwilders This plane had malfunction of hydraulics and the pilot has planted it.

@kevjay777 X2, I love the Russian people as well and resent my educational system and culture that seems to have stigmatized Russians in general just because. I've grown to admire and respect Russians through my love for aviation. We share similar dreams and ambitions. Too many people are quick to blame the planes instead of looking at the obvious dismal economic situation and chain of events leading up to system failures.
