Sri Lanka/ Athurugiriya

A Sri Lankan Air Force Antonov An-32, a twin-engine turboprop transport plane (SCM-864) with five crew on board crashed in the early hours in Athurugiriya, 18 kilometres from Sri Lanka's capital.

The military aircraft was flying to Ratmalana, the domestic airport, from the country's main international airport in Katunayake.

The crash may have occurred due to poor weather. The last communication from the flight was that the pilot could not see Ratmalana airport due to the poor visibility.

Police said 4 of the crew members died and one survived. The crash damaged three houses but no civilians were injured.

The captain of the aircraft Squadron Leader J.M.W.M. Abeywardena, co-pilot Flight Lieutenant A.A.D. Taranga Amaratunga, Flight Sergeant M.W.L. Priyantha and Corporal W.W.A.L. Wijerathna were the four people killed in the crash. The fifth person, L.A.C. Chathuranga survived the crash and is undergoing treatment at the Colombo National Hospital.

Indonesia AirAsia flight QZ8501 crashed killing 162

27.12.2014/ 23:18 UTC

Indonesia/ Java Sea

An Indonesia AirAsia Airbus A320-216 (PK-AXC), performing flight QZ8501, crashed into the Java Sea with 162 people on board, halfway into a Dec. 28 flight from Surabaya, Indonesia, to Singapore. Dozens of bodies have been recovered, and search teams have detected the plane's wreckage. At 06:12 the crew contacted Jakarta ACC, stating that they were deviating to the left of their planned route to avoid clouds. The flight also requested a climb to FL380. Last radar contact with the aircraft was at 06:18 hours Surabaya time. Of the 162 passengers and crew on board, 155 were Indonesians, with three South Koreans, one Singaporean, one Malaysian, one Briton and a Frenchman -- co-pilot Remi Plesel. The mangled tail of an AirAsia plane with the flight data recorder were lifted out of the Java Sea. On Tuesday, 13 January 2015, divers lifted the second black box to the surface and took it to the navy warship Banda Aceh. The device was brought to Pangkalan Bun town, the search headquarters, before being transferred to a plane and flown to Jakarta. Officials say both black boxes are in good condition. The flight data recorder holds a wealth of information on many of the plane's instruments, while the cockpit voice recorder stores radio transmissions and sounds in the cockpit. While the cause of the crash is not known, the national weather bureau has said seasonal storms were likely to be a factor.

AirAsia 8501 crash: It's not just pilot error

Airbus A320 AirAsia потерпел крушение, погибли 162

27.12.2014/ 23:18 UTC

Индонезия / Яванское море

Airbus A320 выполнявший рейс QZ8501 авиакомпании Indonesia Air Asia из Индонезии в Сингапур потерпел крушение в Яванском море недалеко от острова Калимантан (Борнео). Его обломки находятся на глубине 33 -37 метров. От этого места были подняты хвостовая часть разбившегося самолета и бортовые самописцы. Все на борту 162 человека погибли. Более 48 тел погибших извлекли из воды участники операции по поиску жертв крушения самолета у берегов Индонезии. Экипаж самолета приблизительно в 6:12 по местному времени (02:12 по Москве) послал диспетчеру запрос на увеличение высоты полета- набрать до 11,5 тыс. метров и отклонится от курса в левую сторону. Но в ответ экипажу разрешили только сменить курс влево и продолжать двигаться на той же высоте (9,7 тыс. метров), поскольку на запрашиваемом эшелоне находился другой борт. Как выяснилось, пропавший самолет компании AirAsia был застрахован той же компанией, что и два предыдущих малазийских «Боинга», - пропавший в марте над Индийским океаном с 239 пассажирами на борту (он до сих пор не найден) и рухнувший в июле под Донецком. Эту информацию подтвердили в немецкой страховой компании Allianz. По некоторым данным, сумма страховой выплаты по пропавшему Airbus-320 составит порядка 100 миллионов долларов. Столько же страховщику предстоит выплатить в качестве компенсации за потерю "Боинга" над Индийским океаном. За гибель 283 пассажиров „Боинга” под Донецком компания выплатит в качестве компенсации около 50 миллионов долларов. Кроме того, Malaysia Airlines может получить от компании почти 100 миллионов долларов за самолет. Жители острова Белитунг утверждают, что слышали грохот, похожий на звук взрыва, примерно в то же время, когда была потеряна связь с самолетом AirAsia. Чем может быть вызвана предполагаемая катастрофа, пока неизвестно. Возможно, всему виной непогода, ведь известно о сильной турбулентности, о которой говорил экипаж. Некоторые  авиационные эксперты считают, что причиной крушения самолета авиакомпании AirAsia стал человеческий фактор.

Пътнически самолет падна в Яванско море, загинали са 162

27.12.2014/ 23:18 UTC

Индонезия / Яванско море

Airbus A320-216 (PK-AXC), на авиокомпанията Indonesia Air Asia изпълняващ полет QZ8501 от Сурабая, Индонезия, за Сингапур е паднал в Яванско море югозападно от остров Калимантан (Борнео). Останките му са открити на длбочина 33 -37 метра. От мястото са изведени на повърхността опашната част на разбилия се самолет и бордовите му самописци. Открита е основната част от фюзелажа. Няма оцелели. На борда се намирали 162 човека, като сред тях имало трима южнокорейци, сингапурец, малайзиец, британец и французин – пом. пилотът Remi Plesel, а останалите били индонезийци.
Най-малко 48 тела на загинали при катастрофата са извлечени до момента на брега от издирващите екипи. Установена е самоличността на 34-ма от тях.
Към 6:12 часа местно време екипажът на самолета поискал разрешение за увеличаване на височината на полета до 11500 метра и отклоняване от курса наляво. Разрешена му е промяна на курса, но му е отказана промяна на височината на полета поради това, че в същото време на този ешелон се е намирал друг самолет.
Катастрофиралият самолет на компанията Air Asia бил застрахован в немската компания Allianz, както и предходните два злополучни самолета на Malaysia Airlines – изчезналият през март над Индийския океан с 239 души на борда (до момента не е открит и съдбата му е неизвестна) и сваленият през юли край Донецк. Говори се, че сумата на застраховката за падналия Airbus-320 е от порядъка на 100 миллиона долара.
Жители от остров Белитунг твърдят, че са чули грохот като от взрив по време съвпадащо с това на изчезването на самолета на AirAsia от екраните на радарите. Засега не е известно какво е довело до катастрофата, а според хипотезите на експертите и водените разговори с диспечера предполагаемите причини са две – лошото време съпроводено със силна турбулентност и грешка при техника на пилотиране допусната от екипажа притиснат от екстремните условия на полета.
Очаква се до 22 януари 2015, да бъдат разчетени данните от „черните кутии” и бъде публикувано предварителното заключение на експертите за причините довели до трагедията.

Неизправност довела до катастрофа на самолет на "Air Asia"
