В упавшем в Англии самолете находились два пилота и трое пассажиров
30.03.2008// 13:30 по Гринвичу Великобритания/ Кент На борту разбившегося на юге Великобритании легкомоторного частного восьмиместного самолета Cessna 500 Citation І, по последним данным, находились два пилота и трое пассажиров. Все они погибли. Авария произошла примерно в 13.30 по Гринвичу (16.30 мск) к северу от аэропорта Биггин Хилл (графство Кент, юго-восток Англии), в населенном пункте Фарнборо. Погибшие, по предварительным данным, принадлежали к одной семье. Самолет направлялся из Биггин Хилла на юго-запад Франции, в городок По. Самолет, падая, задел два дома. Очевидцы говорят о двух взрывах в момент катастрофы. По словам свидетелей трагедии, несколько близлежащих зданий охвачены огнем, один дом разрушен полностью, высоко в небо поднимаются столбы дыма. По данным Би-би-си, жители окрестных домов были эвакуированы. Семья, жившая в ныне разрушенном доме, по словам соседей, находится в отпуске. Сведений о причинах катастрофы пока нет. Вместе с тем, по предварительным данным, пилот самолета незадолго до крушения подал наземному диспетчеру сигнал бедствия, сообщив о неполадках в двигателе, и попытался вернуться в аэропорт Биггин Хилл, чтобы совершить аварийную посадку. Увидев, что самолет летит на населенный пункт, пилот, как предполагают очевидцы, сделал все возможное для того, чтобы изменить курс. |
Plane Crash Kills 5 South of London 30.03.2008// 13:30 GMT UK/ Kent A small plane crashed into a residential area south of London on Sunday, killing five people and completely destroying a house. Fire and police officials said they had found no survivors amid the flaming wreckage. The plane was carrying two pilots and three passengers. "No survivors were found, but I can confirm that there were no people involved in the houses," said Jim Bascran, of the London fire department. The private plane crashed into a house in Farnborough in Kent, just south of London, sometime after 2:30 p.m. (13:30 GMT). The neighborhood, Broadwater Gardens, lies near Biggin Hill Airport, about 12 miles (20 kilometers) from central London. The small airport was an important Royal Air Force fighter station during World War II, but now serves private jets and helicopters. Biggin Hill Airport said the plane, a Cessna 500 Citation І jet popular with business travelers, reported difficulties shortly after takeoff. "The pilot made a call to say he was experiencing a problem and requested permission to land, but unfortunately crashed before reaching the airport," Biggin Hill said in a statement. Sky News television said the plane was headed to France. Residents told the broadcaster they heard a plane flying in very low before it slammed into a house. A pilot, who gave his name only as John, told Sky he was about to land at Biggin Hill when a mayday call came over the radio from the plane that crashed. The pilot from the stricken plane said the aircraft was experiencing severe engine vibrations and alarms could be heard going off in the cockpit, John said. The pilot said he had five people onboard and wanted to make an emergency landing, he added. Karl Mills said the plane nearly hit his house. "It was the loudest noise I ever heard. It was like a bolt of thunder," Mills told Sky News. "I looked out and saw a ball of fire." He said the plane crashed into the roof of a neighboring house before bursting into flames. |

10 bodies found in UN helicopter crash in Nepal 03.03.2008//10:30 GMT Nepal/near Bethan/Ramechhap The bodies of 10 persons, who were killed in Monday's crash of a helicopter from the United Nations Mission in Nepal (UNMIN) in Ramechhap district in eastern Nepal, have been found, the Home Ministry said Tuesday. The rescue operation was carried out by a team from Bethan Area Police Office with the help of local people. Additional rescue team from Kathmandu has been sent to the site and identification of the bodies is underway. The Mi-8 helicopter (reg. RA-27019) was returning to Kathmandu from a cantonment site of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (CPN-M) in Sindhuli district, some 80 km east of capital Kathmandu when it lost contact with the UNMIN, said the mission in a press release issued Monday. The UNMIN is monitoring the peace process in Nepal. In November2006, the then Nepali government and CPN-M signed the Comprehensive Peace Accord, and CPN-M arms were confined in seven main cantonments and 21 satellite camps monitored by the United Nations. The bad weather caused actually the crash. |
В Непал се разби вертолет Ми-8 на ООН 03.03.2008// 10:30 по Гринвичу Непал/ край Бетан/ Рамечхап В източен Непал в понеделник се разби вертолет Ми-8 на ООН с бордови номер RA-27019. Намерени са 10 тела. Екипажът на вертолета бил от двама руснаци и беларусин. ООН-мисията изпълнявала мониторинг на лагерите на Комунистическата партия на Непал - Маоисти. По думите на очевидци въздушното средство се запалило след удар от мълния. В момента на катастрофата бушувала буря със силен дъжд и гръмотевици. Няколко дни след катастрофата наземният механик на вертолета се самоубил в квартирата си в Непал. До тялото му била намерена предсмъртна бележка. |
В Непале разбился вертолет с представителями миссии ООН 03.03.2008//10:30 по Гринвичу Непал/ Бетан На востоке Непала в понедельник потерпел крушение вертолет Ми-8 ( RA-27019 ) с сотрудниками миссии Организации Объединенных Наций на борту. Погибли 10 человек среди которых находились пилот из России Сергей Орешенко, бортмеханик Николай Ямщиков из России и второй пилот Дмитрий Малышев (гражданин Белоруссии). Летательный аппарат направлялся из лагеря маоистов, где сотрудники организации находились с наблюдательной миссией, в столицу страны Катманду. Около 16.00 по местному времени (13.30 мск) представительство ООН заявило, что экипаж вертолета перестал выходить на связь. Через два часа после исчезновения вертолета с радаров стали появляться сообщения о том, что он потерпел крушение. На его поиски отправились спасатели и военнослужащие непальской армии, которым пришлось добираться до места аварии на вездеходах и пешком. Скорее всего, причиной крушения вертолета стали как раз погодные условия. По словам очевидцев, воздушное судно загорелось от удара молнии – в момент падения вертолета шел сильный дождь с грозой. |

Pilots blamed in Adam Air's crash |
mmОдной из причин падения Боинга-737 в Индонезии была ошибка пилота |
25.03.2008 - An inquiry into a major plane crash in Indonesia which killed more than 100 people has found that pilot error and a faulty navigation device were to blame. The plane, a Boeing 737 operated by Adam Air, crashed into the sea on New Year's Day last year.
Investigators found that the two pilots had accidentally switched off the automatic pilot. They had been trying to rectify a fault in the navigation system. The plane then banked steeply and hit the ocean. The plane had been flying between Java and Sulawesi when it came down off the Sulawesi coast. Adam Air's planes were all grounded last week because of its poor safety record. |
25.03.2008 - Причиной катастрофы разбившегося в Индонезии в первый день 2007 года пассажирского самолета местной авиакомпании "Эдам эйр" стало сочетание двух факторов: ошибки пилота и неисправностей навигационного оборудования. Об этом сообщает в среду газета "Джакарта пост" со ссылкой на заявление Национальной комиссии по безопасности на транспорте по итогам расследования причин аварии, унесшей жизни 102 человек.
Боинг-737-400 совершал 1 января прошлого года рейс из аэропорта города Сурабая на восточной Яве в столицу провинции Северный Сулавеси Манадо, когда на высоте десяти километров отключился авиапилот. Поглощенные другими неисправностями навигационного оборудования пилоты даже не заметили этого, и в течение двух минут авиалайнер снижался по крутой спирали, в итоге разбившись о воду близ расположенного на юго-западной оконечности острова Сулавеси города Паре-Паре. Погибли все находившиеся на борту, а оказавшиеся на двухметровой глубине "черные ящики" удалось поднять лишь в августе. Расследование также выявило, что на протяжении двух месяцев перед катастрофой в навигационной системе авиалайнера имели место 154 неполадки. Однако авиакомпания не только не предприняла необходимых мер по их устранению, но даже не провела инструктаж пилотов относительно того, как действовать в подобных случаях. В связи с опасениями относительно безопасности пассажиров министерство транспорта Индонезии на прошлой неделе запретила "Эдам эйр" совершать полеты, дав авиакомпании три месяца на устранение проблем. Однако сталкивающаяся также с острыми финансовыми проблемами авиалиния, скорее всего, окажется не в состоянии сделать это. //RIAN.ru |
13 killed as Ukraine helicopter crashes in Black Sea 27.03.2008//09:30 GMT A Ukrainian helicopter crashed in the Black Sea on Thursday killing 13 and leaving only one survivor, officials at Ukraine's Border Troops command said. The accident happened in the north-western Black Sea, near the mouth of the Danube River. A total 14 persons, 3 flight crew and 11 passengers, had been aboard the aircraft at the time of the crash. 12 of the dead were identified as border security staff, and another person killed was a civilian. The Ukrainian border troops Mi-8 helicopter had been carrying personnel and two tonnes of supplies to Zmeyniy Island, a rocky outcrop claimed by some 60 kilometres south of the Danube's mouth. The flight from the mainland to Zmeyniy Island by Mi-8 lasts approximately 45 minutes. It was not clear when exactly, or for what reason, the helicopter had crashed. The downed helicopter was visible in shallow water, and had apparently almost reached the island before hitting the water, witnesses said. Two motor launches and a pair of helicopters participated in a search of the area. Searchers had recovered all 13 of the bodies, according to a Ukraine navy statement. One of the helicopters carried the single survivor to a hospital in Ukraine's Odesa province, where he was being treated for multiple injuries and listed in "very serious condition." The Mi-8 is a cargo/passenger aircraft with a maximum capacity of 24 persons. Though of now-obsolescent Soviet design it is considered highly reliable, by local standards. The crashed chopper, manufactured in 1983 and fully overhauled in 2006, had undergone all scheduled maintenance and preflight checks, and had been certified as safe to fly. Ukraine has seen unsettled weather in recent days, with snows even in lowlands and temperatures hovering slightly above freezing, alternating with sunny weather from 10 - 13 degrees Centigrade. Zmeyniy Island is the site of a Border Troops station maintained by Ukraine on the 1.5 square kilometre rock to buttress a Kiev claim to territorial waters in the region. |

Украински хеликоптер се разби в Черно море 27.03.2008//09:30 по Гринуич Вертолет Ми-8 на украинската гранична служба се разби в плитчините на Черно море, в устието на река Дунав при изпълнение на полет от Одеса за остров Змеинъй, на който е разположена тяхна застава. Вертолетът излетял около 11:00 ч и се очаквало да пристигне на острова към 11:45. На борда му имало 2 тона товар и 14 души, от които 3-членния екипаж, 10 военннослужащи от граничната служба и гражданско лице -специалист от украинския телеком. Счита се, че въздушното средство е било изправно и не е било претоварено изхождайки от тактико-техническите му данни. В 12:20 местно време (съвпада с това на София) са излетели два вертолета - дежурният на министерството на извънредните ситуации и един на граничните служби и започнали издирването на исчезналия вертолет. След 2-3 часа останките му са открити в плитчините край остров Полуденнъй. Падането на вертолета е забелязано от местни рибари, които първи са стигнали до мястото на катастрофата, благодарение на лодките си и открили оцелелият като по чудо лейтенант Евгений Чеварский, роден 1985 г. Последният е откаран с вертолет до районната болница в кома трета степен и с редица тежки наранявания. Няколко часа по късно офицерът дошъл в съзнание и според лекарите състоянието му е тежко, но ще се възстанови. Останалите 13 души на борда са загинали при катастрофата и телата им са опознати. Назначена е комисия за разследване на причините довели до трагедията. |
