He also disagreed with the version that the plane made an emergency landing due to hydraulic problems – in his opinion, this could not be the only reason for the situation.
“The hydraulic system has triple redundancy,” the expert emphasized. – Secondly, say something about the pilots’ mistake… The commission will handle it. Thank you for ensuring a safe landing. Landing such a plane in an open area… It is a normal procedure for the Investigation Committee to step in. <…>“, – Kostylev.
Russia’s Honored Pilot Yuri Sytnik, former flight director of Vnukovo Airlines, also admits that hydraulics were not the only reason for the emergency landing. Reminding that there are spare hydraulic systems, Erdoğan emphasized that in case one of them malfunctions, there are two spare systems.
” Why him (airplane – editor’s note)) Did he fly from Omsk to Novosibirsk without fuel, Sytnik asks? – Instructions are available, but the decision is made by the ship commander. Time will tell why he decided to fly to Novosibirsk.”
