According to the expert, whose words leads publication Lenta.ru, the cause of the incident was the actions of unqualified employees.
“The MiG-29 fighter has existed since the early 1980s, that is, for 40 years now, its more advanced modifications are constantly being produced. So the problem here is not at all in the aircraft, but in the technical support, repair systems. Probably, in this case we are talking that the repairs were carried out by unskilled employees who did not comply with fire safety rules, “the specialist noted.
Let us remind you that on August 18 in the Astrakhan region during a planned flight crashed the MiG-29 plane, the pilot was killed.
