In the Voronezh region crashed Yak-130
Recall that in September last year, a similar disaster occurred in the area of the Borisoglebsk aviation base. Then the crash suffered Yak-130, which was piloted by a cadet of the 5-th course of the flight school and an experienced major - an instructor of the aviation base. Both pilots ejected around the administrative border of the Voronezh and Volgograd regions.
The Ministry of Defense confirms:
Pilots ejected.
It is noted that the commander reported on the occurrence of a technical failure in one of the units of the machine, preventing the continuation of the flight. In turn, the flight director gave the command to eject.
To clarify the causes and circumstances of the incident, a special commission of the flight safety service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation began work.
Earlier, pilots of the Borisoglebsk aviation base repeatedly expressed certain complaints against the technical equipment and other aspects of the Yak-130 training and combat aircraft.
