Talk:Sknyliv airshow disaster
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
People, I removed the Russian spare parts issue. It is not evidently relevant to the case. And it seems like Russian propaganda. If you disagree - please prove that the info mentioned is directly associated with that very plane. Best wishes, AlexPU
The article says 'The aircraft, flown by two experienced pilots, was reported to have lost power before clipping trees, at which point the crew ejected'. Actually the crew ejected later, when the plane hit ground by the left wing.
I've reviewed the video, and, to me, it sounds like the Flanker's engines die right after the 0:50 mark. You can hear what sounds like engine noise a shortly thereafter as the Flanker rapidly picks up speed during the dive, but couldn't that be caused by air rushing into the engines?

Please, no, no pictures. This is a horrific thing... Limbs, people cut in half... I, for one, am voicing out against pictures of this.
