/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The inadequate actions of the pilot-in-command caused
the crash of A-320 Armenian jet. As reported by the chief department
of the civil aviation, this is the conclusion made by the members of
the Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC).
The investigation showed that when landing the plane at a height of 340
meters stopped reducing altitude and made a right turn simultaneously
gaining height. When making the turn and gaining some height the
pilot-in-command switched off the robot pilot and proceeded to
landing with complete absence of control over the horizontal and
vertical bents.
The co-pilot did not have control over the parameters essential for
landing either. As it was found out later the actions of the crew
were not coordinated and sufficient to stop landing.
According to the IAC conclusion, there was no fault with the
engines and systems of the jet. The amount of fuel was sufficient to
successfully end the flight, reported Novosti Armenia.
To note, the Interstate Aviation Committee completed the decoding of
the record boxes June 17.
