    A year ago, on this day the greatest crash happened in the history of
    Armenian aviation, taking the lives of 113 people on board. The night
    of May 3rd, at about 3:15 Yerevan time A-320 Armavi Plane crashed in
    Adler on its way from Yerevan to Sochi.

    The disaster took the lives of all the passengers and crew. Different
    versions of the crash were suggested - from terrorism to lack of fuel.

    The black boxes of the crashed plane found in the bottom of the Black
    Sea, were taken to Paris for technical examination.

    The decoding took about two months. As a result, it was concluded
    that "the plane did not crash in the air, the engines worked up until
    the plane smashed into water. The fuel was enough to ensure the safe
    landing of the plane.

    Experts of the Interstate Aviation Committee noted that the "human
    factor" was guilty. The decoding of the flight recorders confirmed
    that the technical condition of the plane was proper. The version
    of shortage of fuel was also rejected. Specialists say that the main
    reason of the A-320 crash was "the loss of orientation in the space"
    probably because of weather conditions.
