    CHRONOLOGY OF RADIO CONNECTION OF A-320 AIRLINER


    The internet page of civil aviation department has some information of
    a radio connection between A-320 personnel and air controllers. The
    information is on chronology of events and brief content of the talk.

    The Civil Aviation General Department received the information late
    May 11 from Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC). According to that,
    the following events preceded the tragedy which cost 113 human lives.

    The first connection between the air controller and the airliner
    personnel was at 21:10:20. The airplane staff entered into connection
    at 22:12:20 for the last time. All questions addressed by the air
    controller after that time remained unanswered. By 21:17 intensive
    discussion was held on weather conditions. The dialogue ends with the
    decision to turn the plane back to Yerevan. Soon after the decision
    was made, the personnel again addressed a question on weather
    conditions. At 21:30:49 the air controller said that visibility is
    3600 and based on that the plane staff decided to continue the flight
    to Sochi. The next connection with the air controller was at 22:00:45.
    The plane was above Gukin at that time.

    The air controller authorized landing up to 1800 m and informed about
    the actual weather conditions as of 22:00. Then permission was
    received to land up to 600 m. At 22:10:45 the plane reported on
    opening its wheels. Shortly after the air controller ordered to stop
    landing and to raise the plane up to 600 m.

    The initial analyses shows that the plane set for the second round
    from about 300 m height speeding up to 450 m and later it crashed into
    the waters. /Panorama.am/
