    Irkutsk. Airbus A-310. Some 150 dead, 43 survived. Survivors say that a plane has nearly stopped, all passengers started to release their safety belts when engines uncontrollably gained full take off thrust... The plane left runway, collided with some structures and was consumed by fire.

    No one knows what has happened so far. But I am not sure about brakes' effectiveness when engines are going to full take off thrust. For some reason pilots have failed to cut engines off as well.

    If they heared full thrust i think the pilot used thrust-reverser to stop the plane not to take off.

    If you could read russian, you would find out that all maintenance checks (A, C-level) were run by authorised personel (the plane was a leased one, i.e. not the property of Siberia-airlines).

    Survivors say the plane was close to a stand still when it rushed forward.

    The flightrecorde will show what type of mistake it was. In such type of situation people see and hear everything and after they escaped from the horror crash you can't think these people keep cool. The problem is that most planecrashes are humanerrors but not all. The biggest problem of mechanic-failures are no maintenance, faked spare parts and wrong materials. In some planes are still materials to isolate heat or cables that can burn.

    This time Siberia didn't get a shot from a SAM targeted by Ukrainian command...

    In 1997 an An-124 Ruslan crashed into a 5-floor houses district in Irkutsk. That time some bastards used "summer" fuel in winter, -30C... It froze and - voila, over 100 people dead and several houses destroyed...

    You're wrong Boroda... it wasn't in 1997 that Siberia lost a plane due to hit by an Ukrainian G2A missile... it was in the famous Flight 1812, on June, 21st 2004.

    But Siberia has lost at least 6 planes in accidents since 1997... not an airline I would like to fly with.

    anyway, the victims of an airline disaster deserve respect... no matter if the plane, the pilot or the ground crew is responsible for the accident
