Pilots of crashed aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces
The search continues for the crew of the combat trainer L-39, which crashed into the Sea of Azov during a training flight.
Currently, military divers and search teams are working at the site of the alleged fall. In total, about two hundred people and several tens of special units are involved in the search operation equipment - boats and helicopters.
The wreckage of a plane and the parachute of one of the pilots have already been discovered. However, the fate of the pilots themselves remains unknown. Rescuers are worried by the fact that despite the relatively warm weather for this time of year, a prolonged stay in the water still threatens overcooling.
The aircraft belonged to the Yeisk center for combat training and retraining of flight personnel (pulp and paper base and PLC) of the Naval Aviation of the Russian Navy. The flight was performed by two servicemen with the rank of lieutenants who were trained in the center, and was held at extremely low altitude.
The cause of the accident, presumably, could be a bird that got into the L-39 engine. As a result, the plane crashed into the sea. Judging by the found parachute, the pilots managed to eject. The catastrophe occurred on October 18 at about 17.00 Moscow time.
