Owners of "Kogalymavia" on Monday gave their version of the causes of the disaster of A321 in Egypt: the technique was OK, professional crew flew it, the incident that occurred in 2001 has not any relation with this the plane, ship was destroyed by external influence.
This version, was, however, denied by the Egyptian Commission of Inquiry. Experts are currently discussing how the two versions are equally probable. Details ...

This Snagovsky stressed that "Kogalymavia" eliminates the human factor and technical factor as the cause of the crash.

The day before, we recall, airline Kogalymavia said in a letter that the crashed aircraft was operated by experienced pilots, whose actions could not be the cause of the disaster.

However, this version does not fit in with the information from the flight recorders. Reuters reports that the Egyptian Commission of Inquiry reported that according to the first data analyzed, the liner was not exposed to external influence and did not send a distress signal before it hit the ground.

Version of the airline

Deputy Director General of the airline's technical and production issues Andrei Averyanov explained version of the airline in more detail: during the transition of A321 aircraft airline "Kogalymavia" fell over the Sinai Peninsula because aircraft likely got significant structural damage, so the crew completely lost control. Moreover, less than in a minute occurred braking of the A321 aircraft that flew by more than 300 kilometers per hour and fell by 1.5 km. Thus any attempt to get in touch, and to report an emergency to the ground control was not possible.

"In the event A321, most likely got substantial structural damage, which it did not allow to continue the flight. And, apparently, in this regard, at the same time the beginning of the catastrophic situation the crew was completely unable to function, these can explain the fact that there was no attempt to get in touch, and to report an emergency to ground control", - he explained.

The survey analysis crew working on A321 that crashed in Egypt, confirmed that the plane was in perfect mechanical condition. In last five flights there no any comments in the logbook of the crew of the A321.

The airline also said that in October 26 aircraft engines have been tested for problems and none have been identified.

In "Kogalymavia 'claim that the repairs carried out in 2001 after the tail during the landing of the aircraft touched the runway (then it belonged to a Lebanese carrier), could not be the cause of the disaster, as the shortcomings have since been found and been repaired.

"Regarding the fatigue cracks it should be noted that the work on the assessment of fatigue cracks in aircraft are held once every five years. We have such work carried out with great care on this plane, last was done in March of 2014 ", - said the director of flight of the" Kogalymavia "Alexander Smirnov.

"When designing the aircraft airworthiness standards are determined to ensure that during the interval between inspections, no fatigue cracks can develop to a critical size," - he added.

The attack is not excluded

"Let's wait for the official results of the investigation and what the Commission is to tell us about it, I would not like to speculate, it is not in my competence," - suggested Smirnov.

Responding to a questions, could there be a terrorist attack, Smirnov said: "It could be anything."

Version of the attack is not excluded in the Kremlin, although the president's press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, said that, we must first wait for the results of the investigation.

Recall, on Saturday, the agency France-Presse, without reference to the source published the information that the responsibility for the destruction of the aircraft that fell from the Sinai skies announced ISIL. This information has not been confirmed, and Russian Minister of Transport declared that there is no evidence that the plane was shot down by them. In addition, Russia's Investigative Committee opened a case under Art. 263 (violation of flight regulations and preparation for them) and h. 3 tablespoons. 238 of the Criminal Code (services that do not meet safety requirements).

However, experts do not exclude the other cause - an explosion on board.

Currently, experts are discussing two versions - the destruction of the aircraft in the air as a result of terrorist attack and because of the technical problems of the aircraft.

The former head of the French Bureau of Investigation and analysis of the safety of civil aviation, Jean-Paul Troadek said that, according to the information that is known at the moment, it may conclude that a plane did not crashed into a nosedive.

"Obviously, the plane did not crash into a nosedive. Small fragments do not suggests that the plane fell into a nose dive. That's all I can say at this stage, "- said he to the publication Troadek Belgian La Derniere heure.

"Investigation of the wreckage and the flight recorder data can quickly determine which hypothesis is more likely: a crime or an accident", - he said.

Allen Builyar, engaged in France accident investigation, said to the New York Times, that he did not really imagine what technical problems could lead to the destruction of flying modern aircraft such as the Airbus A321-200. "The destruction in the mid air due to a technical failure seems to me extremely unlikely", - he added.

At the same time, the former head of the US National Transportation Safety Board Mark Rouzenker said that he is more inclined to think that the cause of the accident was just a technique, not a terrorist attack, leading to his version that the plane was damaged in 2001 - when landing at high speed in Cairo tail touched the runway. Then the plane was operated by the carrier Middle East Airlines. However, Rouzenker did not deny the possibility of a terrorist attack.

President of the "Partner of Civil Aviation", Honored Pilot of the USSR Oleg Smirnov in an interview with LOOK said he did not rule out as a versions of the attack, and the technical problems. According to him, it is necessary to check out whether the repair of the aircraft after the accident in 2001, opening casing: if the repair is limited to replacement of the tail, the experts could not see the cracks that formed on the fuselage. These microcracks could, eventually, lead to tragedy. Moreover, Smirnov did not rule depressurization, for example, if there was an explosion of the engine, after which the turbine blades could pierce skin of the aircraft, and the aircraft because of this was torn in airflow.

Meanwhile, the main legislative body of Russia continue to discuss measures that could make the country aviation industry safer. On Saturday, the deputy Alexei Pushkov suggested to prohibit operation of aircraft older then 15 years, and on Sunday he added that it is necessary to leave the market to two or three carriers.

Member of the State Duma Security Committee, Anatoly said that the election was not so categorical. In an interview with views he expressed the view that such restrictions should be discussed with professionals from aviation. He also drew attention to the need to combat the supply of counterfeit spare parts for aircraft.

Member of the State Duma Transport Committee, Oleg Nilov has taken the initiative to introduce a state monopoly on passenger air travel: "I believe that we need to consider - and with such a proposal I have made - for the return of the state monopoly. In any case, those companies which carry out passenger transportation should be under one hundred percent control of the state "- said Nilov, noting that in recent years Russia has one of the first places on the number of accidents. "If you count the number of flights and the number of people, I'm afraid that this will be the first place" - said the parliamentarian.

Nilov said that the experience of a state monopoly for air travel has been, including during the Soviet era. "As an alternative, I propose a compromise: 51% - in the hands of the state, 49% - in the hands of private investors, entrepreneurs," - said the deputy.

"It's hard to do this will be through some kind of a law, amendments to the law. Would be correct to apply to the government with this initiative, and, if it considers it possible, it prepare its decisions or decisions and, if necessary, legislation ", - he explained TASS.

Member of the State Duma Committee on Budget and Tax Yevgeny Fyodorov suggested that small airlines, the park which consists of three to ten planes, can not ensure safety in full. "There are companies - three to five to ten aircraft. It is clear that they can not get full security. You need to have some consolidated airlines in the banking industry. Wrong strategic line itself, "- he said.

"For the last year of the incident in the airline industry have increased by 35%", - concluded the deputy.
