An Irish investigation team arrived in Cairo early Tuesday morning to participate in investigations of the Russian plane crash in Sharm El-Sheikh, state news agency MENA reported.

Sources from Cairo international airport told MENA that a team of three Irish experts arrived from Italy where they were received by officials from Egypt's ministry of civil aviation.

The Irish technical team is participating in the investigation since the Airbus A321 crash plane was registered in Ireland.

The plane was owned by Irish firm Wilmington Trust SP Services (Dublin) Ltd. and leased to Russian airline Metrojet.

The crash killed all 224 people - mostly Russian - on board the Russian Kogalymavia flight from Sharm El-Sheikh to St. Petersburg on Saturday.

Egypt, along with Russia, and France (which manufactured the plane), are conducting an investigating into the causes of the crash.

Earlier this week, the Irish aviation authority revealed that because the plane was Irish-registered, "in April/May 2015, the authority conducted an annual review of the aircraft certifications in support of its annual Certificate of Airworthiness renewal process and all certifications were satisfactory at that point in time.”

This means that Irish company was ding the maintenance.
During which the Flight Termination Module could be installed w/o knowledge of the user.
Plane was ideal for installation of small Bumb as it had tail grazing event in 2001, when was still not used by Russians.

This explains the 3000 feet climb in 3 secs (driven by Flight Termination Module from outside), and vertical fall (no tail).
In this way the tail structure was drawn over its limits, which was helped by the small explosive charge in tail section.
This small explosive charge was installed, as the the FTM, during the owner's maintenance procedure.
