MOSCOW, October 21 (RIA Novosti) – The Interstate Aviation Committee (MAK), an air disaster investigation authority of Russia and other ex-Soviet states, has set up a special commission to investigate Tuesday’s air crash in Vnukovo.
“A commission to investigate this aviation disaster was set up by the Interstate Aviation Committee right after it was informed [of the crash] and has immediately started its work,” the committee said in a statement.
“At the moment, the Interstate Aviation Committee has obtained the plane’s black boxes (a flight data recorder and a cockpit voice recorder). The recorders are being taken to MAK’s technical research center,” the statement reads.
The committee said it had formally notified France about the crash and French experts will join the investigation soon.
