SORPRENDENTE ATERRIZAJE DE UN TUPOLEV TU 154

Un Tupolev Tu-154 de la compañia rusa Alrosa que realizaba la ruta Polyarny - Moscú consiguió salir existoso de lo que podiá haber sido un desastre después de que los tres motores fallasen. La tripulación se dispuso a realizar una terrizaje de emergencia en la pista de Izhma, una pista de solo 1300 metros. El avión continuó recorriendo una vez finalizada la pista atravesando la vegetación. Todos los ocupantes salieron ilesos a través de las rampas hinchables de emergencia y el avión solo ha sufrido daños materiales a causa de los impactos con la vegetación, especialmente en los bordes de ataque de las alas.
 

Seventy-two passengers on board a Russian-operated Tupolev Tu-154 have escaped injury after the tri-jet sustained damage after overrunning a short runway during an emergency landing. The accident involved a Tu-154 from the carrier Alrosa which had departed on 7 September as domestic flight 516, from the airport at Polyarny, in Yakutia, bound for Moscow Domodedovo.
Russia's transport oversight authority Rostransnadzor says that, according to the crew, the aircraft carried out the emergency landing after a power failure. It diverted to Izhma, in the Komi republic in northwestern Russia, at around 10:10 local time.
But Izhma's runway is only around 1,300m long and the aircraft overran, carving its way through surrounding vegetation before coming to rest, embedded in soft ground, with damage at least to the leading edge of its wings.
