More images and videos have emerged showing the Ural Airlines Airbus A320 which made a successful off-airport emergency landing earlier this week.
The jet, RA-73805 (c/n 2166) was carrying 161 passengers and six crew members when it came down in a field in Siberia on September 12, while attempting to divert to an airport following a hydraulic system failure.
In newly released drone footage, the field – which according to the airline was “selected from the air” – can be clearly seen.
At a press conference on Tuesday, the general director of the carrier Sergei Skuratov revealed that the aircraft’s green hydraulic system failed while the jet was on approach to Omsk.
