He did not admit guilt: the sender was convicted in the case of the An-26 crash in the Khabarovsk area. In September 2021, an An-26 plane crashed in the Khabarovsk area. There were six crew members on board, all of whom died. A few days ago a dispatcher who worked at the time at the air traffic service center of Khabarovsk was sentenced. He pleaded not guilty. We will remind you that the plane collided with the slope of Mount Khartovia (the Great Hachier mountain range). A criminal case was opened against the former dispatcher and the commander of the airline's flight testing and flight systems unit. According to the investigation, the dispatcher did not prohibit the dangerous maneuver that led to the collision. The air flight commander, in turn, did not conduct preliminary training for the flight. However, during the trial, both defendants disagreed with the charges. However, the court had enough evidence to find the sender guilty and give him a two-year suspended sentence. He was also banned from flying planes for two years. The commander was acquitted - no signs of wrongdoing were seen in his actions. Stay up-to-date on events everywhere: OK VK max.
