In Kamchatka in the area of the Pinachevsky pass, 70 km from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky made an forced landing An-2 aircraft. On board 11 people. There are no victims and dead. The aircraft was not injured. It is reported by ITAR-TASS with reference to the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergencies in the Kamchatka Territory.
The plane belongs to a private person. The message that the aircraft equipped with skiing made a forced landing came to rescuers on March 20 at 16:25 local time from eyewitnesses of the incident.
None of the people who were on board the aircraft need medical care.
Six people are evacuated to the district center Elizovo. Five more remained on the "hunting cordon" "Semenovsky" near the scene. The plane to date remains at the site of landing.
The transport prosecutor's office began a check on the fact of the incident. It was established that the light air ship made a flight from Lake Kalagir to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.
According to preliminary estimates, forced landing was committed by him due to "violation of the minimum safe height of the flight," said Arkady Koryachikhin, deputy transport prosecutor of Kamchatka. “It's just a miracle that everyone was alive,” he emphasized.
