  • Sukhoi Superjet missing in Indonesia

    Reports just coming through: aircraft was in Asia on a demo flight; had left airport (presumably Jakarta) for a flight that should have lasted 30 mins; 3h later, no aircraft and fuel should have been exhausted. Reports still sketchy.

            From AVHerald:

            Indonesian Authorities reported the aircraft was enroute at 10,000 feet near Mount Salak when at about 15:30L (08:30Z) the crew requested and was cleared to descend to 6,000 feet. This proved to be the last radio transmission. Radar contact was lost when the aircraft was in a right hand turn descending through 6,200 feet.

            Mount Salak is 2,211 meters/7254 feet high.

                See the following link to Russian-language blog with photos taken a few hours ago.
                 Сегодня пересекли экватор на Сухом Суперджете. Экватор географический и экватор нашего путешествия, то есть мы уже побывали в трех странах (Казахстан, Пакистан и Мьянма) и нам осталось еще 3 страны (Индонезия, Лаос и Вьетнам). Во время пересечения экватора устроили праздник Нептуна, причем…

                I hope that these people are alive!

                  May 6, SSJ-100 rolled out of the runway in Kazan
                  May 9, SSJ-100 disappeared in Indonesia

                  oh God, what's going on?
                  Low visibility was reported, but they have EGPWS on board.
                  Too much time has passed already. But let's hope for the better. At least for the survivors.

                        Hmm time will tell. I see 004 at the shots.
                        But still this is not important.
                        Let's pray for the people who where on board.

                          It's RA-97004 in all the shots. Russian media also reports it's 004.
                          Bad news, it's already 7pm in Jakarta. Searches will be continued without helicopters.

                              In photo #22 It's 005, but it's really not important now and let's pray to good news.
