Something about third pilot who didn't survive, and 5 persons injured on the ground. RuAF denied that, "all three pilots survived, no casualties nor damage to property on the ground". Looks like no accurate information was provided till now. P.S. Confirmed: http://www.aviaport.ru/news/2009/08/16/179292.html — colonel Igor Tkachenko tragically dies.

Frazer Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) Just returned from what was supposed to be a wonderful day, seeing the Russian Knights final trainings for MAKS. As we all know it turned into a tragic accident. After the Russian Knights made their final split, the leader Igory Tkachenko, together with the slot Igor Shpak, made a right turn completing the loop exiting the area for the Swifts to take over. The moment the Swifts completed their first loop I noticed a small dark cloud in the air of where the two Su-27's flew away. Then I saw one of the two Su-27's in a rolling dive just above the tree line..... After moments of unbelieve my fear came true....a dark cloud appeared at the horizon... May Igory Tkachenko rest in peace.... Edited August 18, 2009 by Frazer 1 Forum | Videos | DCS:BS Demo1 / Demo2 | YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Namenlos Ein Posted August 16, 2009 Author Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) Black Sunday in Russian skies Two people have been killed in another plane accident on Sunday in the Kaluga Region, southwest of Moscow. A Yak-52 light-engine trainer aircraft crashed during a training flight, killing a student – Anton Khachkovsky, a cadet from the Ulyanovsk Aviation Institute – and Svetlana Fedorenko, his instructor. The 37-year-old Fedorenko was a European Champion in aerobatics. Anton is reportedly the son of Dmitry Khachkovsky, a former “Russian Knights” pilot. The Yakovlev Yak-52 crashed shortly after takeoff. Officials said there were no casualties or damage on the ground. A rescue team, along with police, are working at the scene of the crash. Also, a criminal case has been launched to investigate the cause of the accident.
