As the majority of the witnesses interrogated in court conclusions called big in question POPPY that Yak-42 with an ice-hockey team broke because of inadvertent sinking of brake pedals someone from crew members, and experts of SKR practically repeated these conclusions, sometimes even word for word, injured two times made the petition for return of criminal case on additional investigation, and during debate asked not to deprive Timofeyev of freedom. Though state charge demanded for it six years in a colony settlement.
However the court drew a conclusion that preliminary investigation correctly qualified actions of the defendant as regards 3 articles 263 as violation of the rules of traffic safety and operation of air transport. Violations, according to court, were expressed that Timofeyev who was answering in the company for the organization of flight work and being responsible for maintenance of qualification of an aircrew, allowed to flights of the commander of the aircraft which has not undergone qualification testing by the pilot-instructor, and the second pilot at all did not finish retraining on type of the Yak-42 plane and had no right to sit down at a steering wheel. Besides, the crew had no joint training on the exercise machine that as a result led to a mismatch of its actions during tragic take-off from the Tunoshna airport.
the court and that the plane long could not fly up because of inadvertent sinking of brake pedals someone from crew members Agrees. According to the judge Vyacheslav Vostrikov to call in question conclusions of experts there are no bases. The only thing in what the court did not agree with preliminary investigation, - an assessment of quality of existing training training of pilots. Based on indications of witnesses, the judge drew a conclusion that on the outdated exercise machine used in the educational and training center where the lost pilots prepared, it is impossible to fulfill crew actions in the conditions of wind or dumping shift. And exercise machines which would give such opportunity, in the country simply are not present today.
as a result the court found Vadim Timofeyev guilty of violation of the rules of traffic safety and operation of air transport and sentenced to five years of imprisonment in a colony settlement.
