What: Ural Airlines Airbus A321-200 en route from Dubai (United Arab Emirates) to Ekaterinburg (Russia)
Where: Ekaterinburg
When: Nov 6 2010 at 4:25
Who: 143 passengers and 8 crew
Why: While landing at Ekaterinburg while the runway was covered in ice, and although ATC informed the “that the runway condition was good and permitted a safe landing,” the plane did not respond to proper braking and overran the runway.
Russian investigators are investigating.
Apparently Russian airport crews don’t bother to salt, plow or otherwise make their runways more safe. Or maybe this was just a particularly lazy crew.
What: Air India Airbus A310-300 en route from Kozhikode India to Riyadh Saudi Arabia
Where: Nedumbasseri International Airport at Kochi
When: Oct 2nd 2010
Who: 197 passengers (11 in J, 180 in economy, and six infants) and 12 crew
Why: The flight originated in Nedumbasseri at 4.30am and went from there to Kozhikode. Forty-five minutes after leaving Kozhikode, the crew reported fumes in the cabin. The two Indian pilots diverted to Kochi, made a safe landing and passengers were evacuated. Emergency vehicles, including fire trucks, were on standby as the flight landed. The plane was isolated for maintenance, which found a problem in engine 2 on the right.
Passengers reported a high degree of alarm from the rapid descent, the cabin pressure, and the fire alarm. They were provided an alternative flight.
