A Russian airliner carrying 170 people was forced to crash-land in a field after a hydraulics failure.
No one was injured in the emergency, which left the Ural Airlines Airbus A320 stranded next to a forest in the Novosibirsk region of Siberia.
Ural said the pilot “selected” the landing site after the jet’s hydraulic systems failed while approaching Omsk.
The incident sparked denials from the airline that it was unable to service its planes due to sanctions on Russia.
While traveling hundreds of miles an hour and not really knowing the surface conditions of the field. I dont know planes, but I do know fields and those can vary wildly.
Not in that area.
How was he to know that? He’s a pilot, not a farmer.
