SCAT Airlines Flight 760
SCAT Airlines Flight 760 was a scheduled domestic passenger flight from Kokshetau to Almaty, Kazakhstan, operated by a Bombardier CRJ200 twinjet that on 29 January 2013 crashed in thick fog near the village of Kyzyltu, while on approach to Almaty. All 16 passengers and 5 crew on board were killed.
The subsequent investigation determined that the aircraft had descended abruptly after pitching nose-down, but was unable to establish the cause of the sudden manoeuvre.
The aircraft involved was a Bombardier CRJ200 registered as UP-CJ006 with serial number 7413. The aircraft was powered by two General Electric CF34-3B1 engines. SCAT Airlines had operated the aircraft since 22 September 2012.
The aircraft was carrying 16 passengers and 5 crew members. The passenger manifest released by SCAT Airlines indicated all on board were Kazakhs.
The captain was 55-year-old Vladimir Nikolaevich Evdokimov, who had been working for SCAT Airlines since 2001 and had logged 18,194 flight hours, including 1,227 hours on the CRJ200. The first officer was 43-year-old Alexander Vladimirovich Sharapov, who had been with the airline since 2006 and had 3,507 flight hours, with 132 of them on the CRJ200.
The airliner operating the flight was on final approach to Almaty International Airport in thick fog and poor visibility when it crashed 1.6 km (1 mi; 0.9 nmi) short of the runway near the village of Kyzyltu at 13:13 local time (07:13 UTC), 14 seconds after initiating a go-around. All 16 passengers and 5 crew members aboard were killed.
According to the deputy head of Almaty's emergencies department, "there was no fire, no explosion. The plane just plunged to the earth."
Shortly after the accident, a commission headed by Bakytzhan Sagintayev, the first deputy prime minister of Kazakhstan, was set up by Prime Minister Serik Akhmetov to investigate the cause of the crash.
