Video of the landing of the Aeroflot SU1492 which happened in Sheremetyevo Airport in Moscow was doing the rounds on social media.
The aircraft, caught fire after landing, leaving 41 passengers dead, while others were rushed to safety.
Flight SU1492 was operated by a Sukhoi Superjet 100-95B with registration RA-89098. This aircraft flew for the first time in June 2017.
Meanwhile, a little over a week after Aeroflot Superjet 100 caught fire in Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport, killing 41 person onboard, another Aeroflot SSJ 100 aircraft encounters mid-air incident, making successful emergency landing in Moscow.
An Aeroflot Superjet 100-95 was en route from Moscow to Samara (Russia) when some 30 minutes into the flight it turned back and landed in Sheremetyevo International Airport (SVO) on May 13, 2019.
The reason for the turnaround and subsequent emergency landing was the loss of cabin pressure, Aviation Herald reported, also noting that no one was injured during the incident.
