A Russian registered TU-154M operated by Persian carrier Taban Air - while landing at Mashhad, Iran - apparently the aircraft was in a holding pattern as visibility was less than 600 feet.
A passenger became gravely ill, and the crew decided to land, however the aircraft went off the side of the runway breaking off its tail and catching fire.
No fatalities however Iranian news reporting 46 persons injured.
That was a Reuters newsclip, not Al Jazeera, and what they said was accurate. We won’t sell any aircraft parts to Iran and they are forced to use Russian airliners to make up for their broken Boeings, MDs, etc.
Has nothing whatsoever to do with our being “infidels”.
Sorry, that was weak sarcasm on my part. I know what they are saying is accurate about no parts, but I agreed about the insinuation that the crash was our fault because of the lack of said parts.
