Today, a Saratov Airlines Antonov An-148 passenger airliner crashed in the Ramenskoye region briefly after taking-off from Moscow's Domodedovo Airport on the afternoon of February 11. May the victims rest in peace. :'( The flight was bound for Orsk airport on Russia's southern border with Kazakhstan, but went missing from radar within just two minutes after taking off. It crashed in the countryside a short distance outside Moscow, with one witness reportedly claiming that there was an "explosion" when the plane was still in the air. Flightradar24 tweeted that the aircraft was descending at 1,000m per minute. The flight had been carrying a total of 71 people – 65 passengers and six crew. None has survived. It is too early to determine the cause of the accident yet. Russia's Investigative Committee has opened an investigation into the crash – there is no suggestion that it is a terror-related incident. The Russian-made plane involved was reportedly seven years old and bought by Saratov Airlines from another Russian airline a year ago. Footage of the video is from a Ukrainian Antonov An-158 performing a demonstration show at Paris Air Show 2013, Le Bourget. The An-158 is a slightly modified version of the An-148 but the same aircraft in essence. It has a stretched fuselage that allows for 99 passengers in a one-class standard configuration, compared with a standard capacity of 75 for the An-148. Other changes include the installation of wingtip fences. The airplane successfully completed its first flight on 28 April 2010. On 3 March 2011, it was given Russian certification. The Antonov An-148 (Ukrainian: Антонов Ан-148) is a regional jet designed and built by Antonov of Ukraine. Until 2017, it was also built by Russia's Voronezh Aircraft Production Association. Development of the aircraft was started in the 1990s, and its maiden flight took place on 17 December 2004. The aircraft completed its certification programme on 26 February 2007. The An-148 has a maximum range of 2,100–4,400 km and is able to carry 68–85 passengers, depending on the configuration.
