In Bashkortostan, I began to smoke, and fell on his side Ka-226.

December 17 2013. Ka-226 had to make an emergency landing near Kumertau (Bashkiria). The reason was the cockpit smoke. Aircraft surpassed airplanes with Kumertau airfield "Boules" (Samara). After some time, it began in the cockpit smoke.

The pilot and the crew decided to make an unscheduled landing. As a result of landing, there are no victims or injured, only the helicopter received minor damages, as when landing the ship turned sideways.

The causes of smoke pollution are unknown, specialists work on the spot.

The helicopter will be repaired - the main thing is that people remained alive. And again, the human factor?
