The commander of the crashed SSJ-100 pointed to a “someone else's” guilt in the tragedy.

Against the backdrop of the emergence of information that the commander of the Aeroflot passenger plane airliner crashed at the Sheremetyevo airport in the capital, Denis Evdokimov himself said that he was not guilty - according to him, the main fault was for the one who opened the back door aircraft, which led to the intensification of combustion.

“The pilot explained the mass death of passengers by the fact that in a panic, someone opened the back door in the cabin. According to Evdokimov, the air flow formed due to this has fanned the flame. The pilot claims that the SSJ-100 case could withstand a high temperature for a long time, but this was prevented by a mistake with the door "- reports “Lenta.ru”, referring to the publication “Kommersant”.

It is noteworthy that according to the data that initially appeared, it was one of the crew members who tried to open the door of the aircraft cabin in order to evacuate passengers, however, information on this subject was not officially commented on.

Experts, in turn, note that the tragedy of the deaths could be avoided, but the approach was carried out at a significant speed.
