Tengrinews.kz - Kazakhstan will send the black boxes of the Azerbaijan Airlines plane that crashed near Aktau to the Aviation Accident Investigation and Prevention Center in Brazil (CENIPA). This was announced by the Ministry of Transport.
The ministry stated that, in accordance with the standards of Annex 13 of the Chicago Convention, the country conducting the investigation is responsible for reading the flight data recorders and making the decision on which country will read and decode the black boxes.
Kazakhstan ratified this convention in 1992 and is a member of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
"Based on the aforementioned document, as well as in accordance with ICAO's recommendations and consultations with the aviation authorities of Azerbaijan and Russia, the Aviation Accident Investigation and Prevention Center, chaired by Kazakhstan’s Minister of Transport Marat Karabaev, decided to send the flight data recorders (black boxes) to the Center for Investigation and Prevention of Aviation Accidents in Brazil (CENIPA), which is also the manufacturer country of the Embraer aircraft," the Ministry of Transport's statement said.
The Center (CENIPA) has the necessary technical capabilities, is equipped with the appropriate equipment, and has a certified laboratory for reading the black boxes, the Ministry of Transport of Kazakhstan noted.
This matter is under the personal control of the Head of State.
Recall, on December 25, a passenger plane of Azerbaijan Airlines, flight AHY8243, crashed near Aktau.
The plane took off at 08:49 A.M. Astana time from Baku airport, 11 minutes earlier than scheduled. Due to thick fog in Grozny, the plane was first rerouted to Makhachkala, and then to Aktau. Flying over the Caspian Sea, the crew gave the signal "emergency" (squawk 7700). The pilots requested an emergency landing, the airport was preparing to accept the aircraft, but at 11:30 A.M. the plane crashed 3 kilometers from the airport.
