Investigators Find Black Boxes From Crashed Russia Plane
KAMCHATKA PENINSULA, RUSSIA, JUL 25 – Black boxes recovered two days after the crash of an Antonov An-26 that killed all 48 on board; data may clarify mechanical or crew factors in the accident.
- On July 25, 2025, Russian investigators recovered flight data and cockpit voice recorders from the Antonov An-26 wreckage near Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.
- Amid concerns over aging Soviet-era fleets, the Antonov An-26, a Soviet-era model introduced in the 1960s, features known reliability concerns with over 1,000 units still operating in remote regions.
- Carrying 48 people, the aircraft went down shortly after departure, with no survivors after a 12-hour search, lost contact at 3:15 AM, and wreckage found 15 kilometers from Yelizovo Airport.
- Families of the 48 killed will receive five million rubles each, Russia's transport ministry said, while authorities launched an investigation into Angara Airlines' regulatory compliance.
- The black boxes have been sent to Moscow for analysis, expected to yield 30 days of flight data and audio recordings, and aviation experts warn the findings could prompt retirement of similar aging aircraft.
