On July 8, 2006 at 22:44 UTC, as it was landing at Irkutsk airport, an A-310 airplane, registration F-OGYP, operated by Sibir Airlines AS Flight C7 778, ran down the runway, overran the runway threshold and, at a distance of 2140 m and on a magnetic azimuth of 296 from the aerodrome reference point, collided with barriers, broke apart and burst into flames. As a result of the accident 125 individuals died, including both pilots and 3 of the cabin crew; 60 passengers and 3 cabin crew suffered physical injuries of varying degrees of severity. The actions of the crew from the onset and in the development of an emergency situation revealed shortcomings in the professional training of both the airplane captain and the co-pilot. The real cause of the accident was pilot error due to lack of training and experience.
