The Boeing 737-500 from the now defunct Tatarstan Airways crashed in 2013 as it tried to land at an airport in Kazan, Russia.
A plane that crashed in Russia killing 50 people was flown by a pilot who lied to get his license and had no basic aviation skills, knowledge or experience, an investigation has found.
A woman lays flowers at a list of the recent plane crash victims in the international airport of Russia's Volga city of Kazan on November 18, 2013. One of the pilots on the plane had lied to get his license, investigators found.
The former chief of Tatarstan's regional board of Rosaviatsiya, Shavkat Umarov, was also charged with negligence for failing to check the authenticity of Salikhov's license. Tatarstan Airways is now defunct after having its license revoked.Earlier this month, Russian investigators launched a probe after a woman boasted on social media how she was handed the controls of a plane by a pilot and flew across Siberia.
