Can anyone cast any light on the initial reports that "Earlier, the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry confirmed that the plane had to make a forced landing." and "crashed after taking a second landing attempt." ?
I see that wiki describes the 204-100 as 'fly-by-wire' - do we know how much 'influence' the computers have on things like spoilers, reversers and autobrakes vis a vis AB?
