BBC now reporting it was a Challenger 600 which crashed shortly after take off. Also reporting 3 crew all survived-yet to be confirmed though.
Lets hope so for all concerned.
Heavy snow reported over the last 12 hours in the area. Not the time to make any judgments but thoughts naturally turn to the Birmingham Challenger crash of a year or so ago.

Facts as currently known

Be interesting to read what happened if a report ever comes out.

Acass Canada CL850 in Moscow crash
Unfortunately, but not surprisingly, the Challenger 850 that crashed on take-off from UUWW this morning was an Acass support contract.
It is sad to say it was only a matter of time until an incident such as this.

Just to add, without benefit of any knowledge other than the posts here, that "Challenger 850" is Bombardier's marketing name for the business/corproate configured version of the CRJ 50 seat regional jet (previously marketed as the 'SE' version of the CRJ, at least for a while)

Took me a while 2 figure out what was where and what wasn't there.
.
Reminds me of other icing TOs such as in Britian a few years ago.
