Russian Tupolev Crash
Morning all,
Just saw on Sky News video footage of a Tupolev 134/5(?) crashing just after take-off. Reporter stated that an engine failed and the crew didn't have enough time to stop/land back on. Can't find anything on the internet about this. Aircraft crashed and burned, all out alive some with burns. Apparently carrying military personnel.
Anybody know any more?

A russian Navy Tu-134 encountered a birdtrike shortly after lift off from the runway of a marine base near Simferopol. Crew decided to turn back and made a emergency landing. Aircraft overshot the runway, broke in several pieces and caught fire?
No body was killed, but three officers where injured.
With regards,
Christian
