Aviation expert on the plane crash: The pilots are not crazy to take an unjustified risk

What is behind the wording “unjustifiably high risk when performing complex aerobatic figures”? According to the Ministry of Defense, this is exactly what caused the plane crash on September 13 this year. Then during a training flight near the "Graf Ignatievo" airbase two military pilots were killed. The topic in “The NOVA News Interview” comments Associate Professor Dr. Eng. Valentin Kirov, who is a teacher, scientist and expert in flight safety in military aviation.
„I know the professionalism of the commission to the Ministry of Defense and I trust it. I absolutely agree with the conclusions of Col. Petko Vassilev”, said Prof. Dr. Eng. Kirov. However, he added that the wording “unjustified risk” disturbs him. According to the aviation expert, one of the pilots who died - Major Petko Dimitrov, had a lot of experience and probably did not undertake an unjustified and risky maneuver.
“In all such events there is a desire to present yourself. The airmen do not only represent themselves, but their unit and the Air Force. It is normal for them to want to present themselves in the best way, but that does not mean that they are crazy to take an unjustified risk,”, said the associate professor. Rather, he explains the plane incident as a fatal accident in the performance of the fatal figure.
