The Tupolev Tu-154 killed another flightload of people today. This time it took the Red Army Choir with it.

Designed in the 60's.
Last year it was Lemmy. This time (part of) Red Army Choir. This is too much.
>>1036265
so is 737 original
>>1036272
Sure, but the 737 wasn't designed by the Soviets. And let's not pretend there was some sort of technological Great Leap Forward in the USSR between the 60's and the 80's either; if anything engineering standards & materials became worse.

Fuck no... Those fucking planes have affected me personally. Besides risking my life by flying on them at least 5 times, the -154 that crashed on the way from Tehran to Yerevan killed a few of my relatives. I can't forget that day.. My mom ran out of work and came home crying when she heard about it. My dad had to visit the crash site as part of a group and walk through human body parts. I saw the pictures on a website.
