MOSCOW, November 30 (RIA Novosti) - Experts from the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry have not found increased background radiation on two Boeing-737s in Moscow owned by Transaero, the ministry said Thursday.

"No excessive background radiation was discovered on the planes," a ministry representative said.

Five planes that flew the Moscow-London route have been singled out for radiation tests as part of investigations. So far two British Airways jets grounded in London have tested positive for radiation contamination.
