 India suspends flights of Russian-made fighters over accident
11:29 02/12/2009

India has suspended flights by Russian-made SU-30 MKI Flanker-H multirole fighters after a plane crash, the Indian Air Force said on Wednesday.

A Su-30 MKI fighter crashed late on November 30 in western India, but both pilots ejected safely.

An Indian Air Force spokesman said the suspension of flights was a normal procedure until the reasons for the crash were established.

After a Russian-made Su-30MKI crashed in western India in April, killing one pilot, flights by the aircraft were also suspended, the spokesman said.

Experts from the producer and related enterprises in Russia have visited the crash site, but the official results of their probe have not yet been made public.
