" We are considering two main assumptions about the Rostov-on-Don plane crash: the pilot's fault regarding weather conditions or technical errors, " Interfax news agency quoted representatives of the Article Committee Russian investigation Oksana Kovrizhnaya, today said.

They said the technical error may have caused the Boeing 737 to land during the first landing at 1:35 local time.

" The plane flew in the air for two hours, ran out of fuel and tried to land at 3:30. The attempt to land was turned into a disaster ," Interfax news agency quoted a source. Currently, the investigating agency still does not know why the plane is on for so long.

Aviation expert Mary Schiavo told CNN that radar showed that the plane flew three large loops on the airport area before falling. " Poor visibility is probably the biggest clue in the accident. But the runway has lights to guide the plane and the plane also has a landing system ," said Schiavo.

The expert said that flying three rounds before landing for the second time may be due to the pilot's disorientation when trying to approach the runway.

Meanwhile, aviation safety analyst David Soucie said bad weather was the cause of the disaster. Soucie judged that the assumption of technical errors is unlikely.

FlyDubai Airlines Boeing 737 number FZ981 today crashed and broke while landing at Rostov-on-Don airport in southern Russia, killing all 62 passengers and crew. Officials found a black box of planes and were looking for the remaining black box life.
