A Soviet-made TU-154 passenger plane has caught fire while landing in the airport of Iranian city of Mashhad at 07:20 local time (03:50 GMT).
Kudos to that pilot and condolences to the passengers. This is another story worth keeping, like the river landing last year in New York. Like they say, "any landing you walk away from, is a good one", especially when the tail is on fire and one wing is falling off! Wow.
Well done - give the man a medal at least!
God/Allah bless this great pilot Mr. Prikhodko!

How about helping the Iranian regime with building Nuclear power plants and the technology to make nuclear bombs....Oh, thats right, you have already done that. Why don't you give these planes the much needed repair parts after all they are Tupolev's? The embargo is only for "Western" made parts!
Professional job, he got it in the blocks, well done! But how about helping Iran out with some Superjets and AN 148s, it seems good business to me.
