  Military Plane Crashes in Bulgaria's Varna, Airport Remains Open
8 July 2008, Tuesday
A military transport plane of the Bulgarian Air Force suffered an accident around noon on Tuesday while landing at the civil airport of Bulgaria's Black Sea city of Varna.

As the Spartan C 27 J plane was landing, a strong gust of find from the left caused it to bend to the right. As a result its right propeller hit the ground, and broke.

None of the crew members was killed or injured during the accident. The case is under investigation.

The plane was flying from the city of Plovdiv to Varna. The accident did not interfere with the work of the Varna Airport, which remains open.
Military Plane Crashes in Bulgaria's Varna, Airport Remains Open Military Plane Crashes in Bulgaria's Varna, Airport Remains Open.mht‎(278KB)‎ (https://webmail.eadscanada.com/exchange/Martin/FWSAR/Competition/C27J/FW:%20Military%20Plane%20Crashes%20in%20Bulgaria%27s%20Varna,%20Airport%20Remains%20Open.EML/1_multipart_xF8FF_2_Military%20Plane%20Crashes%20in%20Bulgaria%27s%20Varna,%20Air)
All this comes as no surprise when ones makes the effort to check out their manual.
Section V of the manual, page 5-18, lists the min weight for engine test as 39683 lb because if the aircraft is light, the propwash will cause the wing to become light enough that a crosswind will have an impact.

Further, it reads "If during engine test, the aircraft shows an incipient bank movement, release brakes and bring power to idle." This is because the wing is lifting with the combination of propwash and crosswind, and cutting the engine will drop the wing.

Then, the statement on Crosswind takeoff that states "With crosswind over 10 Kt on takeoff, maximum power must be reached gradually during taxi (rolling takeoff)." As a performance takeoff requires full power against brakes to have shortest takeoff run, they´re concerned that when power has to be added gradually, wing lift and loss of control results.

Page 2-42, states "The aircraft will tend to lift the upwind wing." Thus, when wing lift is added to the requirement for rolling takeoff at crosswinds of 10 knots, you get the above listed incident. .

Lastly, the US C-27A Aircrew training manual (USAF had ten C27A, the G.222 successor which were retired after only a couple of years of service), page 6-43, states "the Copilot must control the aircraft’s lateral attitude with the control wheel, especially during windy conditions."
As the C27J has even more powerful engines than the 222 or 27A above mentioned crosswind challenges will only be exacerbated. A 14 kt crosswind limit for any aircraft this size is ridiculous.

29.11.2010/ 10:35 по Гринуич 29.11.2010 / 10:35 GMT

В понеделник около 12:35 м. вр. в учебната военновъздушна база в Долна Митрополия е извършил аварийно кацане със спрял двигател учебен самолет "Пилатус" ПС-9М . On Monday around 12:35 m peak in the academic air base in Lower Metropolis performed an emergency landing with engine stopped penguin "Pilatus" PS-9m. Двамата пилоти са невредими. Both drivers were unharmed.
Самолетът е излетял за разузнаване на метеорологичната обстановка преди началото на плановите полети. The plane took off for a reconnaissance of meteorological conditions prior to scheduled flights. На височина 20 метра двамата пилоти усетили, че рязко спада теглителната сила на самолета. At the height of 20 meters both drivers felt that the sharp decrease traction on the plane. Те моментално взели решение с енергична маневра да се върнат обратно на летището и да кацнат на пътеката за рулиране. They immediately decided to move vigorously to return to the airport and land on the taxiway. Височината обаче не им достигнала с малко и се приземили преди началото на бетона. The height is not reached with them a bit and landed before the concrete. Колесникът на самолета е строшен. Landing the plane is broken.
Самолетът е пилотиран от капитан Пламен Иванов и от капитан Боян Григоров. The plane was piloted by Captain Plamen Ivanov and Captain Boyan Grigorov. По този повод от щаба на ВВС коментират, че това е голям късмет, защото млад пилот едва ли е щял да се справи толкова удачно със ситуацията. On this occasion of the headquarters of the BBC commented that it was lucky because a young driver is hardly going to deal with the situation as appropriate.
Полк. Regiment. Анатоли Кръстев от щаба на ВВС, бивш началник на авиобазата, е назначен за началник на комисията, която ще раследва авиационното произшествие. Anatoli Krastev Headquarters Air Force, former head of the air base, was appointed head of the commission, which will rasledva aviation accident.
За последен път в Долна Митрополия е спрял двигател на курсант на 2 юни 1967 година, пилотирал Л-29. The last time the Lower Metropolis stopped engine cadet on June 2, 1967, flew L-29.

Компютърна грешка виновна за аварията с наш военен самолет Computer error to blame for the accident with our military aircraft

четвъртък, 13 януари 2011 Thursday, January 13, 2011
Плевен Pleven
Швейцарски авиационни експерти пристигат днес в авиобаза Долна Митрополия да търсят причините с инцидента с учебен „Пилатус РС - 9М”, който се приземи извънредно при неуспешен опит за излитане. Swiss aviation experts arrived in Lower airbase Metropolis to seek the causes of the incident to school "Pilatus PC - 9m", which landed in extremely unsuccessful attempt to take off. На 29 ноември учебната машина не успя да се вдигне достатъчно високо над пистата и изгуби тяга. On 29 November the school machine failed to rise sufficiently high above the track and lose traction.
Но двамата пилоти майор Боян Григоров и майор Пламен Иванов решили да я приземят аварийно, вместо да изпълнят буквално инструкцията и да катапултират. But both drivers Boyan Grigorov Major Major Plamen Ivanov decided to land an emergency rather than to implement the instructions and literally catapulted. Така те спасили самолета с минимум поражения и дори предотвратили евентуално падане в близкото с. Горна Митрополия. So they saved the plane with minimum damage and even prevent a potential fall in the nearby village of Upper Metropolis. За смелостта им инструкторите са предложени за най-високите армейски ордени „За военни заслуги”. For their courage instructors are offered for the highest military medal "For military merit."
Компютърна грешка се смята първоначално за причина за инцидента във въздуха. Computer error is considered an initial cause of the incident in the air. Моторът работил през цялото време. The bike worked all the time. Засякла електрониката, която регулира хода на витлото. Electronics have detected that regulates the course of the propeller. Това съобщи началникът на родните ВВС генерал-майор Константин Попов, който откри учебната година в базата. This was announced by the head of the local Air Force Major-General Konstantin Popov, who opened the school year in the database. Той се позова на доклада за произшествието. He made ​​reference to report the accident.
Заради драмата край Долна Митрополия временно са спрени полетите в България с този учебен самолет. Because drama near Lower Metropolis temporarily suspended flights to Bulgaria with this trainer. Те ще бъдат възобновени чак когато специалистите от фирмата-производител „Пилатус Еъркрафт” открият конкретния детейл в електрониката, който е станала виновник. They will be resumed only when the specialists from the manufacturing company "Pilatus Aircraft" find this deteyl in electronics, which has become the culprit.
„Това е героизъм в мирно време. "This is heroism in peacetime. Миналата година екипажите на „Пилатус” летяха рекорден брой часове, повече от всякога преди това. Last year, crews "Pilatus" flew a record number of hours, more than ever before. Бяха отлично подготвени. Were well prepared. Не е лесно да падаш към земята и да вземеш решение да не скочиш. It is easy to fall to the ground and make a decision not to jump. Машината е много добра, но трябва да бъдем сигурни в безопасността й”, заяви генералът. The machine is very good, but we must be sure of its safety, "said the general. Предвижда се да бъдат възобновени и полетите с реактивните учебни самолети Л-39, каза ген. Planned to resume flights and jet training aircraft with L-39, said gene. Константин Попов. Konstantin Popov.
28 секунди продължил инфарктния полет от светването на червената лампа до аварийното кацане, споделиха двамата летци. Nail-biting 28 seconds continued flight from the world of red light to a safe landing, two pilots shared. Това е първи такъв случай у нас в реална обстановка. This is the first such case in our country in a real environment. При отказ на мотора до 300 м. по правилата трябвало да катапултират. Failure of motors up to 300 m in the rules should be catapulted. Машината набрала едва половината от критичната височина. Machine raised only half of the critical height.
Скоростта паднала до опасните 80 възела. The rate dropped to 80 knots dangerous. На завой се държала странно, едва успели да я изправят и временно изгубили посоката. Turning behave strangely, barely able to stand up and temporarily lost their direction. Въпреки загубата на тяга обаче моторът не угаснал и двамата отложили момента за скок. Despite the loss of engine thrust, however, is not extinct and they delayed the time to jump. С майсторско управление успели да се върнат и да кацнат на тревата между пътеката за рулиране и полосата. With masterful management able to return to the top of the grass between the taxiway and runway.
„Нямаше филмова лентане видях живота си за един миг. "There was no film I saw my life in an instant. Имаше пределна мобилизация и единствено мисълта да приземим самолета. There was only marginal and mobilization thought to land the aircraft. Естествено, имаше шок”, сподели майор Иванов, който ръководил полета, планиран за разузнаване на меорологичната обстановка. Naturally, there was shock, "said Major Ivanov, who led the flight, scheduled for intelligence meorologichnata environment.
„Въпреки че всеки авиатор си мисли, че на него няма да се случи подобно нещо, винаги се е готвил за това. "Although each aviator think that it will not happen anything like that, always ready for that. С нетърпение чакам следващия полет. I look forward the next flight. Вече ще полагам максимални усилия да внушавам на курсантитте да са винаги психически готови за извънредна ситуация във въздуха”. Now will use its best efforts to instil kursantitte always be mentally prepared for an emergency in the air. "
„Представете си ситуацията на един шофьор, който изпреварва камион, ако по средата моторът на колата изведнъж заглъхне. "Imagine the situation of a driver overtaking a truck in the middle if the car engine suddenly fade. Насреща идват коли, трябва да предприемеш нещо, а нямаш никакво време. Oncoming cars have to undertake something, you have no time. Нещо подобне е усещането. Something similar is feeling. Съзнанието се свива до няколко определени неща, останалото не забелязваш”, разказа Григоров. Consciousness shrinks down to a few things the rest do not notice, "said Grigorov.
Пламен Иванов е на 35 г., женен, с две деца. Plamen Ivanov is 35, married with two children.
На този самолет лети от 2005 г. Партньорът му Боян Григоров е на 36 г. Също е семеен с две деца, обучаван е в Швейцария.Спаси ни това, че действахме като един. The aircraft flew in 2005 his partner Boyan Grigorov is 36, also is married with two children, taught in our Shveytsariya.Spasi that act as one. Разбрахме се без много думи и нямахме никакви разногласия, единодушни бяха двамата. Understood without many words and did not have any disagreements, they were unanimous.
