Unfortunately we can state that the reason for the A-320 crash was the
human factor ` the uncoordinated actions of the crew during the last
17 seconds of the flight. However, it's not clear so far what was the
cause of such activity of the pilot, and it needs to be clarified,
Head of the Chief Board of the Civil Aviation of Armenia Artyom
Movsisyan said during a press conference, commenting on the
conclusions of the Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC) on the causes
of the Armavia A-320 crash.
`It's not clear for us what served as a reason for the uncoordinated
actions of the crew, since the modeling of the flight in Toulouse
revealed that during the last 17 seconds the flight of the plane was
stable. Suddenly, 17 seconds before the crash, the actions of the
crewmembers became uncoordinated. Possibly, this was connected with
the pilot's health condition, which worsened under extreme
circumstances or the state of mind caused by the actions of the flying
control officer, or even the loss of orientation in the space,'
Movsisyan said. He added that decoding of the voice recorder revealed
that the crew was extremely nervous and discontent with the activities
of the flying control officer. However, he avoided providing a direct
answer to the question whether the Civil Aviation Committee agrees
with the conclusion of the Interstate Aviation Committee that the
responsibility for the accident falls on the crew. He noted only that
the information in the IAC conclusion corresponds to the data of the
A-320 flight recorders.
