MOSKOU – Drie dagen na het ongeval met de Airbus A321 van Metrojet in de Sinaïwoestijn hebben de Russische luchtvaartautoriteiten dinsdag besloten eenzelfde toestel aan de grond te houden. Het toestel, dat een vlucht van Moskou naar Sint Petersburg zou uitvoeren, werd voor de vlucht wegens technische problemen vervangen door een ander vliegtuig, zo meldde het Russische persbureau Tass. Het toestel van Metrojet stortte zaterdag door nog onbekende oorzaak neer in de Sinaï. Geen van de 224 inzittenden overleefde de ramp.(DE TELEGRAAF/telegraaf.nl)…[+]
