MOSCOW. Aug 2 (Interfax) - The Inter-state Aviation Committee's technical commission investigating the crash of Polish President Lech Kaczynski's aircraft did not try to conceal the technical flaws of the Smolensk-Severny airfield, but it was not them that caused the air crash.
"The technical commission was not trying to hide the flaws of the airfield and its equipment, which are reflected in much detail in the final report. However, according to the technical commission and independent experts, the flaws pertaining to the airfield infrastructure, the condition and technical level of the radio and light and signal equipment, ground objective control systems, did not contribute to the crash," IAC technical commission chairman Alexei Morozov told a press conference in Moscow on Tuesday.
