Passengers and crew members used four emergency slides to escape the Sukhoi Superjet-100 belonging to Yakutia Airlines.

The flight had taken off from the eastern Siberian city of Ulan-Ude. As the pilot tried to stop the plane at the Yakutsk runway it skidded out of control

The landing gear under the wings collapsed as it finally stopped. The rear of the plane lurched back leaving the nose in the air.

The plane did not catch fire even though there was a fuel leak. Emergency crews sprayed the stricken Russian-made aircraft.

Wet snow had frozen on the runway causing the treacherous conditions, officials said. The plane landed even though the icy runway was not ready for landing.

The Jet is Believed to be Beyond Repair

The aviation sources have also maintained that the plane skidded as the runway was covered with ice and as a result landing gear was damaged. At the time of landing the temperature in Yakutsk was slightly below freezing.
