Nov 20, 2018

Up for five days, a four Russian MiG-31 supersonic interceptor aircraft cannot fly away from the civilian airport in Usinsk, Komi.

According to Lenta.ru, the airmen of interceptor aircraft are waiting for refueling
to continue its mission and return to home base.

“The aircraft will leave the airport after the necessary maintenance.
It is worth noting that for the first time our airport received this type of aircraft, ”a source at the city’s airport explained.

On November 15, due to weather conditions,
four MiG-31 fighter jets of Russian Aerospace Forces were forced
to make an emergency landing in Usinsk, before reaching Vorkuta.

Now the crew of interceptor aircraft contacted the regional airline Komiaviatrans with a request for maintenance.
