CRJ accident undermines Kazakh safety overhaul

摘要

Loss of a SCAT Bombardier CRJ200 in Almaty came as Kazakhstan's government battles to convince international regulators to lift restrictions on the Central Asian state's airlines. Few details have emerged surrounding the circumstances of the accident, but SCAT says the jet, arriving from Kokshetau at 13:12 on 29 January, was conducting an approach in freezing fog and low visibility.
