“A summary of regulatory objectives: establishing ornithological protection requirements for civilian aircraft operations in Russia,” the document says.

It is noted that the rules may enter into force in June.

In August, Izvestia announced the decision of the Ministry of Transport to allocate more than five million rubles to create a new ornithological flight safety system after an emergency landing in Zhukovsky.

On August 15, 2019, the Airbus A321 aircraft of Ural Airlines, which operated the Moscow – Simferopol flight, made an emergency landing after taking off from the Zhukovsky airport, landing in a corn field.

According to the Federal Air Transport Agency, the cause of the accident was a plane collision with a flock of seagulls.
