Pilot Alexander Yablontzev with his crew in the cockpit of the ill-fated Superjet 100. Hardly any other pilot was better qualified to man the controls on the demonstration flight in Jakarta than the 57-year-old veteran.

The Russian Sukhoi Superjet 100, crashed in Indonesia on demo flight was a replacement for an other plane which carried out the first part of the promotional tour in Kazakhstan and Pakistan.

The plane had been replaced in the middle of the exhibition tour as reported earlier by the Moskovskiy and Kommersant newspapers.The plane on demo in in Kazakhstan and Pakistan was number 97005 while the model which crashed in Indonesia was number 97004.

Olga Kayukova, the spokeswoman for Sukhoi Civil Aircraft said the plane was not replaced because of any technical fault.But she did not make it clear what the reason was.

Indonesian government has turned down the request of Russia to send the Black Box to Russia for investigation.In Vice President Boediono's words. "[The investigation] will be under the control of Indonesian institutions. Russia will only provide support."



The body of pilot Alexander Yablontsev of Sukhoi Superjet 100,finally found. This is the only bodies of victims found in the intact condition.

Sergeant Abdul Haris, said "the face is still recognizable, white skin, hair a different color of Indonesia."



Search and rescue teams have collected the remains of the victims of the of the Sukhoi Superjet 100 crash in 25 body bags after three days of evacuation, as recovery efforts entered their fourth day on Monday.
