Iran Air Tours Crash of Tu-154M
An Iran Air Tours Tupolev Tu-154M has crashed in Mashhad, Iran, after a domestic flight that began in Bandar Abbas. The 18-year-old aircraft crashed on landing killing at least 29, perhaps as many as 80. The plane, registration number EP-MCF, once flew in the Aeroflot fleet before repeated sales that eventually put the airliner in the hands of Iran Air Tours, the charter or tour operator subsidiary of Iran Air.
