In Kamchatka, the Far East of Russia, the plane with 11 passengers on board failed to take off after the chassis of the aircraft got stuck in the mud. The L-410 aircraft was supposed to fly from the village of Ust-Bolsheretsky to the city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.

The incident occurred at around midday local time (04:00 MSK), at Ozernovsky Airport, TLTnews.ru reports. According to officials, the plane, when turning on the runway, stuck in the mud that had been caused by rain. An Ural vehicle had to pull the aircraft out from the mud. During these manipulations, one chassis of the plane broke. As a result, the aircraft was sent for repairs.

All passengers were delivered to the airport of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky by another plane.
