SCAT Airlines Flight 760 was a scheduled domestic passenger flight from Kokshetau to Almaty, Kazakhstan, that crashed in thick fog near Kyzyltu on 29 January 2013, killing all 16 passengers and 5 crew on board.
Investigation
Shortly after the accident, a commission headed by Bakytzhan Sagintayev, the First Deputy Prime Minister of Kazakhstan, was set up by Prime Minister Serik Akhmetov to investigate the cause of the crash.
Maulen Mukashev, the deputy mayor of Almaty, visited the crash site and told reporters that the preliminary cause of the crash was bad weather. Mukashev also added: "Not a single part of the plane was left intact after it came down".
On March 2nd 2015 the Interstate Aviation Committee released their final report stating that during the missed approach, necessitated by weather conditions being below minima, the elevator was deflected to lower the nose instead of raising the nose resulting in a steep dive and impact with the ground. The investigation was unable to determine the cause of the elevator movement but did not find evidence of any system malfunction or external influences.
