The Aviation Organization of Iran Air Disaster Investigation committee in the accident quickly rushed to the scene to investigate the cause of the crash. Mahathir Motech said the plane crashed two black boxes have been found, after analysis will soon announce the specific reasons for the crash. Iran's deputy minister of transport, Ahmedi Majidi, said the plane crashed because of special reasons for emergency landing rather than crashed. He said that when the plane arrived in Urumie, due to the bad weather and poor visibility of the airport, the pilot then asked to return, but soon after the return of the ground lost contact with the surface, it is not clear why the pilot soon after the lowThe implementation of emergency landing, the pilot also died in the accident, the specific reasons need to analyze the black box to know. West Azerbaijan Province police officer Larouze Coumles, who is near the crash site, said that, according to the current situation, the passenger plane from Tehran to the north-west, the time has been delayed than the scheduled Take-off 2 hours, due to the adverse weather effects.　　Therefore, the accident is likely to be caused by natural factors, also do not rule out in bad weather, pilots operating errors or integrated factors caused the crash.　　But Coumles said that there was no terrorist factor in the accident, so the possibility of a terrorist attack could be largely ruled out. Iran has had frequent aviation accidents in recent years.　　Iran has blamed the U.S. sanctions imposed on Iran for not buying new aircraft or parts from Western countries.　　Our correspondent Tian Yuan compiled link Boeing 727 has been shut down for nearly 30 years and the Boeing 727 aircraft crashed more than 40 years ago, and has been discontinued in 1984. Boeing 727 is the Boeing Company's second-707 jet airliner, 1963 test flight, passenger volume of 145 people (economic, business two) or 189 (level), driven by three turbo-jet engines, some parts such as fuselage components and 707 of the same, the main market is the U.S. inland backbone. Boeing 727 uses a trident-like design, with 3 engines all installed at the rear of the aircraft.　　The last 727 was delivered in 1984, with a total output of 1832.　　The Boeing 727 models are used by air freight companies in China because they are older, and there are no airlines that use them as passenger models. In recent years, Iran has suffered 4 rounds of U.N. sanctions because of its controversial nuclear programme, which is currently not optimistic and has a inflation rate of more than two digits.　　One of the unilateral sanctions imposed on Iran by the United States and the European Union is a ban on the provision of aircraft and related equipment to Iran.　　In recent years, Iran's air crash in February 2003, a passenger plane carrying the Revolutionary Guards of Iran elite armed forces on the crash, killing 302 people.　　108 passengers, crew members and civilians on the ground were killed in a plane crash near the Iranian capital Tehran in December 2005, which crashed directly into residential buildings.　　In November 2006, a military plane crashed and 39 people were killed, including 30 members of the Revolutionary Guard.　　A Russian airliner burst into flames in the air in July 2009, and the pilot crashed into an emergency landing, killing 168 crew members. Analysis of many air crash points to Western sanctions in recent years, Iran has been a number of air crashes. In addition to weather reasons, many accidents are caused by technical reasons such as aircraft aging. In an interview with this reporter, the former ambassador to Iran, China Institute of International Research Special researcher Hua Liming that the United States and other Western countries to impose economic sanctions on Iran, resulting in Iran can not buy new aircraft and aircraft components, difficult to new technology and aircraft maintenance, isThe deep reason for the frequent air crash in Iran in recent years. Unable to import aircraft and parts Hua Liming introduced that Iran's aircraft were almost entirely supplied by the United States before the Islamic revolution, because Iran itself did not have the capability to manufacture aircraft, so the aircraft relied heavily on foreign imports. But because of the U.S. economic embargo and arms embargo over the past 30 years, Iran has been unable to import aircraft and spare parts. So like this previously purchased Boeing aircraft, now there is no way to repair, 30 years ago, the old aircraft still continue to fly, it is indeed very difficult. "This is a big problem facing Iran's civil aviation industry."　　"Hua Liming said. An Iranian official also blamed the crash on international sanctions. The official said Iran was struggling to buy a new airliner from the United States and Europe after the U.S. and Iraq broke diplomatic ties after the Iranian-American airliner was bought more than the Islamic revolution in 1979.　　In order to maintain the operation of the existing airliner, Iran often dismantled the aircraft's parts to fill the missing. Iran airlines, the accident, its fleet has Boeing and Airbus aircraft, but the purchase time is before 1979, the machine age is older, the probability of the accident is higher.　　In addition, many Iranian airlines buy the former Soviet aircraft, and after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, some aircraft production lines closed, these aircraft are also not well maintained. In recent years, Iran has suffered 4 rounds of U.N. sanctions because of its controversial nuclear programme.　　One of the unilateral sanctions imposed on Iran by the United States and the European Union prohibits the provision of aircraft and related equipment to Iran. Flying is a high-risk thing. "Travel in Iran, we try not to fly." Hua Liming recalls that, in 1981, he travelled from Tehran to a coastal city of the Caspian Sea, where the glass in the cockpit was broken and forced to return.　　Not only did he encounter the aerial scare like this, but some of his colleagues had similar experiences. There was also a visit to the front line of the Iran-Iraq war on the American 130 plane, Hua liming with a cold sweat on his way: "There is no spare parts, do not know when the aircraft overhaul." Jane Li, a journalist from Phoenix satellite television in Iran, has the same view. He said: "In Iran now, flying is indeed a high-risk thing, so we basically will not choose to fly, unless it is forced." "In July 2010, 27 countries in the European Union decided to ban civil aviation flights under the majority of Iranian airlines from airports in member States." Iranian Airways has more than 60 aircraft, is "No-fly" is mainly the Boeing 727 series, Boeing 747 series and Airbus 320 series of civil aircraft. The aircraft accounted for two-thirds of Iran's fleet.　　The European Union's Transport Commission points out that these aircraft "safety can not meet EU standards." Multi-channel renewal aircraft should be developed Jane Li that the main reason for the frequent air crashes is that Iran's national airline is a state-owned enterprise, all aircraft are controlled by national airlines, not to get some economic and institutional changes, so the enterprise began to decline slowly. Now Iran is implementing economic reforms that put state-owned enterprisesPrivatization, the establishment of many small companies, but the problem is that small companies lack of regulation, many small companies use "Figure 15" of this small aircraft, but also very dangerous.　　Now Iran's national airline has issued orders to conduct a thorough investigation of all the companies, including "Figure 154", which had been banned before long. How can Iranian civil aviation find a way out? Hua Liming thinks, should rely on "curve Save the Nation" method, through third country high price buys the American aviation product, but this method can only solve the appealing need, the time is long, the sustainability is poor.　　Therefore, finally, we must rely on their own research and development to solve. It is reported that Iran is through international procurement and independent research and development of the way to solve the problem of aircraft replacement. Iran has recently procured a number of Boeing MD series and Airbus aircraft, and Iran this year began producing its own self-developed Iranian-140 aircraft. Iran-140 is a twin-engine turbine propeller-type aircraft that can carry 52 people and carry a capacity of 1865 miles. Newspaper reporter Tian Yuan
