“All decisions from the investigation of the MiG-29 crash, in which lieutenant colonel Valentin Terziev was killed, have been correct,” Minister of Defence Georgi Panayotov said at a press conference.
Valentin Terziev’s wife Dimitrina Popova asked: If it is not human error and if there is no technical failure of the aircraft, what does “loss of spatial orientation” mean, and why is that not pilot error?
