It is not clear what caused the crash but poor visibility and high winds are being considered as a factor. Unconfirmed reports say everyone on board was killed. There were reports of a fire or an explosion on board.

738 for short. 800 is the "model" of 737.

I didn't think so on my flight from CLT to MSY in September. Hit some really bad turbulence, and the cabin began making an extremely loud whistling sound. Would not do again

Must have been bad weather or human error because it was during landing.

shite I thought this was going to be in the US at first. Can you possibly update the title to reflect it happened in Russia?
ETA: Thanks for the addition in the title. Had family members traveling and caught me off guard at first.
