On August 16, 2022, Angara Airlines issued flight assignment No. 61136 for commercial passenger flights AGU-95 and AGU-96 on August 17. The crew included a captain, first officer, flight engineer, and flight attendant. The first officer was scheduled for captaincy training under the PPLS-PPChLE program for An-24/An-26 aircraft.

Flight Assignment Details

On August 16, 2022, Angara Airlines (JSC Aviatransportnaya Kompaniya Angara) issued flight assignment No. 61136 for the following day, August 17, 2022. The assignment covered two regular commercial passenger flights: AGU-95, operating from Irkutsk to Ust-Kut, and AGU-96, operating from Ust-Kut back to Irkutsk. These flights were planned as part of the airline’s scheduled services.

Crew Composition

The crew designated for these flights consisted of four members: a captain (pilot in command), a first officer (co-pilot), a flight engineer, and a flight attendant. The assignment did not specify additional cabin crew beyond the one flight attendant.

Training Objectives

A notable element of the flight assignment was the inclusion of a training objective. The first officer was scheduled to undergo preparation to act as captain during the flight, as recorded in the assignment with the note: “Assignment under PPLS-PPChLE for An-24, An-26.” This indicates a supervised line training program (likely “Podgotovka po programme lineynogo stazhirovaniya – podgotovka po programme chlena letnogo ekipazha” or similar) aimed at upgrading the first officer’s qualification to captain on An-24 and An-26 aircraft types.

The source does not provide any further details about the conduct of the flights, any incidents, or outcomes. The information is limited to the planning stage, including crew assignment and training designation.
