Fire
March 12, 2016
Plovdiv Military Prosecutor’s Office has opened an investigation into the fire at the Aviation Museum in Krumovo in which two people were injured and five aircraft severely damaged.
Media reports said that the fire on March 12 began when a restorer who was using an angle grinder accidentally set ablaze flammable materials.
The restorer, a 75-year-old man, suffered burns. The fire spread rapidly, destroying a Russian-made Polikarov-2, a Bulgarian-made LAZ-7 trainer, and three replicas – a Kaproni KD1, a Dar-1 and an Albatross 2. Another employee also suffered burns.
