| RDO-2 | The touchdown zone area is ah normal braking action ah mid is a poor. | |
| CAP | The braking action at touchdown was okay. ... but when we turn off from the runway. ... because it snows a lot. Wow. | |
| 0131:37 | F/O | Right side clear. (while preparing to turn off of taxiway E) |
| 0131:51 | CAP | We are skidding. |
| 0132:01 | CAP | Turning right. |
| 0132:25 | CAP | We have to make a guess, what can we do. Got to keep going. |
| 0132:28 | F/O | Oh, what's going on, the aircraft is not turning. |
| 0132:30 | CAP | What, not turning? |
| 0132:32 | F/O | Yes, aircraft is not turning, the aircraft is skidding. |
| 0132:33 | CAP | Is that right? |
| 0132:35 | momentary increase in engine noise. | |
| 0132:39 | sound of the takeoff warning horn is heard (N1 value from engines number 2 or 3 reached 71.0%) | |
| 0132:40 | F/O | Yes, uh oh it's not control. Brake off, brake off. |
| 0132:45 | CAP | This way, turn this way. |
| F/O | Yes, I'm pushing it fully. We are going to collide. | |
| ODC | Looks like we are going to collide. | |
| 0132:50 | F/O | Is it going to be okay? |
| CAP | It will be okay, let's keep turning. | |
| F/O | Is it going to be okay? | |
| CAP | Yes | |
| 0133:00 | sound of collision. | |
| F/O | What is it? It seems we are locked? Stop, stop, stop. | |
| 0133:08 | CAP | We are collided. |
| 0134:55 | GRD | Cockpit ground...shut the engines first. |
| CAP | Yes | |
| 0135:02 | GRD | Shut the engines first. |
| 0135:40 | GRD | What happened? |
| CAP | We were skidded. While we were taxiing to spot six we just kept skidding. Then we started turning to the right to avoid collision but left wing collided with Russian aircraft. | |
| GRD | Why did you use so much power to ramp in? | |
| CAP | No, the power was at idle. | |
| GRD | No, the power was not idle. It looks like you turned the aircraft with increased power. |
