An Azur Air Boeing 767-300, registration VP-BRA performing flight ZF-5034 (dep May 11th) from Fergana (Uzbekistan) to Moscow Vnukovo (Russia), completed a seemingly uneventful flight with a safe landing on Vnukovo's runway 06 about 4 hours after departure.
Rosaviatsia reported however, that a post flight inspection revealed a dent of 310x80mm (12.2x3.1 inches) showing metal tearing at the lower right hand parts of the surface of the stabilizer. A trap door at the fuselage/centerplane junction above the inboard flap of the right wing was missing. An inspection of runway and taxi route did not reveal any foreign objects. Rosaviatsia rated the damage substantial.
