There's a summary here. How often do aircraft get so badly off course in such sensitive areas? The Russians certainly weren't to blame in Guan or Stastead or for overloading a damaged aircraft - they did that all by themselves. I accept they've been a lot better in recent years but any way I look at it, I don't trust them with my life just now.
