      However the real reason for the crash was the fact that the autopilot disconnected without the crew knowing. It was ultimately a training fault on the part of Aeroflot.

      You're completely right. The adults here showed no logic... letting the kid touch the controls was idiotic, but that alone might not have killed them. if they had immediately taken control when the plane started banking, or if the copilot hadn't tried to go fuckin space shuttle mode they probably could have saved it. It only takes a basic understanding of physics to know you can't fly a plane vertically for very long.

      Also it must be noted that Russians utilize a very different system of aircraft control than do European and other civilized countries.Russia is way behind too in training its Pilots so that they are compatible in Foreign and even their own airspace's.I found this out when I was in Middle and Far East control towers working Approach Control radar. many 'civil pilots in Russia are ex MIG jockeys and have little or no concept of civil ATC whatever.

      Improper training and supervision. Training must include every possible unusual attitude and condition of the aircraft you're flying under simulated IFR, and show proficiency. You can't just buy an airplane and start flying it. Sadly, many do and end up not flying for much longer.

    • @johnbernardini5444
      @johnbernardini5444 Před 6 lety +13

      If the plane falls out of control how come the pilots had no idea that all they had to do was let go of the control column and let the autopilot do the work to save the plane? Why wasn't that was told and explained in the training? In fucken reality and the pilots didn't realize this but they were actually fighting the autopilot which of course they didn't mean to but done so inadvertently. Some fucken intellectual schmuck who designed the cockpit for that particular plane had not introduced about that feature and maybe should had done so more pilots could understand better to recover from the stall or loss of control of the plane. That should had been introduced in training about "letting go of the control column to let the autopilot save the plane" but he has not and people have to die to learn it the fucken hard way of course. UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • @leexgx
      @leexgx Před 6 lety +3

      On another show from what I understand Russian planes that have autopilot do have to support this semi disengage of the autopilot (as what happened here) but on Russian planes when any part of the autopilot is disengaged there is an audible warning, unfortunately on this plane at the time( I believe they changed it later on, so it did as there should be a warning when autopilot in any part has been disabled) it does not produce an audible warning just icon or a display some sort of symbol of word show saying partial or a light goes out or on (unsure as was long rime)
      The sad part was this plane has self preservation mode where is if the autopilot is disengaged and nobody is on the controls sticks it automatically levels the plane out( by controlling engine power and the control surfaces to level the plane out) when they stalled it the first time they could of just let the plane under stall it self (same second time) the plane also has an fail safe stall recovery by when a stall is happening the plane automatically pushes the rudder had left or right to put the plane into a recoverable nose dive

      Same thing happened to me as a kid flying on airlines like PanAm and Branaff. I got to visit a cockpit in flight 2, maybe 3 times at cruising altitude. I distinctly recall once being told not to touch anything, even though I was pretty much out of reach of doing so. I looked in wonder, the pilots were nice to me, and I went back to my seat.
      I never in my wildest dreams thought I could, or should be sitting in one of their chairs, even at 9 years old. And looking back, there really was no reason for me to be in there, period. They could have let me meet the captain after we landed I suppose. After all, many of us as adults peek into the cockpit when the flight is on the ground and the door's open as we board or deplane.

      Helmut Murussu While it's obviously foolish to put a kid in the cockpit, no doubt it was a common practice in the days before 9/11.. This was an accident waiting to happen. They were fighting against the autopilot. No audio alarm? Huge design flaw. Too easy to disengage autopilot and never know. They didn't know to trust their automation. The kid should of not been a factor. This is complete FUCK up on Airbus' part and poor training on such a new aircraft. Way too many pilots in there for this to happen. Unacceptable. Didn't know airbus had a yolk though. Imagine if they just didn't touch anything, the autopilot/automation would of corrected it.. CRAZY.

Wasn't like the crew left the kid in co-pilot seat and they all left cockpit, again that was all design flaw and poor training, wasn't the kid, that could of happened eventually by someone bumping the controls and no one noticing with no audio alert and then not knowing how to recover plane. Totally unacceptable. That's frightening that that could happen in the 90s.

    My hospital in Moscow has "Bring your Child to Surgery Day." I'm a cardiovascular surgeon and brought my daughter Tatyana, who is 5, to show her a coronary artery bypass graft. She was excited to "discuss" procedure with the anesthesiologist, who went along with the ruse by actually showing up to the operating room with the helium birthday balloon Tat suggested be used as the anesthetic! But while letting Tat split the patient's breastbone to reveal the heart, the scalpel slipped from her hands and punctured the cardiac muscle. We were able to cauterize the wound and re-stabilize the patient, but it was a close call. These sort of things happen all the time in Russian hospitals, but a quick-thinking adult can minimize the damage and usually the patient survives.

      The crash was not caused by the kids, it was caused by both the pilots thinking that the autopilot was completely switched off but it wasn't only the ailerons were switched off BECAUSE the kid turned the control wheel more than 30 seconds to the left. The only thing the pilots had to do was let the control wheel go, than the Airbus A310 will automatically correct the plane. It's the pilots fault.

    I was on a Domestic Flight with Trans Australia Airlines (now Qantas) in a Boeing 727 aircraft.
    The Captain invited anyone who wanted too, to come to the flight deck to see what went on at the pointy end. The Captain & his crew explained what they were doing but, at no time were you allowed into their seats. It was against Australian Safety Regulations. So it mystifies me how a Captain today can allow his children to sit in his seat and run the risk of a disaster with so many other lives involved. It's very sad. I hope the lesson has been learned.

While on the tarmac, I noticed an oil substance leaking from the left engine and notified the obvious KGB officer assigned to guard the plane. He shrugged his shoulders and the next day Gremika flew to Havanna Cuba on that plane. There was oil all over the wing and on the ground.

    Got it! As soon as I see children invited to the captain's cockpit in my next flight I should start praying.

    I have to admit I laughed my ass off at 5:46 with the sudden cut to the plane vertical like that.

    This accident was avoidable and very, very sad. And playing the devil's advocate here, I believe Captain Kudrinsky received more hate than he ever deserved for this crash. Of course it was very irresponsible of him to give the controls to his children, but he configured the plane to be safe and believed that nothing would happen... It could have been solved with proper training. As said in another comment, may every person involved in this tragedy be resting in peace.

    As a child, I got to visit the cockpit of a plane traveling from Toronto, Canada to Manchester, England. It was one of the most memorable experiences of my childhood. Luckily the pilots had the common sense to not let me touch anything, and I’m glad they didn’t. So sad this happened.

    I got to hang out in the rooster hole flying to Australia in 1979. I was 3 years old and I still remember it, that's how cool I thought it was.

    1988 I was 12 years old and flying to disney world. I got wings from the captain and an hour into the flight a trip up to see the cockpit, we left just after school on a friday, so it was dark. But the lights inside and on the ground were unforgettable, and honestly, Disney couldn't top it lol...

    Here's how this accident could of been prevented: legit dont bring ur freaking kids into the cockpit, nor dont let them at the controls. for hecks sake i dont even know how to even drive a CAR properly, and i could for sure not fly a plane properly

      Maybe Enable autopilot But right don't let your kids go to the cockpit and messing up the controls

    If the pilots did not let the kids screw around with the controls, it would not have happened...

    Could someone tell me why they said to turn right when they needed to turn left???

    • @wildgurgs3614
      @wildgurgs3614 Před 6 lety +7

      Eldar had left and right backwards. Rather than trying to correct the kid, the FO adapted and said the wrong direction on purpose (Smart move!) so Eldar would then try to turn the other way.

    • @fedealoy7906
      @fedealoy7906 Před 6 lety +2

      WildGurgs36 Sorry if it's a stupid question, but why would Eldar turn the other way??

    • @wildgurgs3614
      @wildgurgs3614 Před 6 lety +15

      Short answer: Don't be sorry, it's a good question. Eldar had left and right mixed up.
      Long answer: Eldar was turning right, but when they said to turn left, Eldar said that the plane was already turning left. The FO quickly realized that Eldar must therefore have left and right reversed, so since they were saying left, Eldar was mistakenly turning right thinking it was left. This is why the FO said to turn right - he figured that if Eldar was told to turn right (the wrong direction), Eldar would get it backwards and turn left (the correct direction) thinking that it was right, not left.
      Side note: I don't believe there is such a thing as a "stupid question" because in my experience as an engineering student, what seems like a bad idea for a design can sometimes be your golden ticket to a successful build :)

      WildGurgs36 it could also be spacial disorientation since the plane was flipping and it was night.
