According to the Mirror, all 75 passengers and crew members on board Aeroflot Flight 593 perished in a terrible and avoidable aviation accident on March 23, 1994.

A highly skilled crew, consisting of Captain Andrew Viktorovich Danilov, First Officer Igor Vasilyevich Piskaryov, and Relief Captain Yaroslav Vladimirovich Kudrinsky, manned the doomed flight, which was traveling from Moscow to Hong Kong.The three of them had flown thousands of hours together.

But even their knowledge was powerless to stop the deadly results of an expensive choice.Relief Captain Kudrinsky found Flight 593 particularly memorable because it was his children Yana, 13, and Eldar, 15, their first overseas journey.

Kudrinsky brought his kids inside the cockpit to see him work in the hopes that the event would be remembered.The crew thought it was safe to let the kids sit at the controls because the autopilot was set, even though it was against airline rules.
