The decision to let the kids in the cockpit cost the lives of all 75 passengers

On March 23, 1994, tragedy struck Aeroflot Flight 593 when a father’s attempt to create

a memorable moment for his children ended in disaster, killing all 75 passengers and crew.

Relief Captain Yaroslav Kudrinsky allowed his children, Yana (13) and Eldar (15), into the

cockpit during the flight from Moscow to Hong Kong. Although the autopilot was engaged,

Eldar’s prolonged inputs on the controls unknowingly disengaged it, putting the plane into manual control
