Kid in the Cockpit Mayday/Air Crash Investigation Part 4

The captain of Aeroflot Flight 593 brings his two children into the cockpit. The pilot's 15 year old son has a turn in the captain's seat. He uses the aircraft controls; his actions ultimately cause the aircraft to stall. The aircraft crashes with the loss of all 75 people on board.

Lets invite kids into the control rooms of nuclear power plants too. Maybe take another look at Chernobyl..

"Don't touch the autopilot switch". Don't teenagers always do the opposite of what you tell them?

were russin were drunk we let kids fly so we dont get a d.u.f. (drunk whail flying)

@Snoep76239 preschooler do that

The real problem is that the Autopilot could not be completely disengaged, allowing the First Officer to take immediate control of the A310. The A310 has had similar incidents of unintentional stalls with MALEV Hungarian Airlines and Lufthansa. Not the fault of the Russians. They have never crashed any of their Boeing, Illyshun or Tupolev products by stalling them! Just the Scarebus A310!

@scorpianofthesun Oh, and if I sound like I'm blaming the kid (or kids) I'm not. I'm blaming their father.

[scorpianofthesun]

@scorpianofthesun learned from this.  Do NOT allow a child to fly a plane. ESPECIALLY when there are people on board.

[scorpianofthesun]

That 15 year old NEVER should have been allowed to fly the plane. Period. It's one thing to invite someone into the cock pit to look at everything. It's completely different to let someone fly the plane itself. What experienced, in-their-right-mind pilot lets a child fly a plane. That kid had NO experience (I'm assuming he had very little to none) probabaly didn't understand what each control did, and certainly wasn't experienced enough to handle a crisis. I REALLY hope future pilots

@Snoep76239 They never do.

Those kids should of known how to fly the plane because Airbus employ enough of them in third World Countries.

We dont let them drive at 15 but piloting a plane yes
