The recording from the cockpit of a plane which a pilot let his children fly has revealed the final moments inside the aircraft before disaster struck.
The plane was being flown by Andrew Viktorovich Danilov alongside first officer Igor Vasilyevich Piskaryov, while relief captain Yaroslav Vladimirovich Kudrinsky was also on board the flight.
Kudrinsky had brought his children Yana and Eldar onto the plane for their first international flight as Aeroflot Flight 593 journeyed from Moscow to Hong Kong on 23 March, 1994.
Kudrinsky invited his children into the cockpit so they could see where he worked, and had them sit in the pilot's seat to 'fly' the plane as he believed that with the autopilot engaged they couldn't do any actual harm.
However, autopilot on the plane disengaged after Eldar moved the control stick for over 30 seconds and contradicted the aircraft's autopilot orders to keep things steady.
The pilots were unfamiliar with the aircraft and didn't notice right away that autopilot had been disengaged, by the time they spotted the error it was too late to do much about it.
Aeroflot Flight 593 would end up crashing into Russia's Kuznetsk Alatau mountain range, resulting in the deaths of 63 passengers and 12 crew members.
The chilling cockpit recording revealed the plane's last moments, including the warnings Kudrinsky gave to his children as the aircraft started going out of control.
The aircraft started to roll and the reserve pilot warned his daughter Yana: "Don't run there, or they'll fire us."
Things fell apart quickly as the pilots realised they had lost control of the passenger plane and being fired became the least of Kudrinsky's worries.
One of the children knocked the flight off autopilot, and all on board died in the resulting crash (YouTube/MorfoAtari) His last recorded words were shouting at his children to return to their seats.
Kudrinsky shouted: "Eldar, get away. Go to the back, go to the back Eldar!
"You see the danger don't you? Go away, go away Eldar! Go away, go away. I tell you to go away!"
He was heard telling his children to 'get out now', and after that the pilots set about attempting to regain control of the plane.
They almost managed it but appeared to over-correct the flight path as it slammed into the mountain range at around 160mph.
Everyone on board the flight was killed in the crash, and while the airline initially tried to claim that the crew were not at fault the released audio showed how the catastrophic error had led to the deaths of all on board.
