from here. crew reported to ground control that the aircraft had been hijacked. terrorists were demanding a diversion to london. the events that followed the plane's emergency landing close to the finnish border became a nightmare for its passengers. and many had. been hijacked by a family of. the children played together in a jazz band and together they planned to. children. having first killed their own mother. brother shot my mom before my eyes how could he commit such a sin. how did they smuggle explosives and weapons aboard. musicians into

terrorists many details of the case have come to light twenty five years after the tragedy. the first ever children's jazz band to appear in the eastern siberia was an instant success. the documentary was soon made about the family it was throughout the country. in the usa being criticized for its part in. the state even tried to ban it but for this extraordinary band from success was guaranteed it was made up of seven kids with the family name. they lived in a house on the city's outskirts most of which household chores it's not clear.

when the first documentary about the family was filmed. was most impressed by the youngest brother. he would make a different film about the same family. brothers. along with. what were you doing there and what were your brothers doing sitting there crying. for. those afraid their the plane. member being warned it.

that the elder brothers committed suicide after shooting their own. crew members think of march the eighth. they always gather together on this day at least for a few hours. just like today the pilots then gave the flight attendants. the eighth of march is international women's day. half the seats were empty and passengers were in festive mood when someone suddenly passed a note to one of the flight attendants she thought it was just a prank. whether the been two weeks before the tragedy we attended a training course devoted to what the cabin crew should do in case of a hijack attempt to me during that training session a mock terrorist can it be

a very similar note yet so at that moment i just didn't take that little scrap of paper seriously but yes not at fast. on board will probably have to call the police. and then she showed us the note. change cars to london don't descend or we'll blow up the plane you are now under our command. assassin shot guns in the back row above the back of the seats about this high gun barrels. for the hijack the i had a long stopover in the city of course. new passengers and their luggage had to be loaded and the aircraft needed refueling. during that time one of the passengers noticed the older brothers. i overheard

a conversation between the two brothers one of them had bought something it is even a shop i was standing near by and heard him say to his brother in a low voice look what i bought to remember our homeland. most everyone in the. children off. this time she went with them as head of the family. that one of the musical instruments in fact. the family had. experimented with.

packed with explosives. during the. security. still. carrying a musical instrument. very similar in appearance to the middle of. nicknamed the american. some time.

at this rehabilitation center in hard to recognize. in this wheelchair at the time of the hijack he was twelve years old when they boarded the plane he was extremely. fully aware of what awaited his whole family and sailed. on the. community of. some hundred forty kilometers from. here.

who didn't take part in the hijacking she already had her own family. shortly before the tragedy. this is the album that all my sister brought me in february and i asked why are you giving me these old albums she answered i've made new albums and these you can have as mementos. we have new albums i thought it was very strange. three children of. the investigation that she wasn't involved she was given custody of her four younger brothers and sisters.

investigators believe the. children. because of a previous health condition. to have.

most of. the. time to study. them to bring home the money from. it was hard. all she knew was that she had her children so she hovered over. naturally one. of the boys their mother became even more protective we don't know who she had to protect them from. the decision. discussed everything between us we agreed on a signal. if the founders wanted me to open the cockpit door or whatever i said if

mark saw i was moved to my right the crew would not open the door under any circumstances and so i want to talk to them. confidential actions of the crew in case of skyjacking if a criminal only agrees to refuel the plane abroad the captain shall make the decision to imitate a landing at a foreign airport and choose the most appropriate airfield within the territory of the soviet union. and then later we found out that we were followed by a squadron of fighter planes as if they were under orders to destroy the plane if it crossed the border. one hundred meters for a situation. where landing when the plane landed the terrorists had no idea that they. failed on soviet soil. crew expected

the terrible tragedy that was yet to come. before the catastrophic conclusion. to build a. mission to teach. this is why you should care only. actually your image of iraq after patients have. twenty day taxi trip through the country. the roads full of dangerous. clear evidence from north to south.

the root of iraqi tragedy. after the war waiting for peace. taxi. live.

northwest russia what was once the secret of a military field. is a retired military pilot on march the eighth one thousand nine hundred groups was given orders to paint a sign in english on the entrance to the furthermost hangar to make the terrorists believe that the plane had landed as an airbase in finland. missions managed to make the notice in time we expect the plane would be directed here never anything else would happen next to this hangar we hope the trick would work and we did what we could. shortly before landing. took out their guns again they asked one of the flight attendants to sit next to them as a human shield twenty eight year olds tomorrow. of the cabin crew was taken hostage. would have my own plan to the cabin two of us tomorrow at first sight with the tray and i was following her. immediately rushed from the back row

threatened us with their shotguns and shouted one of you go back or we shoot she told me go back or they'll start shooting there. the military airfield is now abandoned this old command post is where the operation commander spoke to the flight crew of the hijacked plane. as a former eye crafts technician he was on combat duty at the command post. at the time of the assault this was full of general there was. landed the security scorcher and rushed to the landing field. with kalashnikovs

that's when the terrorists realized they were still in the soviet union and i think . they were furious. they were panicking they started shooting at the cockpit. trying to calm them down she kept telling them this is bin and this is finland i can remember. i was probably. i said something obscene to her and then fired a shot. this footage shows dimitri who killed flight attendant. he played trumpet in the family. the investigation the idea of a scaping the soviet union crossed the older brother's mind during the tour abroad in one nine hundred eighty seven they decided to take the entire family with them to do that they had to go back to the u.s.

to collect their mother and sisters from. the older brothers took control of the whole situation. would do. if it was for the good of the family. but it was the boy's idea to start earning money mom didn't work and they were living in an apartment so there was no more livestock they had to earn a living and they couldn't do anything but play music there was no other option. in summer one thousand nine hundred seven we hired a neighbor who worked as an english translator we started learning different phrases we wanted to be able to communicate once we fled abroad. i still can't understand. this incredible stupidity this was unbelievably stupid what was this all for. plane had landed at the military base security forces. of the hijacked planes crew they continue to

make up new excuses for delaying takeoff. we were told by radio that. we had to drag out as long as we. have time to get here and help for any the passengers. to appease the older of the flight engineer resorted to a clever subterfuge. i went up on to the right wing and pretended i was refueling the plane. equipments the feeling. but i didn't. this way the terrorists could see it was under pressure this created the impression the plane was being. meanwhile the passengers in the cabin were preparing to die

after the flight attendant was killed it was clear that the had nothing to lose. so one of them said i'll count to ten captain if you don't start the engine the first passenger he started counting one two three i watched the passengers that were sitting next to me they were helpless and desperately trying to cover their hearts with. hiding behind newspapers magazines. it was more. that we couldn't wait any longer that they blow us up but they kept saying the same thing if you tried all the time negotiate to make them let the passengers out in exchange for something this is a completely unrealistic at that moment. the pilots started the engines

they could no longer wait for the moscow assault team. prepared to kill passengers using noise from the. two local police groups approached on both sides. with pistols two officers used a rope from the flight deck to climb into the cockpit. had experience of hijacked aircraft. it was absolutely useless totally this so was to stall when the plane on the runway so the plane started moving. into the magazines not knowing where or what for. and a few minutes later they detonate. the homemade bomb the cabin immediately caught fire. people jumped on to the concrete right from this hatch it's about full metres off the ground. when it was my turn to evacuate i looked down before

jumping and saw people lying there women in high heels naturally they were badly injured when they landed. the rescue operation was a complete failure the field was soon empty none of the high ranking officials wanted to take responsibility for the or sold for the plane being completely destroyed by fire. for the passenger evacuation. i saw with my own all eyes that one of the passengers jumped from the plane got to his feet and started running he got past the cordon and then i heard a shot i realized it was shot in the back of. the investigation revealed that the assault team killed three people. told how his older brothers and mother died he served as liaison between them during the hijacking.

of the shotgun and shut down a mother. her skull was opened up. me to. the toilet and. you're fraid of being shot yes naturally all the surviving family members. six. seven months pregnant. future fate was equally tragic. a few years later. a drug smuggling where he was killed. during a drunk. at the end of the run when she got out of

jail she'd be ok but in reality freedom turned out to be even more frightening. returns to the. street. instead of. the old wooden building was soon derelict. who first filmed the family. twenty five years ago. one by one. you have a dog. this is where. the sidewalk was here and the house over that. started

building a new two story house. and even. of course we weren't happy about what the. bad people lived here but after reading their story i'd say they were just normal people normal family. continue to play music. musically gifted children. of music. educators try to help them get about those events.
