yeah, he made it. Both pilots made it but were later convicted of some kind of crime for it and thrown in jail

About 100 died.


The plane is a Su-27s.


Pilots were wrongfuly thrown into jail, the plane was overfueld hence the manuver didnt work out, but they needed someone to blame. And pilots are the easiest targets.


And those pilots were the products of spending their life in the sky during the cold war.

1st class test pilots, type of guys that you can count on your fingers.


About 100 people died, both pilots survieved.
