The Tu134 was CCCP 65080. The stewardess who died on this flight was the daughter of the stewardess saved by a miracle in a crash during the 80s. |

Given the Russian government's penchant for avoiding the truth in such events, I am surprised no one has yet suggested a US submarine caused the tragedy. Dammit, Gordon, U.S.N. flying subs are still top secret. I'm reporting you to the rules board of the Marblehead Yacht Club. But what you are all trying to ignore is that the U.S.N flying subs technology was all stolen from Nazi projects at the end of the war. Dora-Nordhausen was so full of them they had to blow it up to conceal the remaining subs. Well at least you didn't spill the beans about the submersible aircraft carriers.... Ooopss.. Damn, now I have to hunt down everyone on the NG and kill them. I hate it when that happens..... ;^) The CO |

The very scene I was thinking of but, no it was a crash near Sverdlovsk caused by a fire on board and the aircraft came down in thick forest. |
