curiously, her sweater is off in one of the pics...Pilot's side piece, perhaps? Either An-24 'Coke' or An-26 'Curl' (last -24 was built 1979, last -26 1986...probably very high time ships)

The article reports that the airline was found in 1999. I wonder who lost it.

Reminds me a 1994 Aeroflot A310 accident in which a young child took control of the plane. I think it may have been the captain’s child.

It was the Captains Son that caused the crash. Put to much pressure on the control column which caused the autopilot to shut off the horizontal pitch of the aircraft which in turn caused the plane to roll to much and crash. Terrible accident.

A Google search for "08824" (number clearly visible on top of control column in video) reveals RA-08824 Antonov An-24PB IrAero (Flightradar24).

Sounds like a flashback to the 1960's when there were stories about stewardess landing commercial airlines.

Are we sure it was a revenue flight and not a repositioning flight? A fair amount of these aircraft are cargo only, so for the sake a’cool’ factor, the narrative of the actual circumstances may have been embellished

It's an Antonov AN-24. Everyone needs to calm down and relax. So what, it's not a big deal.

Judging from the limited view of the panel, the airplane is at least twice as old as the ab initio copilot. Definitely not a MAX, so they're all safe. sarc. font drum roll for the blue hair down votes. Cheers!
