The tragedy in Sochi claimed the lives of 92 people. The Russian Ministry of Defense has published on its website a complete passenger list collapsed Tu-Xnumx. Some of them were better known, some less, but the fate of each was unique.

Navigator: Alexander Petukhov

He received the “Order of Courage” for saving the “dancing” airliner in 2011: the plane, which had not been in service for a long time, had to be transported from the Chkalovsky airfield to Samara. Due to a malfunction of the on-board systems during the flight, the airliner began to sway in the air, but the crew, whose navigator was Petukhov, managed to land the plane safely, writes “Snob«.

Head of the Department of Culture of the Ministry of Defense Anton Gubankov

He was a very unusual official, and whether he was an official to the end is a big question. In appearance - handsome, like a people's artist, always incredibly creative, cheerful, full of ideas, fiery. Everyone was drawn to him. How can we forget his incredible ambition (during his short tenure as Minister of Culture of the Moscow Region) - to found his own Bolshoi Theater in the region! And he would have founded it, damn it, if he had not moved to the Ministry of Defense, where he also revealed himself phenomenally, writes Moskovsky Komsomolets.

He was ready for anything, and his ideas were easily translated into reality. Once he started from Syria (as a war correspondent) - he, alas, finished it. Such a strange, short, but wonderful fate ...

In July, 2013 of Gubankov literally blew up the Internet: posted a clip where he read rap about army service.

Together with the head of the Department of Culture of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, Anton Gubankov, his assistant Oksana Badrutdinova died in the Tu-154 catastrophe. By fateful coincidence, Oksana Takhirovna’s life was cut short immediately after her birthday: on December 24 she turned 34.

Oksana Badrutdinova posted her last photo on a page on the social network just at the end of a memorable day for herself at Chkalovsky airport.

Apparently, this happened shortly before the fatal plane took off for Sochi. Oksana Takhirovna accompanied the photo against the backdrop of the airport window with the note “What a blessing that there is a day in life when millions of snowflakes descend on you... Snowflakes are the sincere words of loved ones and relatives, friends and casual acquaintances, colleagues and just friends...”.
