Many children who fly for the first time have dreamed of meeting the pilots of their flight. And sometimes, while a plane still sits on the ground, a pilot may even invite youngsters into the cockpit for a quick tour or photo.

Join Shelly in this episode of Take to the Sky: The Air Disaster Podcast as she recounts the unprecedented events as they unfolded on Aeroflot 593, and the proceeding investigation that revealed the astonishing truth of what brought down the plane.
