Re: Honorary Title "Hero Of The Russian Federation".

Pilots who saved 233 lives in Ural Airlines Airbus A321 disaster awarded ‘Hero of Russia’ titles.

The pilots, who carried out a successful emergency landing, on 15 August 2019, in a cornfield, saving the lives of all the passengers, have been awarded with Russia’s highest state honor – the ‘Hero of Russia’ title. The crew received Orders of Courage.

Those given the Hero of Russia titles are Captain Damir Yusupov, 41, and co-pilot Georgy Murzin, 23.

Airbus A321 departed from Zhukovsky Airport outside Moscow to Simferopol, Crimea early on 15 August 2019. During takeoff, the jet, with 233 people aboard, ran into a flock of gulls, causing engine malfunction.

The pilots had to perform an emergency landing, successfully putting the jetliner down on its belly in a cornfield near the airport.
When the aircraft was back on the ground, the crew professionally executed their duties, organizing a swift and safe evacuation of the passengers.
