The flight proceeded as usual, but the cadet never found out that there were problems and the plane crashed.

Cadet Vyacheslav Zolochevsky, who survived the An-26 crash, said there was no panic on board until the last moment. He announced it on Friday, October 2, in a comment to LB.ua.

When asked when he realized there was a problem on board, he replied: “I can’t remember that. It was a normal flight. There was no panic.”

Zolochevsky also noted that he did not know about the left engine PCM (torque meter) pressure drop at 8:38 PM.

According to the cadet, after each landing and before each takeoff, the aircraft was inspected.

“When we got on board, the plane was fully operational,” he said.
