"The tower, Board 75559, took off," Danilov said to the ground.
"Board 75559, I pass the conditions of exit from the airport zone."
Conditions were accepted by the crew, and after two and a half minutes IL-18 performed the first turn.
"The tower, Board 75559, the lamps of ‘fourth engine fire’ panel turned on, a dangerous vibration," reported Danilov unexpectedly.
"Board 75559, make a landing at the nearest military airfield Gorelovo."
"Tower, Board 75559, we return to Pulkovo. Provide a fire truck.
After a while, the voice of the dispatcher came."
"Flight 75559, the approach conditions for Pulkovo landing at the magnetic course of 279°, line 28. The firefighting calculations arrived."
"Tower, Board 75559, the fire was confirmed. The fourth engine in the weathervane is on fire."
"Board 75559, make a landing at the nearest aerodrome. Now this is the airfield of Pushkino!"
"Tower, Board 75559, I will carry out the scheme approach at Pulkovo. Firemen are waiting for us! There are no firefighting calculations in Pushkino."
Danilov already had had a severe reprimand and he was scolded by his superiors twice from executing a quick landing with violations. Other pilots even sometimes called him a coward, and this he perceived quite painfully. This time, Danilov decided to land in accordance with the instructions on the mandatory scheme. The plane quickly approached its landing strip and behind it stretched a huge plume of smoke.
"Tower, Board 75559, the distance of 2500 meters, I enter the glide path", – Danilov said.
A second later the Board 75559 began to enter the right bank, while lowering the nose.
"Tower, Board 75559, we fall, the end of the connection", – these were the last words of the commander of the ship, which were heard from the ground.
"It's good that Matilda is not with us now", – these were the last words of Anatoly Ksyushinsky, who tightly squeezed his young wife's hand.
The years went by. Matilda grew rapidly and developed rapidly. Her grandmother, Antonina Leonidovna, tried to comprehensively develop and educate her granddaughter. She understood that her age would come to an end, and she wanted to be sure that Matilda could learn, graduate, and get a good job to feed herself.
"I need to live another ten years and put his granddaughter on his feet!" though Antonina Leonidovna.
