Sharpatov Vladimir Ilyich Biography

An attempt to enter the Sasovo flight school was unsuccessful. After the 1st year of work, Stolyar, in the year entered the full-time department of the Kazan Aviation Institute. He was engaged in an flying club, became a glider. In the first year, according to the then existing program, like everyone else, it is aimed at practice at the Kazan Aviation Plant named after Gorbunova at the evening training system.

From the second year, training was full -time in combination with classes at the planning department of the airborne club. After graduating from three courses of the Kazan Aviation Institute, he entered the Krasnokutsk School of Civil Aviation, and since the year he recovered at the Kazan Aviation Institute in absentia, while studying at the Krasnokutsk School of Civil Aviation, which he graduated with honors.

In the year, at the end of the School of Distribution, he was sent to Tyumen. In the year he defended his diploma at the Kazan Aviation Institute, and in the second diploma at the Academy of Civil Aviation. It has a common raid for 16 hours. He held a number of command posts. In the year, he mastered flights on international lines. He performed flights to 65 countries. While on a business trip in Luxembourg on the rental of the Swiss company Metro Cargo, he participated along with other Russian crews in the transportation of military goods and armored vehicles.

In June of that year, he was sent on a business trip to the United Arab Emirates the city of Sharjah, performed flights with cargoes to Afghanistan. The commander of the aircraft was Vladimir Sharpatov. The crew of the aircraft was captured. The captivity stretched for days. All attempts by Russia and international organizations, including the UN Security Council for the liberation of the crew and the aircraft were unsuccessful.

The power version of the liberation was practically not real in those conditions. There was an attempt to buy off. Secret negotiations were conducted with the leadership of the Taliban movement. But for many reasons, the consent was not reached. The Taliban accused the pilots and Russia as a whole of interfering in intra -Afghan affairs and placed the crew for intensified security until the relationship and fulfill all their many requirements.

The pilots were kept in the economic extension of the house of Governor Kandahar and were under the 24 -hour armed security. The crew was inclined to accept Islam, work on the Taliban and constantly threatened with execution in accordance with Sharia. I was also facilitated by the fact that on July 10, when performing technical work, permission to move around the airfield was obtained during a very large security, during which the wheel burst.

This was the reason for traveling to the airfield of all crew members to replace the wheels from their reserve. On this day on August 12, the equipment again found themselves “in a conspiracy” with the crew. When starting the “launch” of the Armed Forces, the turbine overheating began and the automation turned it off. While the turbine was cooling, the guard went to pray, leaving 3 machine gunners in the cab.

A little later it was possible to start it and on two main engines to start steering, launching the 3rd and 4th on the go, as well as preparing equipment for take-off. They acted more than ever harmoniously and clearly: the engineers closed the ramp, the sidewell launches the engines, the radio operator checks the connection. The actions of the crew did not arouse suspicions among the guards.

Maybe only a closing ramp a little alerted the Taliban. The take -off tried to block 2 cars. The separation of the aircraft occurred literally from the last plate of the strip, after which the security finally “recovered” and reloaded one of the machine guns. The crew went for their disarmament, and the commander, having made a “hill”, created weightlessness with subsequent reverse overload and continued the flight at an altitude of meters above the dunes, nearly falling into the tornado.

The title of Hero of Russia was awarded by Decree of the President of Russia of August 22. The star of the Hero of Russia V. Sharpatov was presented in the Kremlin by the Prime Minister V., after returning from captivity, V. Sharpatov continued to work for some time at the Airtons, but on December 1, at the age of 58, he was dismissed “to reduce the states”.

I unsuccessfully tried to achieve recovery at work, even through the court. He left for the city of Tyumen, where the pilot again sat down at the helm of the Tyumenavia airline. In particular, he flew to Turkey, Emirates. At the age of x years, he left the flight work.
