Maxm Kuznetsov, 36, is seen fleeing the cockpit moments after the Aeroflot Sukhoi SuperJet made an emergency landing and burst into flames on Sunday. Yet after climbing down a rope to safety, the co-pilot fights off rescuers in hi-viz jackets to rush back up the emergency slide at the Sheremetyevo airport. Pilot Denis Evdokimov, 42, said yesterday: ‘The second pilot was the first to leave the cockpit, then I did.’ But he did not explain further how he exited the plane. The stricken plane had crash-landed on the runway with its tank full of unburned jet fuel after it was forced to turn back to Moscow when a lightning strike knocked out the plane's communications. Russian investigators are today probing why the lightning strike - described by experts as a fairly common occurrence - led to a disastrous crash-landing, which killed 41 people.
