A 23 -year -old skiers, who lost his mother and father in the air disaster over the Botomac River, revealed on Thursday, other than his former parents, Olympian, their journey at the last minute.
Maxim Nomov suffered a tragic loss on January 29 when the US Airlines plane carrying his parents, Evjinniah Shishakova and Fadi Nomov, as well as 62 other passengers and crew, collided with a military helicopter near Reagan National Airport.
The couple was initially supposed to take a different flight from the skiing championship in the United States in Whitchita before choosing to jump on the fateful US Airways flight 5342.
“My mother told me that they are replacing flights and that if I can capture it,” said Maximov Nomov today, Craig Milvin on Thursday.
“My mom always emails and calls me as soon as it falls.”
But he did not receive a call.
Instead, the sad son can only stick to the memories of his parents, including the last thing his mother told him.
It was my mother who called me, she said: “Hey, I just want you to know that we love you while we were proud of you.” That means everything for me. “
“I mean my whole life, and it was part of it to make them proud.”
Sheikh Numov and Shishakova, who was born in Russia, were coaches at the Ski Club in Boston after a comprehensive profession that included the Olympic Games and winning the title of husbands in the world skiing championship in 1994.
Maxim, an alternative to the American national team, was in Whitchta for the tournament in January, but left a few days ago.
He performed an influential performance in the honor of his late parents earlier this month, which he ended up falling on his knees and crying in front of 15,000 people.
He said, looking back at the moment: “I was not thinking about the steps, I was not thinking about leaps, courses, or anything like that, just let my body go and I did not feel it before.”
His parents remembered incredibly beautiful and gentle.
“The only way out is. There is no other way,” Maxim said, talking about sadness.
“There are no options but to continue. I don't have strength, passion, drive, or dedication of one person anymore. It's three people.”
