Fatal Savannah plane crash death of Boris Yusupov – Obituary
Boris Yusupov, a resident of Glen Rock, New Jersey, has been identified as the pilot who tragically died in a plane crash in Savannah on Sunday night, October 13. Yusupov was flying from Miami Executive Airport when the aircraft went down in midtown Savannah just before 10 p.m.
A second person was on board with Yusupov and survived with only minor injuries. The passenger’s identity has not yet been released. The crash is under investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which is expected to release a preliminary report within 30 days, while a final report could take up to two years.
Yusupov was flying a 1964 Cessna 336, co-owned by Jorge Marti of Miami, who had listed the plane for sale. While the cause of the crash has not been confirmed, a local aircraft mechanic speculated that fuel exhaustion may have been a factor.
A GoFundMe has been created to help Yusupov’s family with funeral expenses and other financial needs. The organizer described Yusupov as a “devoted husband and loving father of four young children” and an experienced pilot who shared his passion for flying with many. The fundraiser has raised over $11,000 as of Friday.
