That was the question investigators were faced with when it came down to understanding the details of how Air Inter Flight 148 unfolded. And as it turns out, a combination of a complicated approach, cockpit stress, the way that certain information on the flight deck was represented and an unfortunate coincidence, all came together in a deadly combination that spelt disaster. So, what exactly went wrong? Well, come with me my viewer. Together we’ll delve into the Story of Air Inter Flight 148. #aviation #france #planecrash

Located on the south side of the mighty Hollands Diep Estuary, not much ever happens here. However, in the evening of October 6th, 1981, this village was thrust into national headlines and became a focal point of interest for Air Crash Investigators as they arrive at the site of a baffling accident. As it would turn out, this corner of the Dutch countryside would also draw the interest of meteorologists. The case of NLM City Hopper Flight 431 is unlike any other aviation accident we have ever discussed previously or will likely ever discuss again. It is a one-of-a-kind accident. A regional jet, performing a short routine domestic flight in The Netherlands goes horribly wrong when it flies into bad weather. The pilots had no idea of the true extent of its ferocity. In an age before sophisticated weather radar and forecasts, they were clueless to the fact that they had just flown into one of nature’s most devastating weapons, #aviation #tornado

This is one accident that really speaks for itself. It’s a stunning tale of how one small mistake, birthed from the need to navigate a perceived threat from an old design flaw, how a simple accident quickly transformed into something truly monstrous. What happened here is, in every sense of the word, horrific. Pure terror, and none of it had to happen. In this episode of Disaster Breakdown, I tell you the tale of Air Canada Flight 621.

You’re a passenger on a flight, flying home following a vacation. All seems well until an explosion on board shatters the atmosphere of the plane mid-flight. Smoke enters the cabin, and a potentially fatal situation has suddenly unfolded. On the flight deck the pilots lose instruments and are faced with numerous alerts as they try to figure out what the hell happened here. In a rapid descent they make a quick turn to a nearby airport. This is the harrowing scenario of one such flight in 1985. However, we also want to understand why this happened, and how this incident was connected to a wider issue that existed at the time. Fasten your seatbelt, this is the harrowing story of Monarch Airlines Flight 390. 00:00 Intro 01:19 Part I: Setting the Scene 04:58 Part II: The Amber Devil 10:59 Part III: The Monarch Incident 19:23 Part IV: The Part Where It Kills You 23:23 Closing #aviation #investigation

Looking at the decision that was made, the events that led up to it and analyzing what investigators had to say about what went down at that critical time. So, let's look at this together.

It’s perhaps one of the more haunting air disasters to have ever occurred. When you eventually get to the bottom of this case and you unpack all of the details that lie within, you’ll see that, a lot of aspects of this plane and flight, had to go wrong for the outcome of this disaster to actually transpire. What happened was a baffling chain of events that left Helios Airways Flight 522 in a state of lifelessness. It is referred to as a “Ghost Plane”. This Boeing 737 was unresponsive, for hours. The lives of 121 people were locked inside the cold empty shell of a plane. They had fallen victim to an invisible killer that brought them into darkness.

Just when residents of New York had prepared for the holiday, the festive spirit was suddenly shattered. At precisely 10:33 in the morning on December 16th, 1960, residents in the New York Borough of Staten Island heard a distant noise. In the moments that followed debris fell from the sky, raining down from the clouds. Less than two minutes later a passenger plane was recorded to have crashed over in Brooklyn. The worst air disaster ever recorded at that time had just unfolded in the sky above their homes. This is a story that has long since been forgotten or perhaps it's rather been relegated to the shadows of the many stories than have been told about New York City. Many New Yorkers today have never heard of what became known by those who still remember it, as the Park Slope Air Disaster. Two of the largest planes that 1960 could afford collided in midair, and one of them was not where they should have been. This is that story. You can ask questions of, what lessons were learnt from this critical moment in aviation history. But if you ask me, a further question to ask would be, shouldn’t action have already been taken to prevent this exact tragedy. My viewer, come with me, let me tell you all about this tragic event. Let’s cross the ocean and take to the skies together and unpack what happened on that fateful day. #aviation #christmas #america

It was taken on November 23rd, 1996, on Galawa Beach, a secluded stretch of sand on the Northern Coast of Ngazidja, the largest island of the Comoros Archipelago. The video itself was taken by an unsuspecting tourist as they lounged on the beach. Suddenly a passenger plane emerged into view from her left. With the camera rolling, she captured this moment... This was the outcome of a hijacking gone wrong. This video has been shared around a lot in its time, both on television and in the age of the internet, and I do not think we really appreciate just how shocking this recording actually is. It’s not every day that you happen to video a plane crashing onto the water let alone a wide-body passenger plane. This just does not happen. But we are not here to talk about this video in and of itself, we are here to unpack the subject, the plane itself. How did it end up this way? Who Hijacked the plane and why?

These were just some of the images taken by investigators in the aftermath, the inside, hollowed, burnt out shell of the aircraft. These images tell of the horror that befell this plane. Saudia Flight 163 is one of the worst air disasters ever recorded. It’s a tale of Fire Safety, Miscommunication, Mismanagement, and a baffling chain of events that led to complete disaster.

Consider joining here from £1 per month: https://www.patreon.com/DisasterBreakdown Twitter: https://twitter.com/Chloe_HowieCB The case of Dana Air Flight 0992 is one based in chronic airline mismanagement at a multitude of levels. A complete breakdown in aircraft operation, maintenance and workplace culture compounded against pilot error leading to this devastating disaster which killed 159 people when this passenger plane crashed into residential housing just minutes away from landing at Lagos Airport in Nigeria. When I originally began reading up on this horrifying accident, I didn’t really know what to expect. I certainly wasn’t expecting to uncover the inner workings of an airline teetering on the edge of what is considered to be acceptable airworthiness. At times reading over the deeper layers of this story I just couldn’t believe what I was reading, allow me to read you some of the closing notes here from the investigation real quick... “The inappropriate omission of the use of the checklist” “Lack of situational awareness, inappropriate decision making, poor airmanship”. But let’s rewind here, how did this happen? How does all of this tie together? Well come with me my viewer.

Consider joining here from £1 per month: https://www.patreon.com/DisasterBreakdown Twitter: https://twitter.com/Chloe_HowieCB The tragic story of Air Asia Flight 8501 was the end of a rough year for aviation. A routine flight between Surabaya in Indonesia and Singapore goes horribly wrong at cruise altitude. The Disaster occurring in the twilight days of 2014 claimed the lives of 162 people. Here at Disaster Breakdown we analyze the events of accidents such as this to unpack how they happened. This deep dive into Airasia 8501 will do just that. Its 5 in the morning on Sunday, December 28th, 2014. An Airbus A320, operated by the Indonesian off-shoot of Air Asia was preparing to push back from the gate at Juanda International Airport, in Surabaya on the Indonesian Island of Java. Air Asia Flight 8501, was a short haul hop over to Singapore and nearly every seat was booked for this two and a half hour flight across the Java Sea. 162 passengers and crew turned up at the gate in Surabaya and boarded the aircraft. Curiously though, a total of 23 passengers never showed up for the flight including a family of ten who intended to travel to Singapore for new year’s celebrations. By 5:30 that morning, the jetway was disconnected and the Airbus was pushed back from the gate. This was expected to be a routine flight, a normal morning shift for the pilots and flight attendants. Though surely for many passengers, the flight would be an opportunity to catch up on some sleep. The pilots began taxing the plane down to the far Western side of the airport for a departure from runway 10. 00:00 Preflight 04:06 Routine Flight 08:46 Fly-by-Wire 15:27 December 25th Incident 22:15 Pre FAC Reset 27:09 Sequence of Disaster 33:17 Aftermath #aviation #planes Sources: https://reports.aviation-safety.net/2014/20141228-0_A320_PK-AXC.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20141229180911/http://qz8501.airasia.com/index.html https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/indonesia/surabaya/historic?month=12&year=2014 https://skybrary.aero/articles/electronic-centralized-aircraft-monitor-ecam https://skybrary.aero/articles/flight-control-laws#:~:text=As%20an%20example%2C%20the%20A320,Computer)%20and%20two%20SECs%20(Flight http://www.straitstimes.com/news/asia/south-east-asia/story/airasia-flight-qz8501-pilot-iriyanto-was-one-military-academys-best- https://web.archive.org/web/20141228094208/http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/reports-of-plane-crash-in-belitung-timur-says-indonesian-portal http://heavenslie.com/My%20Obits/2014/Remi%20Emmanuel%20Plesel.html https://nasional.kompas.com/read/2014/12/28/12591571/Cari.Pesawat.AirAsia.TNI.AU.Kerahkan.Boeing.737.Surveillance https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/indonesia/11317592/AirAsia-QZ8501-wreckage-found-by-fisherman-who-did-not-know-plane-was-missing.html https://www.cbsnews.com/news/sonar-finds-location-of-downed-airasia-flight-8501/ https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/airasia-plane-crash/airasia-flight-8501s-co-pilot-was-flying-jet-crash-official-n295861 https://apnews.com/article/14c1530f29f444f285f13889f7510681 https://taketotheskypodcast.com/airasia-flight-8501/ https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/blind-to-the-problem-the-crash-of-indonesia-airasia-flight-8501-b49e71f71b11

A train derailed in Scotland, precisely here near to the town of Stonehaven. On that fateful day, a nation received the news that had a fatal train accident took place on the railway line that runs between Aberdeen and Dundee. For the first time in over a decade, a train not only derailed in a devastating accident but induced fatal injury. Railway accidents have become exceedingly rare in the United Kingdom in recent years, coinciding with this, deaths related to the railway have also drastically decreased to nearly zero. Most deaths related to rail accidents in the UK after 2004 have mostly been linked level crossing incidents. But this never really involved a train going off the rails, with one notable exception in 2007. Needless to say that rail travel in Britain, despite its many flaws, is incredibly safe. Which may be why so much attention was drawn to the 2020 derailment at Carmont in Scotland. It immediately became headline news across the country. It was the first major rail accident in years. It should be noted right off the start, that this could have been far greater tragedy than it already was. Occurring in 2020 at the height of the Pandemic, the number of rail travellers at that time were limited in numbers. This is the story of the Stonehaven Derailment. We’ll explore what happened here and the events leading up to that fatal accident. 00:00 Intro 01:43 Train Background 07:36 Weather Report 10:04 Carmont Drain 12:26 tf is a Carillion 18:58 The Accident #trains #scotland Sources: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/62275094e90e0747ae239cf4/R022022_220310_Carmont_High_resolution.pdf https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1059412/R022022_220310_Carmont.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iP0PJMu_8s&ab_channel=RailAccidentInvestigationBranch%28RAIB%29 https://twitter.com/metoffice/status/1293313295433302019 https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/binaries/content/assets/metofficegovuk/pdf/weather/learn-about/uk-past-events/interesting/2020/2020_07_august_rain.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch-ptiVr1Hk&ab_channel=RichardB1983 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d926NZL2xOE&ab_channel=RailAccidentInvestigationBranch%28RAIB%29 https://www.sepa.org.uk/media/536333/the-flash-floods-of-11-and-12-august-2020.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20200817173621/https://cdn.networkrail.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Scotland-Route-WRCCA-Plan.pdf https://news.sky.com/story/stonehaven-train-crash-that-killed-three-people-caused-by-errors-in-construction-of-drainage-system-report-says-12561990#:~:text=The%20three%20people%20who%20died,and%20passenger%20Christopher%20Stuchbury%2C%2062. https://www.railwaysarchive.co.uk/documents/EveningExpress_Carmont1915.pdf https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/stonehaven-rail-crash-victims-might-26426770 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAtmS0gUstE&ab_channel=5News https://www.theconstructionindex.co.uk/news/view/carillion-blamed-for-fatal-derailment

The Boeing 737 suffered two fatal accidents as the result of a design flaw that had been kept hidden for so long. What was it? Why wasn't it fixed? This episode of Disaster Breakdown takes a look into the accidents of United Airlines Flight 585 and USAir Flight 427 and the background of the investigation.

Consider joining here from £1 per month: https://www.patreon.com/DisasterBreakdown Twitter: https://twitter.com/Chloe_HowieCB In the world of Air Crash Investigation, some of the most crucial pieces of evidence can be found inside an airplane’s flight recorders. Having a recording from on board an aircraft ready to be retrieved to tell the events of an ill-fated flight is invaluable to any investigation. They can tell some remarkable things, and sometimes investigators can get a whole lot more than they bargained for. We’ll be talking about one such case today. When you think of the term Flight Recorder, two different objects may come to mind. There’s the Flight Data Recorder which records various parameters and technical data about a flight, and then there is the Cockpit Voice Recorder, which does exactly what it sounds like. One or more microphones positioned in the flight deck recording the conversations of the pilots. Together these two items, though they are known colloquially as “Black Boxes” they are typically coated in bright orange. Done so to stand out amongst plane wreckage or at the bottom of the sea. As you’d expect therefore, given the sensitive nature of the voice recorder’s content, these aren’t always released to the public unlike say accident reports or photographs. Sometimes they are for various reasons if it is in the public interest, some countries have been known to release these recording more liberally than others. In other cases the recordings themselves are withheld but they are transcribed. Today though we are going to look into the case of Braniff International Airways Flight 352. This is a rather rare case of an air accident. Where though the disaster took place 55-years-ago and for almost all of that time the cockpit voice recording was kept from the public, just two months ago at time of recording this video, it surfaced. Though the recording was withheld, I’d say having looked into it, I’d describe it more as lost. In remarkable circumstances it was only re-discovered recently and publicly released. And there is a story there, which we’ll get to later. This is one of the oldest Cockpit Voice Recordings to ever surface from a crash. The recording sheds further light into that flight deck of 55-years-ago. What we are about to unearth and breakdown here today, are the events leading up to a fatal catastrophe that could so easily have been avoided and with the help of this recording, we’ll piece together why. 00:00 Intro 02:37 Flight Background 08:22 Weather Report 15:03 The Accident 33:39 Aftermath 38:16 What Happened to the CVR #aviation #america #texas Sources: https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/AccidentReports/Reports/AAR6903.pdf https://library.noaa.gov/Collections/Digital-Collections/US-Daily-Weather-Maps https://weatherspark.com/h/m/9247/1968/5/Historical-Weather-in-May-1968-in-Houston-Texas-United-States https://www.dtn.com/a-brief-history-of-weather-radar/ https://medium.com/@davidwilson1776/the-crash-of-braniff-flight-352-5101f0f93c46 https://garagehangover.com/studio/sellers-company-recording-studio-dallas/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h98uCRmN9Q4&ab_channel=FortWorthStar-Telegram https://support.garmin.com/en-GB/?faq=A6sZlRdiSRAe2MywR0kwj5#:~:text=Above%20this%20level%20in%20thunderstorm,significant%20hazards%20such%20as%20hail. https://navarrocountygazette.com/2022/05/03/history-braniff-flight-352-may-3-1968/?fbclid=IwAR1yBpBob3enwEwZtFuqEVMb4ufJsoSBsYji6fnG2Ycwm6vgk01PKMRHbcc https://www.sciencefocus.com/planet-earth/what-is-a-squall-line/ https://www.usgs.gov/special-topics/water-science-school/science/precipitation-and-water-cycle#:~:text=Precipitation%20is%20water%20released%20from,Most%20precipitation%20falls%20as%20rain. https://www.weather.gov/media/ohx/PDF/QLCS.pdf https://baaa-acro.com/index.php/crash/crash-lockheed-l-188a-electra-dawson-85-killed https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19680503-0https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19680503-0 https://www.star-telegram.com/news/state/texas/article274693901.html **I had some trouble accessing this site internationally, suggest using a VPN**

This country in Eastern Europe has been the site of political uprisings, war and disaster. In the early days of 2020, before the current ongoing conflict in the country, Ukrainians woke on January 8th of that year, to the devastating news that one of their passenger planes had crashed shortly after take-off, with the lives of 176 people lost. Plane crashes are rare in the modern day. Well, they have always been a rare occurrence, however relatively speaking compared to 30, 40 years ago, they just don’t occur as often as they used to and that is a testament to how far the aviation industry has come in terms of safety. Looking at air travel in the 2020s, pilots and engineers pull from over a century’s worth of experience and hard lessons learned. That is why this Disaster is so shocking. Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752. There was nothing wrong with this plane, there was nothing wrong with the pilots, there was nothing nefarious stored in the plane’s cargo. It was purely external factors that brought this plane down. Given how recent this event was there’s a good chance you have some idea as to what happened that night. For you see, the category of disaster this falls into is shocking and completely preventable, but it has happened on numerous occasions, and you’d expect that something like this just should not happen in the modern day. But let’s look into it, see if we can get to the bottom of it. Let’s preface this with saying that this video has been constructed with the aid of a multitude of sources including multiple reports from the Iranian Investigation, international investigators and independent investigators alongside numerous other related sources. So with that said, lets uncover the inner workings that brought this event to the disaster it was. #aviation #ukraine Sources: https://reports.aviation-safety.net/2020/20200108-0_B738_UR-PSR.pdf https://spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMResultsBase/DownLoadPublicCommunicationFile?gId=25795https://www.ps752justice.com/justice/ https://web.archive.org/web/20200110072846/https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international/world-news/ukraine-leader-warns-against-speculation-after-plane-crash/articleshow/73153310.cms https://www.ps752justice.com/docs/ https://www.international.gc.ca/gac-amc/publications/flight-vol-ps752/factual_analysis-analyse_faits.aspx?lang=eng#a3_5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Af_Tdxc07Ao&ab_channel=AirCrashDaily https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-51055219 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-51073621 https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/flight-752-iran-tehran-1.5565356 https://web.archive.org/web/20210613195207/https://www.justsecurity.org/68359/human-shielding-by-omission-in-iran/ https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/ukrainian-flight-ps752-crashes-shortly-after-take-off-from-tehran/ https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/avtalk-episode-75-the-downing-of-ps752/ https://www.flightglobal.com/safety/ukrainian-737-recorders-indicate-crew-survived-initial-missile-strike/139868.article https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/sep/14/our-lives-are-destroyed-families-take-fight-for-truth-of-flight-752-to-icc https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/1/19/bodies-of-ukrainian-victims-of-iran-plane-crash-repatriated https://www.hrw.org/news/2021/05/27/iran-ukraine-airline-victims-families-harassed-abused https://www.iranintl.com/en/202207079895 https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/04/20/iran-court-issues-sentences-downing-ukraine-flight-ps752 https://www.mehrnews.com/photo/4820004/%D8%B3%D9%82%D9%88%D8%B7-%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%A6%DB%8C%D9%86%DA%AF-%DB%B7%DB%B3%DB%B7-%D8%A7%D9%88%DA%A9%D8%B1%D8%A7%DB%8C%D9%86%DB%8C https://taketotheskypodcast.com/ukraine-international-airlines-flight-752/ https://www.thenationalnews.com/world/mena/full-transcript-leaked-audio-appears-to-show-iran-immediately-knew-it-shot-down-ukrainian-plane-1.974192 https://ghostarchive.org/iarchive/instagram/therichkidsoftehran/2217710607380100341

A Boeing 747 with the lives of 329 people on board vanished from radar screens in the morning of June 23rd, 1985. The massive plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean around 120 miles off the coast of Ireland. There were no survivors. The Story of Air India Flight 182 involves a lot of moving parts, the loss of this plane was just part of a larger plot. This was an act of terrorism, a b0mbing, one that actually intended to kill a lot more people. In this video we’ll construct a timeline of this terrorist act. We’ll put the pieces together and find out just how the b0mb got on board, who the perpetrators were and see if we can establish a motive.

In aviation this plane is seen as one of the greatest technological leaps of the 20th century. The Comet was the world’s first Jet passenger plane. Not this particular comet this was a later variant of the plane. But the Comet family first took to the skies in the twilight days of the 1940s. As the world entered a new decade the plane was a symbol of British Engineering, a statement that Britain was cementing itself as a mainstay in the aviation industry, leading the way no less. As the first jet airliner developed behind closed doors, its arrival turned the heads of engineers all over the world. The comet could fly fast, slashing flight times between destinations. The comet could fly higher and provided a greater level of comfort to its passengers. For half a decade, the comet went unchallenged in the aviation industry. It wasn’t until 1956 when the Soviet Union launched the Tupolev 104 and later with the arrival of the Boeing 707 and DC8 that the plane was met with some kind of competition. For what it all the Comet was worth though, it certainly wasn’t without tragedy. Breaking into new frontiers in the sky, the arrival of the comet seemed to present more technological hurdles than previously thought. The early days of this plane are marred with multiple accidents that claimed dozens of lives. In this video we’ll look a little deeper into the tragic history of the Comet focusing on a particular accident that signalled the beginning of the end of this iconic aircraft. #aviation 00:00 Intro 01:43 BOAC Flight 781 09:23 Troubled Skies 13:00 South African Airways Flight 201 15:30 It Wasn't The Square Windows 22:03 Meet The Comets Sources: https://www.baaa-acro.com/sites/default/files/import/uploads/2017/04/G-ALYP.pdf https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19540110-1 https://web.archive.org/web/20170827210413/http://www.ntsb.org/Wiringcargodoorlite/Additional%20Aircraft%20Accident%20Reports_files/CometAAR-1.pdf https://www.nms.ac.uk/explore-our-collections/stories/science-and-technology/comet-4c/#:~:text=The%20de%20Havilland%20Comet%20was,Did%20you%20know%3F&text=The%20Comet%20made%20the%20first,aircraft%20on%202%20May%201952.&text=The%20last%20civil%20Comet%20to,East%20Fortune%20in%20September%201981. https://www.baesystems.com/en-uk/heritage/de-havilland-comet-3---4 https://simpleflying.com/last-de-havilland-comet-flight/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DjnG74DDno&t=1077s&ab_channel=MentourNow%21 https://www.baaa-acro.com/crash/crash-de-havilland-dh106-comet-1-elbe-island-35-killed http://www.dh-aircraft.co.uk/aircraft/dh106/comet2/

The term Fuel Starvation is attached to this accident. It’s a term that is pretty self-explanatory and Fuel Starvation could occur for many reasons and it’s not always as straight forward as a plane simply running out of fuel though that has happened. It can also refer to a scenario where the engines are not receiving the fuel they demand. The case of British midland Flight 542, the Stockport Air Disaster I would say falls into that sub category. This was case of fuel being present on the plane, yet engine flameout still occurred. So what happened here? Well to unpack this we need to back to 1967. #aviation Sources: https://www.baaa-acro.com/sites/default/files/2018-04/G-ALHG.pdf https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-40095542 https://simpleflying.com/canadair-north-star/ http://www.carlscam.com/stockport/airdisaster.htm https://www.skybrary.aero/articles/aircraft-fuel-systems https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/the-case-of-the-missing-fuel-the-story-of-the-stockport-air-disaster-74685ae96cb3

We trust that our captains are of the highest proficiency in their piloting skills. We understand that they are well experienced, have received the appropriate training from their respective airlines and so on. Airline captains are well respected people not only in their industry but often even just generally. The Captain involved in today’s discussion of an Air Disaster was one of those highly regarded and respected pilots, an award winning pilot no less. He was by anyone’s expectation the kind person you’d want to fly your plane, and there’s no catch there he really was an exceptional pilot. But how the disaster of Korean Air Flight 801 unfolded just goes to show how even the most experienced captains are still human and so are limited by their natural bodily processes. This is the story of Korean Air Flight 801. One of the deadliest air disaster to have ever occurred. #aviation Sources: https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/AccidentReports/Reports/AAR0001.pdf https://data.ntsb.gov/Docket/Document/docBLOB?ID=40076731&FileExtension=.PDF&FileName=Airports%2FARFF%2016%20-%20Exhibit%20No.%2016C%20-%20Office%20of%20the%20Governor%20of%20Guam%20Korean%20Air%20801%20Incident%20Report%20Summary-Master.PDF https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/honeymoon-flight-that-ended-in-horror-1244140.html https://www.guampdn.com/news/25-years-later-remembering-kal-flight-801/article_8fced502-120f-11ed-b113-e3f11d784345.html https://tailstrike.com/database/6-august-1997-korean-air-801/ https://atpflightschool.com/become-a-pilot/airline-career/airline-captain-first-officer-explained.html#:~:text=Being%20that%20the%20Captain%20is,to%20help%20fly%20the%20aircraft. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3gkntv

Translated from Polish into English this reads... “Goodnight, goodbye. Bye, we are dying”. These haunting final words came at the very end of a struggle to save the lives of 183. The case Flight 5055 is one where a lot of things went wrong. On May 9th, 1987, this large passenger plane fell out of the sky following a devastating catastrophic failure within the plane’s engines. What followed was a desperate struggle from the pilots to save the plane from crashing. Ultimately this resulted in the deadliest air disaster in Poland’s history. But its how it got to this point is what we need to examine further. Because hidden away beneath this surface of this plane’s skin, is certain type of failure that occurred at multiple levels, mechanical and financial. #aviation ATC Recording Source With Translated Subtitles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHplee2owZg&ab_channel=AlexHoe With On-screen Subtitles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqXQxDZnIgY&ab_channel=ChilloutJr%27s-CVR%26ATCAudioArchive Sources: https://www.fakt.pl/wydarzenia/polska/hanna-checinska-pierwsza-ofiara-katastrofy-w-lesie-kabackim/x126k90 https://www.polot.net/pl/tragedia_il_62_m_sp_lbg_w_dniu_9_05_1987r https://www.emersonbearing.com/products/roller-bearings/#:~:text=Roller%20bearings%20%E2%80%94%20also%20known%20as,moving%20parts%20of%20the%20bearing. http://web.archive.org/web/20071028143342/http://www.wrozka.com.pl/07_98/16.htm https://www.planecrashinfo.com/cvr870509.htm https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1987-05-10-mn-6640-story.htmlhttps://www.baaa-acro.com/operator/lot-polish-airlines-polskie-linie-lotnicze?page=10 https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/under-the-iron-curtain-the-crashes-of-lot-polish-airlines-flights-007-and-5055-f0f1c0ba4a64 https://buzz.gazeta.pl/buzz/7,156947,27986258,czesc-giniemy-to-byla-najwieksza-katastrofa-lotnicza-w.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIUFEgDBDyo&ab_channel=KultAmerica https://taketotheskypodcast.com/lot-polish-airlines-flight-5055/

In the lyrics of the song, the writer makes reference to a February day that then became known as “The Day The Music Died”. This is in reference to a 1959 plane crash that killed not only the pilot of that plane but also three iconic musicians and performers of that era. But how did this tragedy actually happen. Delving into this incident we’ll uncover the story of a pilot who was way out of their depth when faced with a horrifying situation. That’s what we’ll explore today as we delve into what really happened The Day the Music Died. #aviation #music #america Sources: https://web.archive.org/web/20130826140119/http://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1876542,00.html https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/5682/roger-arthur-peterson https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/oct/22/don-mclean-american-pie-its-meaning-family-deaths-tragedy-60s https://whrc-wi.org/americanpie.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDWE63o3qTk&ab_channel=WeirdHistory https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/90096/were-the-original-gyroscopic-artificial-horizons-upside-down https://www.thisdayinaviation.com/tag/sperry-f3-attitude-indicator/

It was filmed by an amateur film maker by the name of Frank Mills. The site, London Heathrow Airport. This plane photographed here had crashed at one of the busiest airports in the entire world. The accident involved the ill-fated plane crashing into a terminal building and damaging three other planes in the process. The curious case of BKS Air Transport Flight C.6845 involves the breakdown in the relationship between the pilot and a key aspect of controllability when flying an aircraft. This is a plane crash that is not all that known about even the United Kingdom, despite the fact that it crashed into an airport building killing most of its occupants. So what went wrong here? Well to begin with lets establish the nature of this flight. As Flight C.6845 was what you could consider to be an unusual one given what was actually on board the plane, and some people, especially some in the United Kingdom may already be familiar with one name attached to this disaster. #aviation #london Sources: https://reports.aviation-safety.net/1968/19680703-0__G-AMAD.pdf https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19680703-0 https://web.archive.org/web/20121112183309/http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1969/1969%20-%202440.html https://www.skybrary.aero/articles/flaps https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/racing-advance-of-the-high-street-bookie-1200462.html https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/equine-air-travel-horses-winning-post-spt-intl/index.html#:~:text=Due%20to%20safety%20regulations%2C%20modern,on%20the%20level%20of%20ticket. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytEVE4-bNWM&t=15s&ab_channel=ScottGrammer MEDIA ATTRIBUTIONS: https://twitter.com/Birdseed501/status/1504374578642104321 https://www.reddit.com/r/aircrashinvestigation/comments/dr0ssl/bea_trident_garpi_damaged_in_1968_by_an_airspeed/

A massive aircraft carrying over 300 people had flown into severe weather. What happened next media outlets labelled as a Miracle. Let’s delve into this Captivating story. In this video we’ll be looking at the aircraft involved, the flight itself and the airport in Toronto. This is the story of Air France Flight 358 August 2nd, 2005, Air France Flight 358 was flying a route from Paris to Toronto in Canada. On board are 309 passengers and crew. The aircraft is an Airbus A340, a massive four engine long range aircraft that first took to the skies in the early 1990s. Though it boasted some very impressive technology like other airbus planes, the a340 didn’t sell as well as its competitors for a variety of reasons. For one it has less powerful engines in its early variants. Many consider the plane to be underpowered. In a world where Twin Jet planes could fly further than they ever had done in the past, airline’s began choosing not invest in four engine aircraft like this. It was more of a liability for what it was worth. More engines meant more maintenance and more money to operate. Despite its limitations the A340 launched with some success and has had an excellent safety record having been involved in very few incidents in its years of operation, even now that plane has been gradually retired from airline fleets around the world. However of the few accidents the plane has been involved in, none are quite as notable as that of Air France flight 358. The French national Airline was once one of the largest operators of the A340 first receiving the planes in 1993. The accident aircraft was one of the earlier models with the smaller less powerful engines. #aviation #canada #france Sources: http://www.tsb.gc.ca/eng/rapports-reports/aviation/2005/a05h0002/a05h0002.pdf https://climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_data/hourly_data_e.html?timeframe=1&Prov=ON&StationID=5097&Year=2005&Month=8&Day=2&type=line&MeasTypeID=stnpress&StartYear=1840&EndYear=2020&time=LShttps://weatherspark.com/h/d/146972/2005/8/2/Historical-Weather-on-Tuesday-August-2-2005-at-Toronto-Buttonville-Municipal-Airport-Canada#Sections-ObservedWeather https://www.smh.com.au/world/we-thought-the-plane-would-blow-up-20050804-gdlsz7.html https://transcripts.cnn.com/show/pzn/date/2005-08-02/segment/01 https://www.theguardian.com/business/2005/aug/02/theairlineindustry.internationalnews

Now just because most of our videos involve planes doesn’t necessarily mean that things have go wrong in the air. Planes have been known to crash whilst on the ground. Today we’re going to be looking at one such incident. The case of Dan Air Flight 0034 that occurred on July 31st, 1979. It’s a tale about negligence, botched maintenance and oil. In 1965, reserves of Natural Gas were discovered off the Coast of East England. For a long time it was long suspected that the North Sea between Scandinavia and the British Isles held large amounts of natural resources. Five years later in 1970, British Petroleum discovered large reserves of oil out here and the North Sea was never the same again. In the following years oil companies from around the world descended upon these waters. Oil rigs went up, drilling commended, oil and gas were extracted and transported back to one of a number of countries which benefitted from access to the North Sea. The two big, involved countries of which being Norway and the United Kingdom. Such infrastructure to do this meant transporting many people to and from the oil platforms and refineries. The easiest way to do that is by air. One of the main gateways to the North Sea was for the longest time, Sumburgh airport. Located at the southern tip of the Shetland Archipelago, North East of Mainland Scotland. #aviation Sources: https://www.gov.uk/aaib-reports/1-1981-bae-hs-748-g-bekf-31-july-1979 https://reports.aviation-safety.net/1979/19790731-0_A748_G-BEKF.pdf https://www.shetlandtimes.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/1979-Dan-Air-Crash.pdf https://www.danairremembered.com/sumburgh.php https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/the-lever-of-death-the-crash-of-dan-air-flight-0034-60219e090dc5#:~:text=The%20flight%20also%20featured%20three,the%20apron%20for%20seven%20hours. https://oeuk.org.uk/members-directory/operators-directory/

On the first night 1978, in the dark night sky, this massive plane photographed plunged into the Arabian sea less than two minutes after takeoff. This was a devastating case that really was a simple accident, yet it claimed so many lives. The accident involved the largest plane of the day, the Boeing 747. The Boeing 747 today is in its Twilight years, yet it is still one of if not the most iconic plane to ever fly. For the longest time there was no plane as big as it, no plane commanded such awe as the four engine Queen of the Sky. We’re going to unpack how this very short flight unfolded.

That was the question people were asking on August 25th, 2001. A small aircraft carrying 9 people appeared to lose control seconds after lifting off the ground. Despite this being a rather small plane, this accident drew a lot of attention given who was on board the aircraft. You see, August 25, 2001, is remembered by those in the music industry as a deeply tragic day. The world lost one of the most promising and rising performers and vocalists of the time. Today we are going to gain an understand as to how this plane was lost. Before we unpack how the accident unfolded. Let’s set the scene here and give a bit of background as to how this flight came into existence and how such a high-profile group of passengers ended up on this tiny plane. Aaliyah Dana Haughton, or just commonly known as Aaliyah was a much-loved singer and performer. She was only 22 years old when she died. In the final years of her life, she erupted onto music scene in the R&B genre. In her rising success she collaborated with producers such as Timbaland and performed alongside such legends as Gladys Knight, in fact Aaliyah was Knight’s niece. In 1994 at age 14 she produced her first Album which received two platinum awards. Aaliyah would go on to produce two more albums in 1996 and 2001. Her success earned her the title of “Princess of R&B”. In between that time, if Music success wasn’t enough, she launched an acting career in 1997 where she starred in two feature films in 2000 and posthumously in 2002 respectively. Her third Album simply titled “Aaliyah” released in 2001 to a highly positive critical reception.

For example your House was on fire, you can escape. If you are travelling on an airplane and an uncontrollable fire breaks out, you have nowhere to go. You are at the mercy of the skill of the pilots and clock to ensure your survival. Some of the most horrific air disasters that have ever occurred have involved inflight fires. Perhaps amongst the most devastating and terrifying cases in this category is the disaster we’re discussing today. The era of history that we know as the Cold War, a lot of images probably spring to mind. The city of Berlin, today the German Capital, was pretty much at the epicenter of a division between East and West. The city itself was divided in two, the West side of the city, an exclave of West Germany within the east. A wall separated the two. This split was in part a result from the events of the Second World War. After the war the Soviet Union occupied the Eastern half of the city and indeed East Germany as a whole, aside from West Berlin. The Soviet Union wanted to expand their sphere of influence. East Germany became a puppet state like other countries in Eastern Europe East Germany for this era of history was a separate country from the rest of Germany. It had all the things you’d expect a different country to have. Its own government, its own infrastructure, its own currency and of course to lead onto our topic today, its own airline. The East German airline was called Interflight or in German Interflug. Interflug operated between the years of 1958 and 1991 and were based out of what was known as the time as Berlin Schönefeld airport. As East Germany was under the influence of the Soviet Union, the aircraft they operated were Czech, Russian and Ukrainian made. The Soviet Union throughout the 1950s and 1960s, much like other countries were developing their own aviation technology as things transitioned into the jet age. In 1963, the Soviet Union unveiled what was at the time, the largest passenger plane ever made. A four rear mounted engine jetliner called the Ilyushin IL-62. #aviation Sources: http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19720814-0 https://www.spiegel.de/politik/stotterndes-geheul-a-65e171db-0002-0001-0000-000042872065?context=issue http://www.interflug.biz/DM-SEA.htm https://www.airliners.de/vor-40-jahren-absturz-bei-konigs-wusterhausen/27798 https://www.baaa-acro.com/crash/crash-ilyushin-ii-62-konigs-wusterhausen-156-killed http://www.if-interflug.de/Flotte/Unfall/unfall.html#DM-SEA https://www.cloverelectric.com/what-is-electrical-arcing#:~:text=Electrical%20arcing%20is%20when%20electricity,This%20is%20arcing. https://www.tc.faa.gov/its/worldpac/techrpt/artn089.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lRvlZzxeKQ&ab_channel=Andoreasu73

When an air accident does occur in this small country it receives a lot of attention. The crash of Ansett New Zealand Flight 703 was the first loss of a passenger plane since the 1979 Antarctica Disaster. Flight 703 is a case that involves a plane with a unique design, so we’ll be taking a look at this plane today and the events that led to the loss of this aircraft. The morning of June 9th, 1995. Ansett New Zealand Flight 703 was cruising over New Zealand’s North Island. The plane had just left Auckland at 8:17 that morning for a roughly one hour flight south to Palmerston North, located in the south of New Zealand’s North Island. On board were 21 passengers and crew. Up in the Flight Deck were two highly experienced pilots. 40-year-old Captain Garry Sotheran possessed nearly 8000 total flight hours flying a variety of different planes. His first officer that day was also rather experienced, 33-year-old Barry Brown had achieved 6 and a half thousand flight hours by the time of the accident. The rest of the occupants included 18 passengers and 1 flight attendant. #aviation Sources: https://www.taic.org.nz/sites/default/files/inquiry/documents/95-011.pdf https://www.aerospace-technology.com/projects/dash8/#:~:text=The%20newest%20member%20of%20the,density%2C%20short%2Dhaul%20routes. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/verdict-leaves-pilot-speechless/VXUVYR5UF4RIGSRC42RACCSOWE/ https://community.infiniteflight.com/t/25-years-on-ansett-new-zealand-flight-703/448084 https://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/1118-ansett-dash-8-crash-pointless-prosecution.html

It’s about the last thing you’d ever want to be involved in. It carries such a deadly connotation with it. We’ve looked at a number of midair collisions over the years. Perhaps though none are more systemically egregious than that of the Zagreb incident. Where this midair collision differs from most we have talked about recently, is that this accident occurred in high altitude airspace, in what was supposed to be some of the most closely watched airways in Europe. This wasn’t during approach, not involving small private planes. This was a case of, large planes, high altitude, same place same time. Forget for a moment, all of the technology that has been developed over the years to prevent this exact type of accident. Its 1976, you’re an air traffic controller, you’re sat there looking at your radar screen as two radar echoes merge then disappear. Imagine for a moment the weight one must have to carry knowing they had a direct hand in what was the deadliest midair collision to have ever occurred at that time. The Zagreb disaster is by the way still to this day the third deadliest accident in this category. This was the burden given to one unfortunate controller on September 10th, 1976. However as we go through this story, we’ll stumble across numerous problems plaguing Yugoslavia airspace, and many people in the years since this disaster have questioned whether the Air Traffic Controller was really the one at fault. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5422f5bf40f0b6134200052f/5-1977_G-AWZT__and_YU-AJR.pdf https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5422f5c040f0b61342000531/5-1977_G-AWZT_and_YU-AJR_Append.pdf https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/philosophy-of-blame-the-story-of-the-1976-zagreb-mid-air-collision-38202bfc1ad7 https://web.archive.org/web/20080608044506/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,946615,00.html https://www.aerotime.aero/articles/32185-in-history-the-1976-zagreb-mid-air-collision https://www.jutarnji.hr/naslovnica/jos-sanjam-kofere-kako-padaju-s-neba-3890418 https://hr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zrakoplovna_nesre%C4%87a_pokraj_Zagreba_1976. https://totalinfo.hr/video-svjedocanstva-mario-mihaljevic-javljao-je-o-sudaru-zrakoplova-iznad-vrbovca-sa-176-poginulih/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZrJoU8pqkI&t=1500s

With a population of 18,000 it is far from the most well-known place in the United Kingdom but on June 18th, 1972, this small town was thrusted into the national spotlight. The town of Staines became the scene of what was and still is to this day, the deadliest air disaster to occur on British soil. British European Airways Flight 548 crashed just minutes after take-off. It was supposed to be a short flight, one of less than an hour to Brussels, so what went wrong? Well for that we need to rewind the clock that day which brings us to Heathrow Airport? So how did things end up in disaster so quickly? It would turn out, there are many layers to this story. But before we get there, we need to have a quick talk about the plane involved. #aviation Sources: https://www.gov.uk/aaib-reports/4-1973-g-arpi-18-june-1972 http://www.pilotfriend.com/disasters/crash/bea548.htm https://www.britairliners.org/airliners-article?title=the-magic-moving-map&id=36 https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/atherosclerosis/ https://www.baaa-acro.com/crash/crash-hawker-siddeley-hs121-trident-1c-london-118-killed https://www.pprune.org/archive/index.php/t-647322.html https://www.baesystems.com/en-uk/heritage/hawker-siddeley-hs121-trident https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_Z--AjavgA&ab_channel=LEEAIRVideos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1TDqZIt1fc&t=23s&ab_channel=LondonAircraft https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGqkH3HsCU4&ab_channel=SkyshipsEng

The image of the quiet California suburb under the clear warm sky was set ablaze in total devastation as a passenger plane crashed into the homes of residents. Several homes were destroyed, over 80 people were now dead. For those at the scene of the disaster, this already horrific day would take another devastating turn as the wreckage of a second plane was discovered just a few blocks away. This terrifying accident would bring into question the safety of our skies, especially around busy airports. The date was August 31st, 1986. In the United States the end of summer is associated with the Labor Day holiday, celebrated over a long weekend. It was a quiet Sunday over the skies of Los Angeles, there weren’t that many flights that day. One flight that was operating was Aeromexico Flight 498 from Tijuana to Los Angeles. #aviation Sources: https://web.archive.org/web/20071202184809/http://www.airdisaster.com/reports/ntsb/AAR87-07.pdf http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19860831-0 https://www.presstelegram.com/2016/08/30/cerritos-plane-crash-30-years-ago-you-either-died-or-you-didnt/ https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/watch-the-nightmare-of-flight-498-cerritos-air-disaster/2974880/ https://tailstrike.com/database/31-august-1986-aeromexico-498/ https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3foq22 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czj-81mXQ-4&ab_channel=Cerritos86 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWfyQeS8EIM&ab_channel=Cerritos86

The Douglas DC6 was in the middle of a cross country flight between New York and Seattle, the flight’s next stop was Portland, Oregon. Whilst in Denver, the plane was re-fueled. New passengers got on, and their bags were stored in the plane’s cargo compartment.

The case of National Airlines Flight 27 exposed just how delicate an airplane can be. For an airplane that was brand new and state of the art at the time, this would be the first time this plane entered new headlines for all the wrong reasons. First off, let’s talk a little bit about this plane. You don’t see it all too often today. This is the McDonnell Douglas DC10. For long time viewers of the channel or for those with knowledge of aviation history, you’ll know that the DC10 has a certain negative reputation attached to it, and whether or not that is warranted is down to you and we’ll touch upon that in just a second. But before we get ahead of ourselves, what was this plane really?

The most modern and safest of airplanes at the time had just suffered a devastating accident. Fragments of plane were pulled from the waters off the coast of Bahrain in the Middle East. The night before disaster struck Gulf Air Flight 072. The lives of everyone on board were at the mercy of a series of misjudgments and a deadly phenomenon that can lurk in the dark. What happened on that plane, something took the lives of 143 people and today we’re going to uncover what that was.

One of the deadliest to involve South Korea occurred on April 15th, 2002. Air China Flight 129 crashed into the side of a mountain whilst navigating to its destination airport. What investigators were later trying to figure out, is why. The airport in question is one of the largest airports in South Korea, serving the large city of Busan and the surrounding areas. it has a set of standard procedures that pilots always follow. Planes come and go so often at Gimhae International Airport that the fact that this accident occurred lead to many asking the question of, what actually went wrong here?

I know from firsthand experience; I’ve lived there my entire life. It’s often wet, cold, cloudy with inevitable forecast of more rain. When it comes to aviation, there are a number of airports scattered about the landscape in Northern England. Our story today brings us down to the airport that serves one of the major cities here, Leeds. On May 24th, 1995. There was a plane crash, an airliner, that came down just a few miles out of Leeds Bradford Airport. It was a deadly accident that killed everyone on board. But likely, you’ve never heard of it. This video was a request from a viewer, also a local to the area. It’s one of those accidents that time seemed to forget as it were. So let’s unpack this tragedy, because what we’ll soon uncover is how the weather of the region, left the pilots blind following the loss of a critical instrument.

Some of those accidents have paved the way for major changes in the industry. Others such as the case with the accident we’re discussing today, the problem can be found in what may appear to be the simplest of issues. Austrian Airlines Flight 901 when looked at in hindsight, can show how effective cockpit communication is key for the safe operation of a plane. And how failure to crosscheck can end in death.

A Delta Airlines passenger plane crashed immediately after take-off, the aircraft skidded along the ground after failing to properly climb into the air, bursting into flames on impact with the ground. Investigators would discover that a misconfiguration of the aircraft on take-off was at play in the disaster. We’ve looked at other plane crashes that sort of fall into that category of air disaster but where this accident differs from the others is that the pilots survived. There was a large human element in this disaster that is worth examining. Whereas most of our video take place in the air, today we stay mostly on the ground and examine where thing went wrong. August 31st, 1988. Dallas-Fort Worth airport is one of the largest and busiest airports in the entire world. The airport is one of the major hubs for American Airlines. Delta airlines, doesn’t really have a big base here. Delta Flight 1141 was the return trip from Jackson, Mississippi to Salt Lake City.

Confusion began to mount on the flight deck as the pilots attempted to troubleshoot the problems with their plane. Things went from bad to worse as it appeared there were failures of not one but two engines. But how did things get to this point, that is what we’re going to investigate in this video. The timeline of events of Monday, June 23rd, 1969. The Caribbean nation of the Dominican Republic has long struggled to sustain a National Flag Carrying Airline. It didn’t used to be this way as Dominicana de Aviacion served as the country’s national air carrier between the years of 1944 and 1995. For 51 years, the airline carried passengers and cargo from the Dominican Republic to many countries in the Americas and even Europe, flying out from their bases in Santo Domingo and Puerto Plata.

And when it comes to those accidents that are a bit more unbelievable, this one probably takes the cake. The story behind this air disaster from 2010, when I first read about it, I was personally stunned to find out that this was even real. A small propeller commuter plane was making a routine landing where it suddenly pitched forward and dove into the ground. The pilots seemingly losing control of their plane unexpectedly. The accident killed most people on board. The reason behind this sudden loss of control will leave you baffled.

You check in, run yourself through the security checks and await to board your plane. There are a lot of different people moving a lot of different parts that make up the airline. It’s not just the pilots who make those planes work. Whilst you’re sat in the airport, you’d expect the plane you’re about to board to be kept in good condition. Maintenance and airworthiness at an adequate level to suit your safety. But again, it’s not just mechanics working on the planes who make things run. There are also those who you may never see, who make the decisions at the airline and these decisions can dictate your safety. The story of Partnair Flight 394 is a story about negligence, poor maintenance and cutting corners.

At the time, the deadliest commercial aviation accident to ever occur unfolded in the skies above the Natural Wonder known as the Grand Canyon. The lives of 128 people were tragically cut short as the wreckage of two different planes were found nestled in various parts of the Grand Canyon. When investigators pieced together the events of the day, they discovered massive oversights, holes in safety and the lack of necessary systems to keep passengers safe.

We’ve all seen the prohibited items list at check in and if you’re a frequent flyer you can probably even recite the safety demonstration yourself. Many of the rules as passengers have been birthed throughout the years because someone, somewhere decided to go just a little too far. A reminder of this, a possible case of a careless passenger came in a terrifying tragedy that claimed the lives of over 100 people on one July day in 1973. The Disaster highlighted a massive danger on all commercial planes, and paved the way for radical change and legislation in the aviation industry.

America had largely withdrawn, and the North Vietnamese were closing in on what was known at the time as Saigon, the largest city in South Vietnam. It was about to fall to communist rule. The United States with support from allied nations sought to execute an evacuation operation of Saigon. This included the topic of discussion today, Operation Babylift. Operation Babylift is known primarily for two reasons. The evacuation of thousands of children, including babies from South Vietnam, and the devastating plane crash that claimed 138 of those lives. And that’s what we’ll be focusing on today.

If there is one country we don’t get to talk about all too often on this channel, it’s Ireland. Ireland’s aviation safety record is very admirable. The small country in North West Europe, in the last half century, has only ever seen one fatal plane crash and it didn’t even involve an Irish Airline. Before this period however, Ireland suffered its fair share of air accidents as with many nations adjusting to the new age of passenger air travel. Ireland’s deadliest air disaster occurred on March 24th, 1968. Aer Lingus Flight 712 is certainly interesting as the cause of the accident was never fully determined, and is a perfect case study of an accident in that category and how a small country which had just suffered such a horrifying loss deals with that. When discussing this disaster we naturally have to tread into the uneasy territory of… theoretical possibilities and speculation. One theory even brings up uncomfortable questions about what Ireland’s neighbor was doing that day. Let’s examine the possibilities and see if we can shed some light on the mystery of flight 712. 00:00 Intro 1:35 The Flight 10:00 Initial Investigation 14:04 The Part Where It Gets Interesting 22:12 What The Heck Is A Jindivik? 28:27 Closing Sources: http://www.aaiu.ie/sites/default/files/report-attachments/01.Tuskar_Investigation_Report_1970.pdf http://www.aaiu.ie/sites/default/files/report-attachments/02.Tuskar_Investigation_Report_1970_Appendices.pdf http://www.aaiu.ie/sites/default/files/report-attachments/03.Tuskar_AAIU_REVIEW_2000_Report_No2000-003.pdf http://www.aaiu.ie/sites/default/files/report-attachments/05.Tuskar_International_Study_Team_Full_%20Report_2002.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20091023141645/http://geocities.com/RainForest/Andes/9522/british.htm https://www.buzz.ie/tv/aer-lingus-flight-712-documentary-28191669 https://simpleflying.com/aer-lingus-712-mystery/ https://www.1001crash.com/transport-page-plane_database-lg-2-plane-accident-country-ireland-aircraft-history.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qDwGAIAIKo&ab_channel=ChrisL https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19670622-1 https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19670921-0 https://www.baaa-acro.com/crash/crash-vickers-803-viscount-wexford-61-killed http://www.vickersviscount.net/Default.aspx https://www.theguardian.com/world/1999/jan/11/6 https://www.milfordmarina.com/about/accessing-the-marina/cardigan-bay-danger-area-mod-aberporth# https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnfmpMvasyw&ab_channel=mzo

Aviation history goes back a long time, and even though we’ve made over 100 videos, flying by plane is incredibly safe at the end of the day. There is an old saying that every plane crash makes flying safer, or something a lot those lines. Airplane pilots are on the frontline of that safety. Their years of training in the presence of instructors and simulators have had them preparing for scenarios they may never actually ever face when inside a real cockpit. Even commercial pilots who fly as their day job are unlikely to be faced with a potentially fatal incident. Which is why the story of one pilot is so interesting.

A flight crew not only needs to get the aircraft off the ground but also needs to monitor the plane’s performance. A lot goes on during this delicate time, especially within the plane’s engines. It’s rare for things to go wrong but every pilot is trained for that moment when problems arise. Pilots are extremely talented people; they know what they’re doing. So when the flight crew of one plane in 1994 started rolling down the runway, they never could have imagined that in less than one minute, they’d be staring death in the face.

This is a photograph taken before disaster as the plane subjected in this image, would crash later after it was taken. The lives of 23 people lost along with the plane. So what happened? The Munich Air Disaster is known in part for the loss of numerous notable members of the Manchester United Football Team. For fans of the football club and those who call Manchester home, the Disaster is well known. The accident involved a modern plane for its day, operated by a prestigious operator and flown by two very well respected pilots. So one may have many questions about this accident. So let’s go through the timeline of events that day and see if we can uncover what happened on British European Airways Flight 609.

Disaster struck in the British town of Coventry just 4 days before Christmas. What became an already devastating scene narrowly avoided further fatal consequences as a Boeing 737 clipped the tops of nearby homes before crashing into a wooded area nearby to the local airport, also damaging other infrastructure. What makes this story so intriguing is that for one thing, the purpose of this very flight was actually pretty controversial and unusual. When I tell you, that this plane came from the Netherlands but belonged to the National airline of Algeria, one may have some questions as to just what this plane was doing? Secondly, this is almost a forgotten incident. For the people of Coventry, this was a very localized accident that didn’t really get much nationwide coverage at the time and again very little since. So what was the deal with this mystery plane? And why did it crash?

When you board an aircraft, you put your safety in the hands of those who’ve effectively trained their lives to fly the machine you just stepped onto. It’s a lot of responsibility for someone to take on. If something goes wrong, potentially hundreds of people are dependent on the pilot to take them to safety and in extreme cases, save their lives. Trans Colorado Flight 2286 is a case of two pilots, sat in the flight deck of a plane, who by the end of this video… You may arrive at the conclusion that they probably had no business being on the flight deck on that one specific night in 1988. But not to poison the well too much, lets breakdown some preliminary information. Trans Colorado Airlines was a regional airline that operated out of Denver throughout the 1980s. They were one of those franchise airlines and operated their planes under the Continental Airlines brand as Continental Express.

What was one of the deadliest air disasters to have ever occurred at that time. Flying through the air isn’t always a smooth journey. All airline passengers at some point or another have experienced turbulence, it’s very common. Turbulence could occur anytime and be bumpy, kind of like potholes in the sky. Plane’s though are extremely tough. For example, the materials used to make our modern passenger planes have made it so even the bumpiest of skies won’t necessarily bring a plane down. But it wasn’t always like that. As passengers today, it may be easy to forget that we now have over 100 years of aviation experience to draw from. Plenty of lessons have been learnt about aviation safety in that time, many of them to do with the sky itself, this was one of those lessons. As turbulence is the topic of today’s video, let’s look at the accident of BOAC Flight 911.

Known as the London Underground, or affectionately as “The Tube”, since its beginning all the way back in the 1860s, the network gradually grew over decades to become one of the largest and most comprehensive rapid transit networks it the entire world. It carries millions of people every day to and from every corner of the city and neighboring counties. As you’d might expect, it hasn’t all been without incident. Today we’ll explore the events of one day in 1987 in what became not only one of the deadliest accidents to have occurred on the London Underground in recent history but also an incident that completely changed how we think about the deadly hazard of fire.

How could things turn deadly so quickly. The story of Atlantic Airways Flight 670 involves a plane with a very good safety record, a plane that was built for airports and runways such as this. Some airplanes are built to suit different environments and purposes. The planet is full of variety, so it makes sense that in order to reach and serve as many people as possible, different types of equipment are going to be needed to specialize in one particular area better than others. The British Aerospace 146 is one of those planes. https://www.nsia.no/Aviation/Published-reports/2012-04-eng https://skybrary.aero/articles/ground-speed#:~:text=Definition,the%20surface%20of%20the%20earth. https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/33964/why-does-an-avro-rj85-have-four-engines#:~:text=The%20reason%20it%20has%20four,field%20performance%20and%20redundant%20systems.

On board were 160 people. The pilots were left confused as an unfolding crisis meant the plane was falling from the sky in the middle of the night and the two pilots diagnosed the problem differently. The plane fell to the ground at a high speed, in this video let’s examine the events leading up to where things began falling apart. We’ll be able to pinpoint the origin of the crisis that lead to a disaster that claimed so many lives. West Caribbean Airways was a relatively short lived airline that operated in the years between 1998 and 2005. West Caribbean started as a charter airline connecting Colombia with various islands in the Caribbean. Based out of Bogota and Medellin, the air carrier expanded and also operated domestically within the country with a fleet of very small turboprop planes. As the airline grew over the following years, the airline acquired three McDonnel Douglas MD-80 series airplanes.

The resulting devastation on that September day in 1970 killed all on board the plane. The answers to questions surrounding what happened can be found leading up to and during the take-off phase. Up till that point the pilots had taxied out to the runway without suspecting anything was wrong with their plane. Little did they know that danger lurked where they couldn’t see it. It was only when the plane was accelerating down the runway that things started to go wrong very quickly. So lets explore the background of this flight and examine the details of this take-off process. Lets dive deeper into Trans International Airlines Flight 863.

A Pan Am Boeing 747 had just departed Heathrow for a service to New York. It was a routine flight, a one that the crew would have taken numerous times before. Not long into the flight as the plane climbed above central England, the pilots of this 747 began noticing problems relating to the pressurization of the aircraft. Passing 20,000 feet the plane failed to pressurize. The crew descend and attempted to re-climb but still the plane failed to pressurize as normal. The pilots soon turned their plane back around to London. The pilots did land their plane safely without issues or injury, but the problem became rather clear upon inspect of the door leading to the forward cargo compartment. It had actually become opened. A gap measuring 1 and a half inches, nearly 4 centimeters was exposing the inside of the plane to the outside, leading to failed pressurization. An investigation into what had happened highlighted a design floor in the locking mechanism of the 747s cargo door that had been known for some time. Boeing was clearly aware of issues pertaining to the Cargo Door locks as they released a bulletin on the subject of “Fuselage Door, Hatches and Exits”. The incident was just one in a string of multiple others involving the Cargo Door and the rollout of changes needed to fix the issue on other planes would be slow, caught up in the web of economics. It was only a matter of time before it would strike again. So what was that design flaw? February 24th, 1989. United Airlines Flight 811 was a Trans Pacific flight between Los Angeles and Sydney, Australia. Flight 811, operated at this time by a Boeing 747 made stopovers in Honolulu and Auckland. https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/AccidentReports/Reports/AAR9202.pdf https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19890224-0 https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/172638 https://web.archive.org/web/20180303225556/http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/1989-02-25/news/8901110302_1_engines-honolulu-international-airport-new-zealand http://libraryonline.erau.edu/online-full-text/ntsb/aircraft-accident-reports/AAR90-01.pdf --- Initial NTSB report that was revised.

Today, the technology to detect weather ahead of an aircraft as well as our ability to better forecast weather has meant that accidents pertaining to storms have been substantially reduced over the decades. The thing is, it had been a long time coming and the technology wasn’t always so advanced. Which has meant that planes have flown into some of the most severe weather conditions before. So what happens when a plane flies in the region of some of the most violent storms imaginable?

The Douglas DC10, even before 1979 suffered multiple hull loses and even for a time, held the accolade of being the aircraft involved in the deadliest air disaster to have occurred at that time. It’s a plane which certainly has a divided history. It’s pilots loved the plane. Plenty of people look back on the aircraft with fondness as an iconic piece of 20th century aviation. On the other hand, it had developed a reputation among passengers and the media due to its string of high profile incidents. 1979 was the plane’s deadliest year. Whether or not this reputation was warranted is up for debate. Because as with the case of this accident, there really wasn’t any wrong with the plane. Still, Western Airlines Flight 2605 contributed to that long list of accidents on October 31st, 1979.

It’s an almost impossible to imagine scenario that would bring about many questions for those investigating such an incident. On January 8th, 2016, such an accident took place in Northern Europe. The pilots of a Cargo plane struggling to understand what had happened to their plane. Before they could recover their stricken plane and make sense of their situation, their aircraft and themselves crashed into a mountainous region of Sweden. The recovered Flight data detailed a rather baffling explanation for the crash. So the question now being, just what was going on, on that plane?

Occurring on May 25th, 2002. It is time that we dedicate a whole video to this accident. The disaster itself occurred in a single moment. When investigators analyzed the flight data and cockpit voice recordings, the flight seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary. A very routine flight, on a very unexemplary day. But to understand where the problem that brought this plane down came from, we need to head back in time, looking at the accident plane’s history and even analyzing the events of one evening many years before the notable accident.

In the early hours of June 30th, 2009, this passenger plane carrying 153 people plunged into the sea, nearby to the Comoros Islands. The plane was attempting to land at the small airport in this tiny Island nation. Let’s have a close look at that approach and let’s look at how the plane was handled and what the airport demanded from the pilots. https://bea.aero/docspa/2009/7o-j090629/pdf/7o-j090629.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whJcz8SkzlQ&ab_channel=ChilloutJr%27s-CVR%26ATCAudioArchive http://yemenembassy.ca/doc/Statement%20Yemenia%20Crash.pdf https://skybrary.aero/accidents-and-incidents/a310-vicinity-moroni-comoros-2009 https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20090630-0 https://www.aviationmatters.co/alpha-floor/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=josqvYVSGsE&ab_channel=CNN https://www.saba.ye/en/news199578.htm

A Plane on a cross country trip from New York, was expected to land in Portland but never arrived. The plane was stuck in the air unable to land and today we’ll discuss why. The story of United Airlines Flight 173 is rather confusing. But it’s a story synonymous with pilot fatigue and how the focus on just one aspect of their situation created a far deadlier one that went undiagnosed.

She boarded a commuter train inbound to Paris Gare de Lyon. One of the largest train stations in France, one of the busiest in Paris. Little did she know that this trip would leave a massive impact on French Rail Travel. Boarding this train in the second carriage she was expected to travel to Vert de Maisons Station, just a few stops from Gare de Lyon. The actions of Odile would become a pivotal point but still one of numerous in a disaster that would claim the lives of 56 people. The Gare de Lyon Rail Disaster turned what was a normal Monday evening into pure devastation. How did this happen? Just what was going on, onboard that train?

Today we are going to explore the deadliest Helicopter Disaster to have occurred in Europe. It involves one of the more distinctive helicopters, an aircraft that is more known for its roles in the military, but this was a passenger helicopter. So what happened that led to such a disaster. We need to know more about that particular helicopter and have a closer look at its inner workings.

Some of those who investigated that accident, they looked into the possibility of mis-configuration of the aircraft being a possible cause. Of course that was not the case there, but it does begs the questions of, what does “misconfiguration of a plane” mean? And is it implied that such thing has happened before? The answer to the latter being yes, numerous times. And we’ll look at one of those incidents today. The accident of Northwest Airlines Flight 255 was devastating for Detroit. Lets breakdown what happened that day and just where things went wrong. The date was August 16th, 1987. Detroit’s Metropolitan Airport is one of the largest airports in the United States. Currently today, it is a hub for Delta Airlines. Prior to their acquisition of Northwest Airlines, they too operated a hub out of Detroit. Northwest Airlines was at one point one of the largest airlines in the country.

TAM Airlines Flight 402 crashed immediately after takeoff leading to the deaths of nearly 100 people in what became one of Brazil’s deadliest aviation disasters and also the deadliest to involve that particular plane. So what happened? Clearly the pilots at some point of this short flight lost control. But really, how does that happen at such a critical phase of flight? That is what we’re going to explore today.

Planes regardless of size all follow the same principals of flight. Every plane from the smallest Cessnas to the likes of the Boeing 747, all have the same control surfaces that exploit the same natural physics of flight. The story behind this video is about an accident when a pilot made what would seem like a small mistake at first but when compounded by additional factors, lead to disaster. Getting to the bottom of American Airlines Flight 625 requires looking at not only the plane the pilots were flying but its destination airport and its surrounding area.

This is one of the highest profile aviation disasters to have ever occurred in the United States. It has been the subject of many conspiracies over the years that we won’t be entertaining today. But we will delve into this flight and with the help of the published report from those who conducted the investigation, unpack the events that led the devastation that took the lives of 230 people. July 17th, 1996, was much like any other day. For those who worked at New York’s John F Kennedy Airport, it was a normal summer Wednesday. JFK Airport was the hub for Trans World Airlines or TWA for short. TWA is now a long defunct airline but at one point they were one of the largest air carriers in the United States. sources: https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/AccidentReports/Reports/AAR0003.pdf https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/longterm/twa800/list01.htm https://apnews.com/article/d39d0105e555a8f5d65f9d917e6890d9 https://tailstrike.com/database/17-july-1996-twa-800/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY50L7TuLpM&ab_channel=ChilloutJr%27s-CVR%26ATCAudioArchive https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=159970216106135 https://www.nycbar.org/member-and-career-services/committees/reports-listing/reports/detail/report-and-recommendations-regarding-twa-flight-800-crash https://www.congress.gov/bill/104th-congress/house-bill/3923 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu-ohV4qR2Y&ab_channel=AIRBOYD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax0CxuBah0U&ab_channel=CBSMornings

Research for stories to cover is always on going in the background. Sometimes, I stumble across something that has very few words written about on the internet. The listed Wikipedia article of what we’re going to be discussing today contains a total of 5 sentences, not nearly enough to make a full video on. Interestingly, these same few sentences have been copy and pasted many times across the internet. So very little exists about Philippine Airlines Flight 443 online. Other sources in the form of print media have been helpful in the production of this video. With the additional information, a video timelining the events of this accident flight can be put together. The accident of discussion today takes us to The Philippines in East Asia. This large archipelago home to over 100,000,000 people has islands scattered over an area of 300,000 square kilometers. As you could imagine, millions of people need to be connected somehow and air travel is extremely popular in the country. The city of Cebu is one of the largest in the Philippines. Mactan-Cebu International Airport is a hub for the regional subdivision of Philippine Airlines. We need to go back to 1987 to examine this accident’s events. That year, Philippine Airlines took delivery of a then brand new plane. The British and Irish Built, Short 360.

It sounds like a horrifying scenario, especially when that plane is out over water just out of reach of an airport. That was the reality for the passengers and crew on board Tuninter Flight 1153. The answer as to why this modern passenger plane ran out of fuel lays in a rather unbelievable set of circumstances. That is what we’ll explore today. Lets look at the plane, how it was maintained and how that relates to the accident flight.

It helped transform the 20th century paving the way for a more connected world. As the years and decades went on, more and more planes and people began taking to the skies. Many different airplane manufacturers were competing against one another in a race to build the best and most reliable planes. With the expansion of aviation during this century, the skies new inhabitants needed to learn to share the sky with its original inhabitants. This video is about an air disaster that occurred on one day in 1960, when these two worlds collided.

Data from the plane’s black box continued to puzzle investigators further, the flight recorder plotted data that would seem to indicate the plane performing an impossible maneuver shortly before it crashed.

The village itself is home to just 200 people. As you’d expect from such a quaint English countryside village, not much ever goes on here. That was until one morning… On February 28th, 2001. The quiet village of Great Heck was thrusted onto the national stage as it became the scene of the deadliest rail disaster to occur in the United Kingdom in the 21st century. It follows a string of rail incidents over the past number of years preceding that occurred up and down the country. In this video we’re going to examine the chain of events in this particular incident which goes back several hours before the disaster in what people came to know as the Selby Rail Crash.

The story behind this video however is that of an airplane collision involving three planes. A disaster which occurred in Guangzhou China in October of 1990. How this all transpired comes down to the plot of one man.

Flight 815 crashed short of the runway here in poor weather. The circumstances surrounding the plane, its pilots and the airport itself are worth examining to uncover how this crash killed so many people.

That was the question posed to investigators looking into the crash of Eastern Air Lines Flight 401. The aircraft in question was brand new, introduced to the airline market that same year. For 1972, the technology on board was well ahead of its time. The answers surrounding the cause of the disaster were found not to be with the plane. So what did investigators find when they opened up the plane’s black box. What caused this deadly crash in the Florida Everglades?

There are typically two recorders that are of note. The Cockpit Voice Recorder and the Flight Data recorder, both of which can reveal key information about an accident flight. In the case of Lauda Air Flight 4, the disaster rendered the Flight Data Recorder completely destroyed and any data unsalvageable. These boxes are built to withstand an immense amount of force and pressure as they are built to withstand the forces of a plane crash. What the loss of the Flight Data Recorder tells us about the Lauda crash was that whatever happened here was very violent. Lauda Air Flight 4 seemed to disappear into the night on May 26th, 1991, over Thailand. We’re going to breakdown the timeline of events which lead to disaster and uncover the mystery that took the lives of over 200 people that night.

Nestled away in the North of the country, Milan is served by two primary airports which bare the city’s name. The larger Malpensa airport, and the smaller airport located closer to the city itself, Linate. On October 8th, 2001, this airport would become the scene of a devastating accident which claimed the lives of 118 people. This video is about that accident. It’s a tale of how two planes collided on the runway at this airport. It involves many aspects like many disasters.

The failure of any one of them could result in outcomes ranging from negligible and un-noticeable, all the way up catastrophic meaning certain fatal injury. When Air Moorea Fight 1121 left for a very short flight in French Polynesia, its occupants certainly couldn’t have been prepared for what would happen to their plane just moments into the flight.

We’ll come clean right off the bat and say that discussion of this incident involves an unsettling case of a pilot intentionally wanting to crash their plane. Such cases are extremely rare, and they can occur for varying reasons. We have touched up on the sensitive subject of pilot murder-suicide in the past but today we’re going to examine a case out of Japan. And what makes this case so intriguing is that the pilot in question survived, giving us a look into the mind of such a person. In this video we’ll look at the pilot involved and what may have lead someone to committing to such actions.

With its four engines and distinctive upper deck, the plane could fly several thousands of kilometers on a single load of fuel and carry over 350 passengers, depending on the seating arrangement. The plane was incredibly popular with airlines and the general flying public alike, national flag carrier airlines from all over the world wanted one of these planes in their fleets. Despite its admiration though, the 747 would have many fatal accidents over its years of service. In this video we’re going to examine the first of these disasters. Lufthansa Flight 540.

Over the last 30 years these low budget operators have sprang up in all regions of the world. Offering low fares and a basic A to B service. In the 2000s decade, massive low cost expansion in Southeast Asia gave rise to many airlines based out Indonesia. One such operator was Adam Air. For a time in the mid to late 2000s, one could easily argue that Adam Air was not only one of the worst airlines in Indonesia but possibly one of the most unsafe in the entire world. Three hull losses and multiple other incidents occurred over a two year period between 2006 and 2008. The deadliest of which transpired on New Years Day of 2007. The Disaster of Adam Air Flight 574 certainly highlighted Indonesia’s poor aviation safety record. The story is just as much about the airline marred in controversy, corruption and nepotism as it is about the disaster itself.

With their hub in Dubai in the Middle East, the airline can reach every corner of the world making Dubai the ideal stopover for many travellers propelling Emirates to a global leader in passenger air travel. Despite their reputation however, they have had one fatal accident. And this of course depends how you want to define such statistic. But on August 3rd, 2016, an Emirates Boeing 777 crashed at Dubai and so far, has been the only recorded hull loss of an Emirates plane.

When an accident occurs it is likely to expose a weakness in how air travel is operated. Whether it be in the area of maintenance, pilot training, understanding the weather or as is partly in the case of what we’re going to be discussing today, Airline structure. The disaster of Colgan Air Flight 3407 occurred exactly 13 years ago to the day as this video is published. It is one of the more notable fatal air incidents to occur in the last twenty years. The pilots appeared to lose control of their plane during approach into Buffalo New York. We’ll discuss the flight, how things went wrong and what the investigation concluded were the causal factors.

The 1983 disaster of Avianca Flight 11 is one of the deadliest to involve a Boeing 747. The photographed wreckage of the plane showed a devastating scene with barely anything resembling an airplane. The accident raised a lot of questions as the 747 was the most iconic plane in the skies and this particular plane was being flown by some of the Airline’s best pilots. Unfortunately the subsequent investigation would later find a causal factor for the disaster to be in the actions of the flight crew in the flight’s final moments. So what happened here that lead to such devastation?

Controllers whether they are located at an airport or remotely have a real time live Birds eye view of their airspace. Airspace as you might expect is packed with planes of all sizes surrounding larger airports. Assuming that airspace is arranged appropriately, and that Controllers and pilots are fully aware and follow the rules, there is nothing unsafe here. The prospect of a midair collision can be extremely terrifying especially for those already predisposed with a fear of flying. To overcome these fears, education is always an interesting jumping off point. Once one gains a greater understanding of something that can appear intimidating, especially if that something gives off the aura of being gatekept behind years of study and experience, they may be far more inclined to face that fear. I say that because aviation is complex, it can be a lot to take in. So for this video I’d like to take a moment to look deeper at a lesser known midair collision. That of which occurred in the skies above Salk Late City, Utah in 1987. We’ll learn about the itineraries of the planes involved, the events which transpired for these two planes to end up at the same point in the sky at the same time, and how technologies have developed to help prevent such tragedies from happening again.

It’s rare for a fatal air accident to occur in the first place but a disappearance of a plane can be very much shrouded in mystery. Without a plane or its wreckage to examine and extract data from, it can be unclear how events unfolded on flights that fall into this category. We’re going to look into one of those incidents today, that of a plane taking a repositioning flight that went missing in September of 1990 leading to the presumed deaths of 16 people. When we look at this incident it is always important to remember that the wreckage of the plane has never been found, we don’t know exactly what happened. Everything I am about to present to you should be treated with as much caution as any form of speculation.

The term “Hijacking” itself in an aviation context can conjure images of terrorist activity. On March 8th, 1988, one of the most shocking and bizarre cases of an airplane hijacking took place in the Soviet Union. A group of hijackers boarded a plane concealing firearms and explosives in their luggage. Such a blatant breach of security in hiding weapons in such an obvious place is a lesson that should have been learnt decades before this incident occurred. What makes the case of Aeroflot 3739 so shocking is just who carried out this attack and when you think of this level of terrorist activity, it really turned out to be the last people you’d ever expect. So what happened that day, who were the hijackers and just what was their story?

The tragedy of Iran Air Flight 655 is one of the deadliest air disasters to have ever occurred. Was this a case of mistaken identity? If so, how was it mistaken. Was it a demonstration of pure negligence with devastating consequences or both. In this video we’ll look at this flight, where it was going, the context of the environment it was flying in, the Warship and the actions of those on said ship.

What makes the case of Air Niugini Flight 73 stand out among others is the sheer amount of video footage that’s available. The accident went viral in 2018 as videos surfaced of the plane submerged in water, including footing inside the plane. There even exists video from inside the cockpit in the plane’s final seconds. Despite the plane being relatively intact in this now viral footage, it was a fatal accident and what we’re here to discuss today is not the spectacle of the submerged plane but rather how it got there in the first place. In this video we’ll examine the approach process of the flight from its initial descent to its final moments before plunging into the water.

In fact airplanes are built with the assumption that they will be struck by lightning at least once over their lifetime. Statistically given the number planes that there are, lightning strikes involving aircraft are basically a daily occurrence somewhere in the world. Lightning to modern aircraft is so inconsequential that even in a case of a major incident which involved a Lightning Strike on a passenger plane in 2014, it had less to do with the actual Lightning and more to do with how it affected those inside the plane or more specifically the pilots. The incident of Loganair Flight 6780 is more about the Human and Psychological factors as it is about the environmental ones. And what is striking is the fact the plane did not crash and the reason as to why is really something.

The Story of British European Airways Flight 411 will be at time of recording the earliest incident in aviation history we have covered on the channel. It’s a Disaster which is one of the deadliest Disasters to occur in the British City of Manchester. According to local sources, many people including locals, do not have any knowledge of the event. Occurring in 1957, air accidents were on average more common relative to the amount of flights performed on a daily basis today. Sources are limited but we can delve into the history of the flight, the aircraft and what happened during the accident. At a quick glance of research we know something fell off the plane.

In where the flight crew of a plane inadvertently flew off course into restricted airspace and was shot down. In this video we should take a closer look at another instance of a navigational error. An error which is to put it simply, baffling. Two pilots, flying a Boeing 737 in Northern Brazil, were to perform a short regional route which was the final of a long journey across the country. Varig Flight 254 seemed to vanish without a trace. Judging by the plane’s route that evening, search, and rescue teams could not seem to find the plane for days. It was as if the plane simply vanished. Where the plane was actually located compared to where it should have been brought a lot more questions than answers and the reasoning as to how this happened is truly baffling. For days the plane was lost, the incident of Varig 254 not only demonstrates a navigational error with fatal consequences but also a demonstration of human survival.

Such events are unfortunately not relegated to the confines of aviation history because as recently as 2020, civilian planes have been shot down in either acts of aggression or by pure accident. Perhaps one of the more peculiar instances of a shootdown event came in 1978. A passenger plane belonging to Korean Airlines was intercepted and fired upon by the Soviet Union. Flying as flight 902, the Boeing 707 left Paris for a long flight to Seoul with 109 occupants on board. Their route that day should have kept them well away from the Soviet Union but still the USSR saw it was necessary to intervene, but why? This incident is not to be confused with Korean Airlines flight 007 which was also shot down by the Soviet Union in 1983 killing 269 people. Korean Airlines Flight 902 was an incident which not only demonstrated a major navigational error but also demonstrated a quirk of not the plane but the planet as a whole.

Hong Kong’s old Kai Tak airport is iconic among aviation enthusiasts but was eventually closed due to rampant noise and air pollution and the large amount of land which it occupied right in the center of town. What made this airport so unique was the very interesting approach path that aircraft would take for landing on Runway 13. Planes were guided towards a large hill and with just a few hundred feet of altitude would make a large banking turn over a densely populated area just seconds before touching down. You see, planes couldn’t make a straight in approach due to terrain limitations and there was not a whole lot of flat space to put an airport here as it was already built on partially reclaimed land. That steep turn on short final was made over the densely populated area of Kowloon. Hong Kong in the latter half of the 20th century became an economic powerhouse making Kai Tak one of the busiest airports in the world, in fact it once held the accolades of being the busiest airport in the world for Cargo Transportation and the Busiest Airport in the world with the use of a single runway. The large iconic planes of the 20th century, 747s, Dc10s, L1011s and Concordes were commonplace at the airport, and all made that same approach. As you would expect, the infamous IGS13 approach was a challenging one, it was one that pilots had to have specific training to perform. This led to some complications but despite this, no fatal accidents ever occurred in relation to this approach at Kai Tak. Though one plane crashed in 1988 on the reciprocal runway, no crash had occurred on the unconventional approach. Except, one time. On the 4th of November 1993, a China Airlines Boeing 747 crashed at Kai Tak. In this video we will break down the timeline of events which lead to this incident and take a closer look at the airport and its infamous approach flight path.

A Passenger plane leaves the runway at the local airport for a short flight to Zurich. Just moments after leaving the ground the pilots suddenly find they have little control of their plane where it soon crashes moments later. The plane was operated by Palair, a small air carrier which served as the national flag carrier for what is now known today as North Macedonia. The crash of Palair Macedonian Airlines Flight 301 was the first major incident to involve the Dutch built Fokker 100, a sleek short haul jet which was state-of-the-art at the time. So how does a modern plane crash just moments after leaving the runway?

The degree to which Pilot Error contributes to an accident can vary. Sometimes, pilot error can blossom in the form of sheer incompetence from the pilot as was with one such pilot flying a Swiss regional jet on its final Approach into Zurich. Crossair Flight 3597 crashed a few miles short of the runway at Zurich killing 24 people. How did the pilot flying handle the approach? And what sort of history did this pilot have?

Occasionally there comes across an incident in aviation which has less to so with the airplane and more to do with the airport where the accident occurred. In 1990 a small Norwegian plane crashed less than two minutes after take-off from a small regional airport killing all on board. The incident was not isolated as the airport had seen another incident which nearly resulted in a crash the previous year. The airport in question was considered to be an extremely challenging airport to pilots and thus was closed in 1990 following this accident. Since the crash of Wideroe flight 839 commercial flights have ceased from this airport. So what happened? Why was this airport so dangerous? (For lack of a better term) And how did it affect the plane?

A passenger plane seemed to dissapeared into the night without a trace. Aeroflot flight 593 crashed on a routine flight between Moscow and Hong Kong killing 75 people. Extracted data showed the plane plunging up and down several thousands of feet before stalling into the ground. However it was what was on the Cockpit Voice Recorder which not only piqued the interest of investigators but many people across the world. A quick search for Aeroflot flight 593 on Wikipedia leads the incident to be filed under “Untrained minor in command of controls”. A child was at the controls of a passenger plane. How? In this video we will examine and analyze the events of that night, the actions of the flight crew and the systems of the aircraft involved.

The structural integrity of planes needs to be strong in order for the many different parts of a plane to be held together and withstand the forces of flight. One shocking incident in October of 1992 demonstrates of the disastrous consequences of when parts of a plane can simply break away. El Al Flight 1862 crashed into residential estate in Amsterdam killing at least 43 people. This disaster is just as much about the community it devastated as much as it is about what caused it. In this video we’ll examine the plane and what exactly happened during its final flight.
