Suddenly, the plane begins to drop. But this is no normal turbulence. The plane has started to fall out of the sky. The confused pilots desperately try to understand what is happening their aircraft, as it screams down through the dark clouds, falling at over 12,000 feet per minute. The pilots have just seconds to save the aircraft, before they and their 158 passengers and crew, come slamming down into the forest below. What you’re about to see is a story of negligence, corruption, and basic human error.

The plane is way too fast, and too high, but the pilots are in denial, and they decide to press on.

But as he does so, his instruments begin to tell him something that he simply doesn’t believe. What happens next, is an incredible story of confusion and panic, and more than that, it’s a story about what happens when two very different personalities clash in the cockpit.

It requires highly trained pilots working together to get hundreds of tonnes of metal and people safely into the air. The margin for error is small, and when mistakes do happen, they can be catastrophic. When things go well, this complexity looks like clockwork – each of the components interlinking seamlessly, and ticking away the flight. The story of Korean Air flight 8509 is a dark and complex one. Its cogs and wheels are psychological, technological, and even cultural. When the clockwork of this flight burst open just seconds after takeoff on December 22nd 1999, it revealed deep rooted problems in the aviation industry - problems which would need to be reckoned with, fast.

🟢 Want to watch the full video without ads? https://www.patreon.com/GreenDotAviation Get in touch with me here 🙌 https://discord.gg/w7bZWQARJv https://www.instagram.com/greendot_aviation/ https://twitter.com/Green_Dot_Av ---- This video presents a version of the most likely scenario which took place on board MH370. It is not definitive, and experts who agree with the main thrust of this video, will disagree on specifics. I have made a sincere effort to stick to the facts where they are available. Where they are not, I have restricted myself to informed and reasonable speculation. As stated in the video, this starts at 9:55. I welcome any discussion in the comments. ——- How could a massive aircraft filled with 239 people simply vanish from the face of the Earth? It might seem impossible in the modern era, but this is exactly what happened Malaysia Airlines flight 370 on March 8th, 2014. There are countless theories which try to explain the mysterious disappearance - everything from a remote control hijacking, to exploding fruit in the cargo bay, have been suggested. But what if the truth is even more disturbing? What if somebody on board Flight 370 was responsible? This is the chilling story of Malaysia Airlines flight 370, and it’s a story that might finally help us find the missing plane. ----- This video would not have been possible without the expertise and generosity of the following people: Simon Hardy, for sharing his knowledge as a 777 Captain, and for his technique for plotting a plausible path for MH370 over the Southern Indian Ocean. If you want to read a fictionalised account of Captain Simon Hardy’s own experiences in the aftermath of the disappearance, you can do so in the book ‘The Missing Plane’ by Captain Verne Pugiev: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Missing-Plane-Chilling-Real-Life-Malaysia/dp/1739259505 Larry Vance, for taking the time to speak with me during my research for this video. I have not come to the same conclusion as Larry regarding the final minutes of the flight, but his book is well-argued and has been instructive nonetheless: https://www.amazon.co.uk/MH370-Mystery-Solved-Larry-Vance/dp/1775283429 I will be releasing my full interview with Larry on Patreon in the coming days. Thomas Joiner, for his Psychological expertise and insight into the mentality of those who commit acts such as this. Thomas has spent his career delving into the darker parts of the human psyche both as an academic researcher and a clinician, and the insights he shared in our interview were extremely helpful in my writing the script for this video. My interview with Thomas will be on Patreon in the coming days. Hans Bos, for his invaluable insight into normal and abnormal airline operations. Without him, the story presented would have been far less informed. Victor Iannello of the Independent Group, for sharing with me his considerable expertise on the matter. See Victor’s blog here for some excellent technical discussion about MH370: https://mh370.radiantphysics.com/ There are many people with whom I have not interacted directly, yet without whose work, this documentary would not have been possible. I, and anybody who is interested in finding this aircraft, owe them a debt of gratitude for their work in furthering the search efforts. Ian Holland, Richard Godfrey, Duncan Steel, and Blaine Gibson, are some of these names, but the list is much longer. ----- Sources: https://mh370.radiantphysics.com MH370 Safety Investigation Report: https://reports.aviation-safety.net/2014/20140308-0_B772_9M-MRO.pdf B777 FCOM / checklist non-normal: http://www.ameacademy.com/pdf/boeing/Boeing-777-FCOM.pdf Analyses of Zaharie's simulator data: https://s3.amazonaws.com/rootclaim-media/2016-11-29+Further+Analysis+of+Simulator+Data.pdf https://www.dropbox.com/s/07kwlf9znxmjn6x/2016-08-14%20Prelim%20Assessment%20of%20IG%20on%20Simulator%20Data.pdf?dl=0 BFO analysis paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1702.02432.pdf RMP Report: https://41818.org/docs/rmp/folder1.pdf All music licensed through Musicbed Stock footage from MotionArray and Storyblocks ---- Timestamps: 00:00 The Mystery 00:45 Flight Background 01:43 The Pilots 03:42 Pushback and Taxi 05:08 Takeoff and climbout 07:56 Cruise 09:59 Step 1: The Vanishing 16:47 The passenger problem 19:08 The Diversion 23:45 First Officer’s return 28:53 Hypoxia 30:03 Ho Chi Minh Notices 35:52 The next step 37:15 Phone connection 38:53 Malaysia Airlines notices 41:15 A problem for Zaharie 44:16 Home free 46:42 Fatal Flaw - The SDU Arcs 50:20 A Call from the ground 52:44 The Final Turn 56:21 The Simulator 58:56 The Journey South 1:03:52 A Final Surprise 1:08:23 The Enduring Mystery: Why?

Ronald Reagan is US president, Michael Jackson’s Thriller is at the top of the charts, and Pacman is all the rage. The threat of nuclear war looms large, and every political football risks being used as a reason to whip out the nuclear football. This almost comic juxtaposition of pop, and politics formed the backdrop against which Korean Airlines flight 7 took to the skies above New York on August 31st. On this night, in an atmosphere thick with cold war tension, an incredible series of events would unfold out over the Pacific Ocean, which would bring the world to the brink of war. This is the incredible story of Korean Airlines flight 7. ---- Big thanks to David for his knowledge and input on B747 systems, and historical aviation context for the video.

747 in DANGER | The MYSTERY of the world's WORST mid-air collision

🟢 Support the channel on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/GreenDotAviation 🌏 Say Hi on Discord! https://discord.gg/6tafjstBzK ---- November, 1996 Two planes carrying 349 people speed towards each other in the evening skies above Delhi. In one of those planes, five pilots sit at the controls, making preparations to land. In the other, three pilots are climbing along their departure route. An air traffic controller sits at the top of a tower, watching two blips on his screen draw closer together. What do these things have in common? The people immediately in charge of the outcome, those sitting in the pointy ends of these structures, also sit at the pointy end of a vast and complex infrastructure which undergirds their actions. Aerospace technology, air law, aircraft design philosophy, and political and historical contingencies. All of these systems and infrastructures make up the foundations for the pyramid of aviation safety, on top of which pilots, and air traffic controllers sit. What you’re about to see, is the shocking story of what happens when the foundations of this pyramid, are rotten. This is the story of the 1996 Charkhi Dadri Mid-air collision. ---- This video was created with reference to publicly available sources: https://www.baaa-acro.com/sites/default/files/2020-12/HZ-AIH.pdf

This plane RAN OUT of FUEL in the middle of the OCEAN!!

🟢 Support the channel on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/GreenDotAviation Join the conversation on Discord! https://discord.gg/6tafjstBzK ---- In the dead of the night, halfway over the Atlantic ocean, an Airbus A330 carrying 306 passengers and crew suddenly runs out of fuel. The lights go out, the oxygen masks drop, and the noise of the engines is replaced with an eerie silence. In pitch darkness, the giant aircraft begins drifting down towards the ocean below. The pilots are stunned, and begin trying to glide the aircraft as far as possible. The flight attendants prepare the passengers for an emergency ditching in the ocean - something which is likely be a death sentence for all on board. This is a living nightmare, but incredibly - it never had to happen in the first place. Many accounts of this incident focus on its technical aspects, but that is only half of the story. The truth is that at bottom, this is a fascinating story about human psychology. It’s a story about how people make decisions under pressure, when faced with ambiguous information. This is the story of Air Transat flight 236. ---- All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Final report: https://www.fss.aero/accident-reports/dvdfiles/PT/2001-08-24-PT.pdf Map tiles by a href="http://stamen.com"Stamen Design/a, under a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0"CC BY 3.0/a.

The airport is being battered by thunderstorms, and just ahead of the plane, another 747 has aborted its approach at the last minute. The 391 passengers and 19 crew are eager to get down on the ground. On this dark September night, however, as the plane nears the runway, things start to go wrong fast. What follows is not a story about mechanical failure, nor is it even a story about the weather, really. The story of Qantas flight 1 is a human story - a story about how quickly things can go wrong, once a few very human mistakes are made. It’s also a story about how even following the rules can sometimes put lives in danger. ---- All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Final report: http://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/1999/AAIR/pdf/aair199904538_001.pdf Thumbnail pic: Aero Icarus from Zürich, Switzerland, CC BY-SA 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0, via Wikimedia Commons And href="https://www.freepik.com/free-photo/mesmerizing-scene-lightning-during-thunderstorm-night_29174899.htm#query=rain%20storm&position=16&from_view=keyword%22%3EImage by wirestock ---- Timeline: 00:00 Intro 00:57 Flight background 01:27 Pilots 02:44 War Thunder 03:41 Pushback 04:19 Departure 05:25 Cruise 06:06 Descent 09:52 Weather 11:48 Approach 12:42 ILS Approach 14:22 Speed control 14:58 Final approach 15:47 Landing 18:52 Runway overrun 19:45 Aftermath and Investigation 20:16 Training issues 21: 20 Crew resource management 22:18 Present day Qantas 22:37 (Reputational) Damage 22:59 War Thunder 23:30 Thanks!

The aircraft they were flying on, a state-of-the-art Airbus A380, would go on to suffer a catastrophic uncontained engine failure shortly after takeoff. Almost 500 lives hung in the balance as the five pilots in the cockpit did everything they could to save the crippled aircraft. This incident is the most serious to happen to an A380 to date, and the crew’s handling of it has been highlighted by aviation experts as being one of the finest examples of airmanship in the history of aviation. This short documentary uses publicly available information to examine this incident, and the reasons for its occurrence. ---- Pictures from final report: https://web.archive.org/web/20130920230451/http://www.atsb.gov.au/media/4173625/ao-2010-089_final.pdf Interview with Check captain: https://www.aerosociety.com/news/exclusive-qantas-qf32-flight-from-the-cockpit/ All music licensed through Epidemic Sound -------

There has been a massive explosion on board a United Airlines Boeing 747, carrying over 350 passengers and crew. An enormous hole has opened up in the side of the aircraft, and the oxygen masks have dropped, but nobody - not even the pilots, can use them. The captain begins diving towards the ocean to get to a more breathable altitude, but his engines are catching fire, and he’s having trouble controlling the aircraft. In the cabin, nine passengers are missing. With more critical systems being lost by the minute, how will the crew be able to wrangle their jumbo jet back to the airport?

A Delta Airlines MD-88 is on final approach to Runway 13 at La Guardia international airport. The city is being battered by a snowstorm, and the pilots of this flight are cutting it close with their decision to land. Their aircraft is heavy, the runway is short, and when they break out of the clouds just seconds before landing, they discover that it’s covered with snow. There is now no margin for error. If the pilots make any mistakes, their aircraft could slide off the runway, and into the freezing waters of Flushing Bay. What neither pilot knows is that on this morning, a combination of bad weather and psychological factors would conspire with a unique feature of the MD-88s design, to make a safe landing all but impossible.... ------- Final report: https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/AccidentReports/Reports/AAR1602.pdf Pictures: Leonard J.

🟢 Support the work I do on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/GreenDotAviation Join the Discord! https://discord.gg/mFKTvgNMvP ---- On December 1st, 1981, a brand new McDonnell Douglas MD-82 carrying 173 tourists made its approach to Ajaccio airport on the French island of Corsica. This was the pilots’ first time flying into this airport, and they were unfamiliar with the area. As the aircraft descended into the clouds above the island, a series of misunderstandings began to take place between the pilots and air traffic control. Minute by minute, as the aircraft descended, these misunderstandings were compounded, and the shared mental pictures between the pilots and air traffic control began to diverge, with disastrous consequences. Flight 1308 sent shockwaves across the aviation industry, and raised serious questions about everything from the way pilots and air traffic controllers communicate, to the way that approach charts are designed. The story Inex-Adria flight 1308 shows that under certain conditions, a tiny misunderstanding can snowball into a full-blown catastrophe. ----------- All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Final Report: https://bea.aero/docspa/1981/yu-a811201/pdf/yu-a811201.pdf Inex-Adria Livery: https://flightsim.to/file/32425/mcdonnell-douglas-md-82-adria-airways-s5-abe Aircraft: FlyTheMaddog X (MSFS) Cloudberg: https://admiralcloudberg.medium.com/cleared-for-catastrophe-the-crash-of-inex-adria-aviapromet-flight-1308-217804776db0 Map tiles by Stamen Design, under CC BY 3.0.

In poor weather, and running low on fuel, the four pilots of the flight originating in New Delhi in India, had to make some crucial decisions. Should they attempt an unfamiliar type of approach into New York, or should they risk taking their electronically crippled aircraft to an airport further afield, where there was better weather, but where they might run critically low on fuel. The fate of all 357 people on board depended on weather the flight crew could successfully manage this complex set of failures for which they had never been trained. ----- This video was created with reference to publicly available sources, and with the help of qualified experts.

This was the first full loss of a 777 aircraft, which had been operating without serious issue since 1995. In a strange twist, the culprit in this accident seemed to vanish after the crash, leaving investigators puzzled. Speculation was rife after the accident, with some saying that a software glitch may have downed the aircraft, or that there may have been radio interference from the prime minister’s motorcade which was passing nearby at the time. In the end, they found that the cause was both far simpler, and far more pernicious. The story of this flight shows how a collection of circumstances which on their own are harmless, can combine to cause an accident. This is also a story of how experience, and quick-thinking, can be the difference between life and death. --- All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Interview with the Captain https://www.avweb.com/multimedia/podcast/the-crash-of-ba038/ Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Airways_Flight_38 Qatar airways picture: Konstantin von Wedelstaedt (GFDL 1.2 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.html or GFDL 1.2 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.html), via Wikimedia Commons Fire brigade picture: Aero Pixels from England, CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0, via Wikimedia Commons Other pictures from Final Report: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5422f3dbe5274a1314000495/1-2010_G-YMMM.pdf ATC Audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcGA3vRwzuE

This was the second close call at Emirates in less than a month, with the previous incident involving another 777 at Dubai, which nearly crashed into the Dubai suburb of Deira shortly after takeoff. If early reports are correct, the reason that the January 9th incident happened is shocking - one of the aircraft, Emirates flight 524, bound for Hyderabad in India, took off without permission. How could two qualified pilots have made such a basic mistake? This episode uses publicly available sources to investigate what may have happened in Dubai on January 9th this year. Disclaimer: This video is not a definitive account of what happened. More facts about this incident will emerge in the coming weeks and months. ---- Correction: The video states that the Cockpit Voice Recorder would have been overwritten as it runs on a 2 hour loop. A commenter has pointed out that while the CVR would indeed have been overwritten, the FDAU (Flight Data Acquisition Unit) also records the CVR/FDR data, and stores it for a couple of days. This data can be accessed through a simple download to a laptop when the aircraft lands. So the company does have everything that was said and done on that flight deck and in every flight that aircraft has done for the past couple of days. ---- All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Maps by MapTiler and OpenStreetMap contributors, GeoLayers 3.

Italy's WORST Air Crash | Collision on the Runway | Linate Airport Disaster

🟢 Join the Patreon to support the channel! 👉 https://www.patreon.com/GreenDotAviation ----- On October 8th, 2001, the worst air accident in Italian history occurred at Milan’s Linate airport in the North of Italy. What makes this crash particularly galling is how predictable and preventable it was. This accident was not a result of a series of unfortunate coincidences, or of a chance failure. Rather, it was the logical culmination of years of complacency, and a reckless attitude to safety by the Italian airport authorities. This episode investigates the causes behind this entirely predictable and preventable crash. Publicly available sources are used to piece together what took place. For a full account of the incident, read the Final Report, published in 2004. ----- Congratulations to Fabio Valentinuzzi for correctly guessing which incident this episode would cover in a recent community post. —— All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Final Report: https://reports.aviation-safety.net/2001/20011008-0_MD87_SE-DMA_C25A_D-IEVX.pdf Picture of Accident aircraft by Alexander Jonsson (GFDL 1.2 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.html or GFDL 1.2 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.html), via Wikimedia Commons Airport Map by Pikappa at Italian Wikipedia (original author of the Italian version)Attilios at en.wikipedia (translated into English), CC BY-SA 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/, via Wikimedia Commons ---- 00:00 Introduction 00:43 SAS flight details 01:53 Cessna Citation details 02:37 Linate's technology 03:28 Push and start, taxi 05:55 Takeoff 09:35 Aftermath and investigation 11:16 Illegal landing 11:55 A history or recklessness

TERRIFYING Close Call: Emirates 777 Nearly Crashes on Takeoff in Dubai

TERRIFYING Close Call: Emirates 777 Nearly Crashes on Takeoff in Dubai

3rd March, 2022: Update: The preliminary report for this incident has now been released. Here are some excerpts: The Commander stated that during cockpit preparation, she noticed that the altitude selector was set to 0000 feet and she selected it to 4,000 feet, which was also verified by the flight data recorder. The selection of 4,000 feet on the altitude selector was in accordance with the planned standard instrument departure (SID) of SENPA 2F1. The Commander stated that after lift-off, and during climb, she followed the flight director command. However, the Aircraft rate of climb reached to a maximum of approximately 800 feet per minute. The flight crew were not able to adhere to published climb gradient of the SID due to the shallow climb. In light of this, the following correction applies to the video: - The crew did in fact notice that the ALT window was set at 0000, and they fixed this. However, the hypothesis in the video that the pilot flying blindly followed the flight director was correct. Hopefully the final report will examine the underlying causes for these errors. ------------- 🟢 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GreenDotAviation 🌏 YouTube Membership: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfCNU6LWB66VR48V58d2KOg/join —————— Update 1: A number of commenters on this video who are 777 pilots, or who know 777 pilots, have said that it is more likely that the correct altitude HAD been set on the autopilot before takeoff, but that the flight directors had been turned on before this altitude was set, meaning that the autopilot was still in ‘Altitude Hold’ mode, at airport elevation. In other words, the Autopilot/Flight Directors thought that the pilots wanted it to fly at 0 feet, even though the pilots had set the correct altitude (4000 feet) on the autopilot panel. This is because the pilots had turned on the flight director BEFORE changing the altitude from 0ft to 4000ft, rather than after. This is a known quirk of the 777 autopilot, and it is possible that for whatever reason, the pilots were not aware of this on that night. If true, this still does not explain the behaviour of the aircraft on takeoff. Takeoffs are performed manually, and there is no known reason as of yet, that the pilots would lift off so late, or fly so low once they had lifted off. —————— How did an Emirates Boeing 777 carrying up to 354 people nearly crash just after takeoff from Dubai International Airport just before Christmas in 2021? Full details of the incident have yet to emerge, but early reports, as well as a NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) from Emirates, suggests that an over-dependence on automation by the pilots may be the culprit. This video uses publicly available sources as of 30th December 2021 to recreate what may have taken place. Disclaimer: This video is not a definitive account of what happened. More details will emerge in the coming weeks, which may show that events transpired differently. If this is the case, the video will be updated to reflect this new understanding of events. ————- All music licensed through Epidemic Sound Pictures: AF 447: Hansueli Krapf  This file was uploaded with Commonist., CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0, via Wikimedia Commons Asiana 214: NTSB, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons Emirates 521 Final Report: https://www.gcaa.gov.ae/en/ePublication/admin/iradmin/Lists/Incidents%20Investigation%20Reports/Attachments/125/2016-Published%20Final%20Report%20AIFN-0008-2016-UAE521%20on%206-Feb-2020.pdf Sources: https://avherald.com/h?article=4f24b2d7 https://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/644395-ek-231-20-december-dxb-iad-near-crash-5.html https://onemileatatime.com/news/emirates-terrifying-boeing-777-flight-washington/ 00:00 Intro 01:28 Takeoff 02:31 Immediate Aftermath 02:48 NOTAM 05:40 Automation Dependency 09:08 Looking forward
