I just watched this while on an Airbus A330 from Paris to Atlanta 😅

What’s the use of a copilot if he fails when most needed.

A design so old that grandkids of original crews now fly them. Modern Engines, electronics , Salvage parts likely keep them in service a full century. Now-a-days when B52 shows up in anger, it means all offending air defense is Neutralized and remaining assets are about to be pulverized .

As a commercial pilot since 1970 this makes no sense. If they were confused about the assigned altitude a simple 10 second call to ATC would have cleared up the confusion. Also a 1500 feet altitude assignment for this type of aircraft over a crowded city is not reasonable. I would like to know the actual weather conditions. I’m thinking they must have been in IMC and the ground was not visible.

I had the privilege controlling a Harvard T6 above beautiful cornfields above France once. Did a roll right and a roll left and you can't imagine what the G-force does to your stomach (and I have a strong one!)... if I watch Richards roll in this video I can only imagine how it felt horrible and great at the same time. It's a special kind of feeling to know every action you do can kill you. After my pilot landed, thanks Fred, I had the greatest smile on my face for at least a week. RIP Sky King, I know you went out with the biggest smile possible.

My cousin and her husband were supposed to be on this flight. They rescheduled to the next day just 2 hours before the flight bc of a family emergency.

seems to me most of these catastrophic issues cld be solved ahead of time by a trained and talented engineer

sickest story ive heard in a while. legendary rip bro

If the pilots suspect they had a blown tires, they can’t reject takeoff, but they should have kept the landing gear extended at all times and circle to prepare for the emergency return to Jeddah maybe the plane would not have lost control and everyone would have evacuated the plane alive after the plane comes to a complete stop on the runway.

surprised your still big in the december of 2024 keep going luv the content man!!

Dr. Iverstein was on this flight with his wife. He was my major professor for my MBA program. He was a great teacher.

I wonder did they know they were going to crash or did it just happen. It would have been a blessing if they didn't know, still a crazy tragedy

What a flimsy plane the second one turned out to be! At least if the video accurately showed the size of the Dutch rolls. Most planes can bank far higher than that without the tail disintegrating 😮. Even the first accident was scary and the crew can’t have had long to act. I wonder they didn’t think stabiliser and cut off the electric trim then trim manually? I love these military mishaps. Those grey planes look so foreboding! You have great music accompanying the video.

I know it probably all comes down to $, but I'm kinda surprised they haven't made any significant advancements that I know of in runway navigation. Small signs & arrows for all of these intersecting runways just seem so outdated & freaking confusing as hell. You're at the mercy of the controller.

However, one of my mom‘s friend Was on the flight at the same day and died

So sad. Those incredible pilots landed that plane that was on fire and after landing, tragedy struck. May the victims rest in peace. ❤❤

also flaps were at 35 not 50 many mistakes by crew...

American controllers going on their power trips is a threat to aviation. You don't see this in any other country nearly as much as in the US.

Wrong Livery Please check Copa Airlines flight 201 in Wikipedia and find the correct livery.

BIMBOS BACK TO BEDROOMS = "If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time" = Tyrone Davis soul hit, 69 (nuff said). It s a man s man s world ...

Im honestly not surprised at all a crash this stupid happened in colombia. colombia is suuuuuuper corrupt. all these measures were ignored for faster profit

A missile hit Flt. 800. An explosion in a fuel tank has never happened in Jet History, we are supposed to believe it happened this one time ? They needed this excuse to explain away the missile explosion ,that the pilot witnessed in plain sight and reported seconds after the blow-up.

Airplane ✈️🛫

But what is this thing after PIA 8303 scrapped the runway?

I don’t get how the plane going down the runway had many casualties…. It looked as if it barely took damage and was just a rough landing… I swear some ppl are just made of glass and plastic

Dumbest idea ever was wiring through the tank.

Hallo what addon is this a380?

everyone couldve been saved. its a miracle comparing this to the hudson river accident

I’ve been to that airport IRL

Wrong livery ... But true story...

RIP SKY KING

This is terrifying i feel sad for the passengers 😢

I remember this as a kid being all over the news but I never knew what the cause was until now. As terrible as it was, this event continues to be a landmark moment that has and will continue to save millions of lives everyday through the improvements made by engineers. I’m sorry for all involved. Life’s not fair sometimes and this is why it’s important to smile at each other everyday. Blessings to all❤

This is the creepiest Boeing 747 crash in the history!

I like your videos but narration audio would be very nice!

very sad situation

When ever you watched Air Crash Investigation and saw a DC-10 you felt sorry for the crew and passengers as it seemed there was always one having an incident at some point in time

Was this the flight they claim might have been shot down?

The details are everything.

ICAO's advice came too late, as the Überlingen mid-air collision had already occurred...

If there is a person out there that NEEDS to learn something from this review, this film. If that is your need then do not step into the flight deck of an aircraft.

I'm not drinking the coolaid offered. There has to be more to these instances than what has been presented. All the same, my condolences to the flight crews and their families

One thing this channel has taught me is to never board a flight that departs or arrives at Chicago o’hare airport

Act of Terrorism? or because he was a young white guy?, it's "he was having a bad day".

If the accident was determined to be caused by icing then how did drug impaired pilots appear in the title of the video?

I just can’t watch videos like this, so many people, and it’s heartbreaking

If proper safety regulations had been put in place then 911 may not have happened.

it was neither immediately after takeoff nor over New York……get your titles right stupid clickbaiters

Can you make the video of Disaster in Tokyo? (JAL Flight 516)
