ProFlight Zambia flight 705, was on a routine domestic passenger flight within Zambia. As they were nearing their destination the crew opting to fly a visual approach to Kenneth Kaunda int airport. What first appeared to be routine turned into a nightmare for the crew and passengers as the pilots looked to take a shortcut but this led to disaster. The aircraft was thrown into darkness, struck by lighting and forced to descend at a rapid rate, this video will show you how this occurred and what happened next...

Thank you, most people interested by these investigations have seen the 'main' ones reanimated and explained many times. I think it's important to find lesser known incidents as there is still so much that can be learnt, it also provides fresh information for people to see. The aviation industry is very good at using mistakes and accidents to grow and develop, including ones from all over the world.

Honestly had a dinner guest once say that the world could learn from aviation in Africa because "planes don't ever crash there" and I ............ Yeah, they do. Aviation worldwide has become safer, but plane crashes do happen in Africa. It's just they barely get a mention in the global media, especially if the accident aircraft were domestic flights, regardless of casualties.

I intended to say the same thing the OP did - that I love how you find incidents that I haven’t seen anywhere else and don’t know how the story is going to end. Hopefully the Captain in particular, will have learnt something by the time he becomes truly experienced ie 10k+ hours 🙁. Because that was not a show of excellence by any description. The pilots made the kind of mistakes I keep hearing have caused GA fatal accidents.

Thanks a lot for covering this! I'm a Zambian pilot and didn't even know this final report was issued and made public! I'm also surprised anyone outside of Southern Africa has even heard of this incident. Most of the info I had before was just from word of mouth and what i could parse from looking at the aircraft. The poor bird was pretty much scraped for parts and was just the fuselage, wings, and tail on a stand (the landing gear was removed) the last time I saw it. I don't work for Proflight, so my info outside this report isn't the most reliable, but I'll say this was an excellent presentation of the events. Please don't view PO or flying in Zambia as unsafe. This is one of the few incidents I've ever heard about and pretty much the only one that's gotten mainstream attention.

Very interesting! And also great to see how incredible airplanes are, that they can withstand such damage and still land safely. I also generally love longer videos (like 20+ minutes), but I realize that you're still growing and may not have the resources for that yet. I love seeing your channel grow. I am not sure where you live, but in the EU it's mandatory (or maybe that's just Germany, I don't know) that you put a tiny text saying "advertisement" somewhere on the screen while the sponsor is being advertised. Just somewhere in the corner, and it can be really small. Though I don't think anyone could hold you accountable since you can't be expected to adhere to every law worldwide. I like the progress bar during the sponsorship! :) and the "pause" animation before it ^^ Had to giggle when you debated the pronunciation of "aluminium" :D You're doing so well and I really look forward to all your future videos!

Thank you as always. I am currently in the UK and the progress bar is there because you mentioned it in the past! I thought it was a great idea. You’re right about the length of videos, sometimes it’s the amount of information on an incident that holds back the time but also it’s the amount of time they take to make! It’s interesting, because of the nature of the videos it’s difficult to inject my own personality into the videos especially for the more serious incidents. Sponsor messages are probably the only place that I can have a bit more freedom.

I am (genuinely) not sure how difficult or time-consuming it is to put timestamps on the video, but that could be a next step. Although that would also make it somewhat necessary to divide the video into chapters, which I'm not sure is something you wanna do. Plus it'd make it easier for people to skip the sponsorship part of the video, which (I guess) isn't something that you'd want. Well, that's the only unsolicited idea I have right now :P Hope you're having a fantastic day as well!

There really is no excuse for the crew’s actions since they had avoided en-route weather, indicating that the radar was serviceable and this magnitude storm would have been clearly visible on the weather radar. It is a testament to the robustness of the Dash 8 that it continued and landed safely.

As a retired airline pilot, I am extremely concerned with the commercial pressure placed on pilots these days. Added pressure is the restrictive fuel calculated to the last kg by a computer program....although legal, it is very restrictive in terms of avoiding weather. Gone are the days when the captain was in control...nowadays the captain is a bean-counter sitting in a office at HQ.

@@chipsawdust5816 Yes, the restrictive fuel does not save money in the long term. One diversion cost millions. Much better to just hold for a while, shoot a few approaches or divert a few miles to avoid cb's. Our airline have annually at least one aircraft out of service for months, damaged by hail or turbulence. All could be avoided if they had fuel. ICAO has to change regulations.

Enjoyed the video. It would be good if you could do a report on British European Airways Flight 548. I have studied the AAIB report and it is full of assumptions and blames the Captain (Captain Key) without considering other possibilities such as there was an additional pilot in the jump seat, that had access to the stick pusher over ride lever and an aerosol that would be used by that pilot was found in the footwell was that discharged? ( No one thought Germanwings Flight 9525 could happen but it did) . The AAIB report was influenced by the Board of Trade and Captain Key was scapegoated.

Don't know if they could see the CB on the radar at that time. Emergency decent when being visual seems reasonably to me. CB cloud was reported 3500 Ft but what what the elevation at the airport, and what was there altitude ? Any thought on this ?

But had the crew deviated from the flight plan and brought the plane in late but undamaged they'd have got a bollocking. Classic case of shit or bust.

I realize the flight computer is essential to modern day pilots, does most of the difficult work for the pilots. However when real problems arise and the computer is not receiving information it needs, well it says “you’re on your own buddy I’m out of here”

Radar?? If it doesn't work or you don't have it, fly low. Old school. When below the cloud bases of thunderstorms, which are usually well above 5000' agl, you can SEE most of the precipitation and easily avoid it (along with it's accompanying turbulence). Even at night! Lightning will illuminate the rain shafts.Turboprops don't suffer a huge hit in fuel mileage doing this. If you're caught in severe turbulence, disconnect the altitude hold and maintain pitch. Avoid storms at all costs. These people were extremely lucky.

Good video. I enjoy your channel. I respectfully disagree with your comment about the resilience of the accident aircraft. Based upon the photographs, I suspect the pilots were fortunate (lucky) that the propellors and windscreens remained intact. Additional damage to the control surfaces, or an imbalance in one of the propellors, might have rendered the aircraft uncontrollable. What disturbs me most is the pilots' baffling decision not to report the hail storm and intense CB activity to air traffic control. That decision placed other aircraft at risk. I sincerely hope that these pilots are no longer allowed to fly passenger aircraft, given their cavalier attitude towards safety.

That will teach the pilots a lesson they will never forget. Ive flown with such captains. Normally lack of knowledge, lack of appreciation and cowboy attitude. Refresher training is not enogh... company cockpit crew culture need to change, and these pilots needs to be grounded for minimum 6 months... let them be a lesson to other in their company. Today im flying for anothet company... most capts here are very professional... that seriously let me realise how important is company culture.

I wonder if the insurers balked at paying for the aircraft due to the pressure brought to bear on the pilots to take this dangerous approach. Many times, especially with smaller airlines, the aircraft is leased by the airline from an investment group that actually owns the aircraft. I suspect that it's the airline that's required to insure, but in the only case I personally know of the leasing co. received insurance payment and then the insurance company sued the airline under subrogation. Comments?
