Those are the worst. At least we can hope weather tech and more strict safety guidance will make sure something quite this bad will never happen again. It's not ideal, but it's the best possible result from such a horrible tragedy.

[@mikeblay]

My father was a Braniff captain flying the Electra at this same time, in fact he was flying from Dallas to Little Rock on that same afternoon. When we first heard the news of the crash, my mother was very upset because she was not sure which flight he was on. It was not until later in the evening that she received a phone call from him. This video was incredible because we never knew what really happened or that a cockpit voice recording even existed. My father passed away two years ago, we used to discuss the 2 Braniff Electra crashes, I only wish he could have heard this recording as he was a friend of the captain on that flight.

I've probably done that. He was about to die, and he might have known that too. That comment might have been intended for his wife so she wouldn't be burdened by knowledge of his mistake. We do things under stress. He was friends with Mike's dad. That's one person (who knew him personally) who didn't think he was a creep. Maybe he was a good guy who made some initially understandable misjudgements (remember the FO agreed with him, that west was best) and felt he was backed into a corner by the storm and now the controller. That's fight-or-flight mode, a normal, predictable response to stress overload. I don't know enough to judge the guy as a person like you do. WE don't know he was a creep. Some of us might have judged him that way, that's all. He was a fallible human, like the rest of us.

Just saw your reply. I heard a very interesting story about this flight, and it involved a professional golfer competing in the 1968 Houston Open. After shooting a 78 in the first round the day before this accident and figuring he was going to miss the 36-hole cut on Friday he booked a seat on this connecting plane for a trip home to Tacoma Washington. Being a true professional he went out the next day and tried his best and shot 69 to make the cut and cancel his seat. He was able to live another 49 years and credits his good fortune to "never" giving up. Did you know why your Spanish teacher missed his flight? Thanks for your comment.

Don't know if lightning hit the plane or not but lights went out and plane lost altitude momentary. Lights came back on shortly and plane made it to Columbia safely. After I got back to Richmond I "never" flew again.

[@MT-rg4zb]

To be honest I don’t really feel like the ATC did much to convince them. He said only once that other aircraft are deviating to the East, then approved them to go West. I wonder if he would have said again, “I think you should go East” would that have made a difference. To me it sounded like it really didn’t matter. Sure everyone else is going east but if you want to go west, no problem. Then he kind of stuck it to them later “well everyone else went east” trying to make them feel bad. Just overall not that helpful.

[@bubblebus1]

This came as a complete surprise. We were presented with a lost voice recording, detailed weather analysis combined with the state of weather radar at the time. This gave much more context to the accident report. A great piece of research, team effort and video presentation

[@rottenhead8385]

[@johnwatson3948]

As noted it was not recognized at the time that hail absorbs rather than reflects radar waves, causing the worst part of the storm to look like a safe path or “hole” on the planes radar screen. This was still happening a decade later with the crash of Southern Airways 242 where the crew was also using radar to navigate a storm.

Hail don't absorb radar waves, they are rather transparent to radar waves in comparison to water droplets. Ice has much lower dielectric constant than liquid water. The contrast between air and liquid water is much larger than between air and ice This must have been well known in 1968.

Excellent explanation of this terrible crash. One part of the recording that struck me was the captain's remark to the F/E, "Don't talk to him (ATC Wilson) too much. He's just trying to get us to admit that we made a big mistake ." Sounds like that captain had an ego problem. Very sad.

[@davidlindgren7605]

I agree. That was no time to hide mistakes. Rather it was a time to admit to any mistakes and do what you can to fix them.

[@warron24]

I don't really see it as the captain trying to hide anything. In fact he was, with that statement, admitting his mistake to the copilot. He may have been annoyed with the ATC, but that didn't really effect anything, since he was still willing to request a 180 degree turn from ATC moments later. (Which ironically was another mistake.)

[@Grunklowe]

I don't see it that way at all. He was facing certain death he wanted to focus on trying to do whatever he could to avoid it - he saw that conversation as a needless distraction and pouring salt in the wound at a time where he was literally wrestling the plane to try to not die. He went the wrong way not because of pride but because his data was flawed. He trusted his equipment.

[@RaiderLeo1]

The passenger announcement mention of the airline being on time 96% may also have reflected the captain's mindset.

[@gofigure8]

Captain likely thought it was less distance and quicker going west and through an assumed gap in the thunderstorm system . The Captain was eager to maintain the airline's 96% on-time statistic. That decision was a factor in the fatal outcome.

Having flown in and out of Houston many times in the course of my career as an airline pilot, I came to grow intimately familiar with the type of thunderstorms mentioned in this case. The rule was to avoid them at all costs. The weather radar that I had to work with was infinitely better than what they had back then.

I was on the site of this crash shortly after it happened. I was with a fellow TV news reporter, and we were closer than any other television station. We had just wrapped up- preparing materials for the early evening news and were out to eat when we were called. Traveling north toward Dawson, we passed through rain so heavy that all I could see was the tail lights of the highway patrol car in front of me. If that's what they had crashed in, they would never have seen the ground coming. It was a large crash site, fortunately not too far from the road, dense with small trees and brush, mostly covered with small chunks of aircraft. The sun went down, and it was a nightmare scene. There was little if any fire. Fortunately, while the entire crash scene was very large, the recovery scene was reasonably manageable. I believe the nose of the cockpit struck the ground nose down. I found a large crater, and at the bottom was the captain's cap. Officials monitoring recoveries and counting remains at the school gym were at first confused by counting 86 bodies from a flight that was recorded at 85 passengers and crew. And then the manifest revealed the corpse among the freight. I shot a couple of rolls of 16mm film and left my partner there with the sound camera and returned to the station. I sat with the film processor operators and took the film from the drier, still wet, and mounted it on the control room projectors wet, and we ran it raw. Fortunately, it did not depict any human remains, since we had no time to edit it and barely got it on the late news. Quite a night for an 18 year old reporter.

That's a lot to read into that one little statement. It seems he realized he had made a mistake and felt the ATC was needling him about it. Since he requested a course change shortly after that, it doesn't seem like he was trying to cover up anything. In fact he was actually admitting to the co-pilot that they had made a mistake and needed to correct.

This ranks up there with one of the weirdest aircraft accident reports I've watched in a very long time. That aside, I've been a Texas resident all my 75 years and am quite familiar with the weather patterns described here, particularly in the late spring when cold air masses still drift down from Canada and collide with the warm, moist air coming in from the Gulf of Mexico creating a clash of air masses. Not sure why the airline personnel at the time didn't recognize these air mass patterns well before they actually formed.

[@bloggerccc]

An original color videotape from the 1950s of Fred Astaire was supposedly found by a TV engineer upon the occasion of his retirement many years later (1990's, I think; the date is better known to some). He was cleaning out his filing cabinets and there it was. Googleing for Fred Astaire old video will allow you to learn more and actually see the show. I cannot say if what you see is from the "filing-cabinet" tape or from another version. The quality is quite good; today's TV sets and computer monitors probably render a better picture than early color receivers ever could!

[@Dovietail]

It's hard to know what you would do as a pilot when the controller basically says "are you going to believe me or your lying eyes?"

[@skullsaintdead]

But most decent, reasonable people wouldn't think selfishly and put their ego ahead of safety or admitting they made a mistake. That captain did not have the right personality to be in any position of power: "Stop taking to him (i.e. the guy giving you info that disagrees with our beliefs/attitudes). This is an especially egregious example of confirmation bias and belief perseverance. "He's trying to get us to admit we're wrong". Totally unacceptable response to any situation, especially a life and death one. Shame on people that think like that, assuming differing viewpoints are a personal insult, it's almost as if they think humility and empathy are 'weaknesses'. They cause so much harm and often lash out at people who simply hold opposing views to their own.

Always love to see how small towns pull together in such times. A fire recently took out much of a smaller town and many people showed up with food, water, etc. and made sure all firefighters were taken care of as well as people who lost their homes. A few years ago when we had the blizzard here in Texas, the local water treatment facility was having their pipes begin to freeze over. Many local welders, etc. came out with propane tanks, flame nozzles, and wood to keep fires under the pipes and kept the town from losing water.

[@Dragonchick27]

Thank you for covering this incident, Chloe. I have had anxiety about flying for several years, mainly due to turbulence, but hearing your breakdown and knowing how weather tracking has evolved since this time has helped me immensely with rationalizing the buffeting of planes when I’m flying now. Interestingly, I went to Wikipedia to look into this accident a bit more and came across another Braniff flight, 250, from just three years previous, that is almost an exact repeat of 352 (or the other way around; not learning from history and all that). The only significant differences were the location of the crash and the type of aircraft involved. It makes you wonder a bit more about the letter vs spirit of the “law” that the pilots may have followed at BIA.

[@pkeelan56]

Was the other crash outside of Falls City, Nebraska? I think that Braniff flight was going from Kansas City to maybe Minneapolis. Crashed outside of Falls City. Don’t remember the year. Maybe late 60’s, early 70’s.

[@lilzuuzi]

The fact that the captain informed the passangers that "deviating to the west will be more comfortable" it seems to me that for him the storm only seemed like a minor inconvenience and that he was, at that time, convinced that they could even go THROUGH the storm, but that would make the flight less comofortable. Maybe the ATC could have informed the captain a bit sooner that ALL other aircraft went to the east but on the other hand I understand that he did not question the captain as he seemed totally chill and confident at that time...

[@refinedsugar]

Let's not sugar coat things. This was pilot error. The suggestion that the ATC owns some of the blame because his warning didn't come "sooner" is weak.

[@cremebrulee4759]

​​@@refinedsugarefinitely. For one thing, the pilot should have been aware of the limits of his radar. Also, when everyone else was diverting East, he should have considered that maybe someone saw or knew something that they didn't. I'm not saying that everyone should follow like lemmings to the sea, but the majority is often right, especially in a situation like that. In the end, it was the captain's decision, no one else's. Also, keep in mind, that back then there was no such thing as cockpit resource management. Even if the first or second officer I disagreed with the captain, it is unlikely that they would have said anything in disagreement with the captain's decision.

[@cremebrulee4759]

It was the captain's decision to make. He could have inquired more about who was deviating what direction, too.

[@thewhitefalcon8539]

The captain had better weather information. The captain can be blamed maybe for thinking he's smarter than all the other planes, but ATC had nothing to do with it

[@tomquayleguitar]

These videos are so fantastic! I’ve been addicted for a while now. Thanks for all the hard work you put into this superb channel!

[@tarkwright6511]

As an airline pilot I can say that it isn’t uncommon to visually navigate between storm cells. We most often follow other aircraft ahead, but not always. Air Traffic Control sometimes even asks aircraft if they are willing to be “Trail Blazers” to see if there may be an alternate route around storm cells. I empathize with the captain and first officer. They thought they saw a way through and made a judgment call. Unfortunately, it didn’t go their way. The 180 turn had been a common tactic and still is today for slower aircraft, the idea being to minimize time of exposure to severe weather. In this case they likely would have made it out the other side if they stayed the course. It’s easy to judge from the comfort of the living room.

[@clarkharvell5242]

as a casual observer, it seems to me that the ATC could have been a bit more (hard to come up with the right word) forceful? with his recommendation to go East???
