  • On 31 October 1999, EgyptAir Flight 990 crashes into the Atlantic Ocean while flying from New York City to Cairo, killing all 217 people on board. The cause of the crash is disputed: the Egyptian government claims that the crash was caused by a mechanical failure with the elevators, but the US government claims the aircraft was deliberately crashed by the Relief First Officer Gameel Al-Batouti.

    The cause of the crash of EgyptAir MS990 Is suicide by pilot not mechanical failure. And the person who cause the crash Is Gammel Al-Batouti.

    Egypt claimed that the elevators were stuck in down positions, then how was the Captain able to pitch-up the airplane and climb a diving aircraft according to the FDR.
    The plane is cruising horizontally then all of the sudden elevators get stuck in down position by themselves not unless the FO pushed the stick down.
    And on top of everything else why was the fuel shutoff to both engines. Were they on fire or leaking fuel.
    So a modern aircraft had elevators stuck in down position and simultaneously had both engines affected. What are the chances!

  • @citizen240
    @citizen240 2 роки тому +9

    There is a plausible three-part scenario without necessarily getting into religion.
    (1) Batouty- Why did he do it?: From the scene where his superior confronts him in the hotel and tells him he’s gone too far and that he’s taken his last flight to America, he knows that once back home he faces at least the shame of losing his job and its perks, and worse if the reason he lost the job leaks out.
    Since that superior is flying on the same flight, crashing the plane not only relieves Batouty from facing public embarrassment, by eliminating the individual who would fire him he will derive the posthumous benefit of family and others remembering him with a good reputation.
    Based solely on the information presented in the video, there is no basis to conclude that he considered the lives of the other passengers in one way or another.
    (2) Why doesn’t “Egypt” believe he did it?: Any group of people - nation, religion, race, etc. - who suffer from persistent derogatory stereotypes understandably wants to emphasize evidence contrary to that stereotype. And it is the president of a country who especially wants to promote positive images - like Egypt Air being a safe and well-run airline operated by competent professionals who happen to be Egyptians.
    In an authoritarian nation, the story that the president wants to tell is what gets parroted by every government official who knows what’s good for them. For that reason, the only theory presented in Egyptian media is the “stuck elevator” story. And, furthermore, the argument that “foreigners blame it on Batouty just to put us down”, is certain to resonate with most of the citizenry. (Note the exception of the Egyptian pilot who went to London to give his testimony to the NTSB investigators.)
    (3) Why don’t members of Batouty’s family believe it?: Just simple (and understandable) family pride and denial.

      I can see why you might think that, but I think not.
      Batouty was the relief 1st officer. If he had waited, he then would be taking his position in the right hand seat at the same time that the relief captain took the pilot’s seat, and therefore he could not be certain he’d ever be alone with the opportunity to take over control of the aircraft.
      The point where the regular duty captain excused himself from the cockpit was precisely the opportunity that Batouty was depending on and when it presented itself he had to seize it. It was a sure thing, rather than waiting until his assigned time to be in the cockpit and then taking the chance that the relief pilot might not take a break.
      To your point and using your reasoning, I agree that for Batouty’s purposes it would have worked out “better” for him if the regular captain had taken his break an hour or so later.

  • @thornysnotsoepic

    No, the Relief First Officer intentionally sent the plane into the ocean. Why did he insist on being in the cockpit 20 mins into the flight? Why did everything go wrong as soon as the captain stepped away to use the lavatory? Why didn't he try to help the captain regain control? So many questions and as to why he did what he did. It was an intentional crash, but the Egyptians don't and won't see it that way. The comment by the nephew made me sick, "just a simple plane crash." Horrible.

    Love this channel, but I never read the comments or descriptions to Mayday in advance, specifically to AVOID knowing the outcome like was given away in this title. In the cases where at least someone survived, it's such a feeling of relief! Even if not...bottom line is that it still draws you in more to not know immediately. Whether resulting in relief or sadness or a mix - it makes you feel things more to learn about it by watching instead of giving it away in the title.
    Since
    Also, plenty of Mayday episodes have survivors, even if it's not the majority, so this title is not a given. And even if we know within the first few minutes that at least *someone* survived, due to interviews w/ crew or passengers, we usually don't know total loss (if any) until the end of the reenactment portion, often 15-30 minutes in. And that makes for a very gripping intro.

      Actually the real cause is either pilot suicide/murder or mechanical failure. That is known for sure. Since no mechanical failure can reproduce what happened, you can logically deduce it was pilot error. Even if it was mechanical failure, the plane was recoverable. Since this plane did not recover, it was either double pilot error or pilot murder.
