Stories like these are why, as a passenger, I never gripe when my flight gets delayed or rerouted. I’d rather get there late than not at all. Great job as always! Very informative.

@@CarterHancock Ooo yeah! I learnt that one the hard way on my 2nd solo navex in training. The forecast for Canberra was ok but the real situation was a trap for this beginner.

@@MrKylehornsey Awesome, good pilot decision-making. Haven't had any weather encounters like that but I lost a radio while inside the SFRA around Washington, DC... yeah they don't tend to like that
His work is some of the best on the subject. Very well researched and a good amount of information. I wouldn’t mind of the videos weee even longer, delving into some more of the minute details even.
I'm literally shocked that only 3 people died in that second crash. Given the size of that fireball in the video, I assumed it was a total disaster. It's frankly a miracle.
Cuz the Fire station was extremely close to the crash site, the fire fighters and ambulances were there in minutes, however one of the casualties onboard died cuz he/she decided to not buckle his/her seat belt
I'm of the impression that because of the weather combined with the proximity of the Fire Station, the fire was dealt with in a short matter so it effectively minimized the amount of casualties that could've happened.
Michael Origel, the FO for American Flight 1420, is still flying with AA today. China Airlines had publicly disputed the final reports of virtually all their fatal accidents in the 90's and 2000's as an attempt to save face from their poor safety record. The disintegration of Flight 611 in 2002 finally made China Airlines to swallow their pride and made necessary changes behind the scenes, even though they also disputed that accident's cause at first. There hasn't been a fatal crash involving China Airlines ever since.
Dynasty is certainly the most reliable & consistent cargo carrier at my field. Back in 2013 a 747 (cargo) lost a set of inboard flaps - which fell into a lady's house. It's the only hiccup I can recall! Interesting about Origel!
Slight correction: An ILS does have a localizer but that only gives lateral/horizontal guidance. The ILS has another system, the glideslope , for vertical guidance.
Well I've been watching your videos for two straight days now. This is the first one that struck home, hard. I've flown that Dallas to Little Rock AA flight 100s of times in the past few years. I know that flight like the back of my hand, we always land on 22L.
This is why I personally monitor the weather, if it's really bad along the flight path, i rather stay home or wherever i am and not take chances. No schedule is worth more than my life.
Damn, this is why I don’t complain if the schedule changes. Rather arrive than not at all tbh… It’s also interesting to know how in these two incidents pilots were able to survive. It’s seems to me that for the most part, when there’s a plane crash, the crew in the cockpit almost never makes it to the end. ):
I definitely remember American 1420 and, last year, I heard a story from someone who was sitting in their sunroom watching the storm and heard the crash. Sometimes, I see the part of the runway where the overrun occurred and just get a chill.
I was there when this happened. there are so many shameful things that happened within the hour or so after the crash. there is so much more to this story.
Great video dude, keep it up, this is the type of content that you get big... if anything add more visual animations of the stuff you’re describing... Not only does it help visual what you’re saying but following along is way better
I was on a plane landing in New York during a violent North Easter. I can remember the pilot was basically sideways to the airstrip and I was looking out at nothing but white caps on the ocean. I'm sure he was pushing that plane as far as it could go. I'm absolutely terrified of that kind of Landing now.
i have had the luck of flying as a pasenger aboard dc9 up to md 80/82 both on austrian airlines and on scandinavian airlines. i love the dc9 and the md 80. my favorite one is sas md80 and dc9. 👍👍👍🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
The problem with the MD-11 was because of its modified tail from the DC-10. It is smaller, so the plane requires a higher landing speed to keep it stable. If speed isn't maintained, , it lands hard and begins to bounce, or porpoise. The pilot then makes the fatal error by fighting the bouncing. He's supposed to let it continue, as it will straighten itself out. Instead, by fighting it the plane can invert just off the ground, as seen in those FedEx crashes.
I always love your videos and am sure it was great. I wish you would have put flashing light/strobe effect warnings at the beginning of the video alongside your content warning. I have light-sensitive epilepsy and this triggered an episode- I dont want to guilt you I just want you to be aware of this potential problem! Please consider adding these warnings in future videos🙏🙏🙏
The storm that was the contributing factor in the crash ended up being the biggest lifesaver that day. The torrential rain quickly extinguished the post-crash fire which prevented the flames from penetrating the cabin.
so am i.i saw that plane the next day on its back,wheels up in the air right in front of the passenger terminal.fuselage blackened.when you think it happened at night and flipped over and there was fire its amazing so many survived.
@@jeffmoore4266 There's an (in)famous post-crash photo of this accident, with an other Mandarin Airlines plane passing in front of the wreckage of Flight 642: www.airliners.net/photo/Mandarin-Airlines/McDonnell-Douglas-MD-11/44640/L Amazing that 312 people survived this crash.
Absolutely crazy that more people didn't die. The explosion in the video looked horrific. And the plane even flipped over! But it seems that even though the wings were destroyed, the fuselage stayed intact for the most part. Combined with the rain helping to put out the fire and people being strapped in their seats for the landing, that probably saved many lives.
From my understanding, FedEx 14 and 80 bounced before it crashed and flipped over onto its belly. Flight 642 didn't, but it somehow also flipped over. But it's a miracle that there were only 3 fatalities in it. I almost expected you to say that majority, if not all, perished. Great work as always, very informative and engaging
Due to the smaller tailplane of the MD-11 compared to the DC-10 made the MD-11 want to pitch up more. This meant the MD-11 needed to land at higher speeds to counter this pitch up. Crews were instructed to increase thrust just before touch down to slow the aircraft's descent. The stretched fuselage also gave crews the illusion the plane had its main gear firmly on the ground if it for some reason bounced causing them to push the nose down increasing the stress caused by the second bounce to damage the plane's structure.
First video I've seen talking about that crash (Mandarin Airlines Flight 642) I've come across in multiple crash compilations. This is probably the most visible example of that video I've seen as the others were genuinely hard to see the accident as it occurs.
2:50. I love a good crab landing in the morning. Actually morning wind is worse here in FL. If it’s windy in the morning it’s going to be windy all day
Love the use of LTR's music c: at least I believe its their music since Its been so long since I heard, but the song at the start certainly sounds like their work!
Another great video, and I especially like the coverage of two separate but similar incidents. Now I have what is probably a stupid question - if I go to Patreon with nothing but USD, how do I know the conversion to your categories expressed in £'s ?
Took off during a snowstorm in Delaware one time and I'll just say this... never again will I step foot on a plane during those conditions again. It was to the point where I'm positive the plane should not have taken off. But did I die, you may be wondering? Maybe. 👻
Flying during nasty weather is what gave me PTSD. I refuse to look outside if we’re over the ocean with turbulence. I will end up having panic attacks and lose it. It was a horrible, terrifying experience. I guess flying in the early 2000s was something else
There alternate landing was memphis not Nashville. I was on that flight number the day after as scheduled comming back from honeymoon. Needless to say I have a huge fear of flying. Hubby is a AA pilot. He was hoping to withhold info on the crash until I got home, but someone in Dallas let me know why we had to get new tickets. I still gave my original ticket.
Pro-tip: If your plane crashes while landing, you can get some of the money you paid for the ticket back, as they didn't fulfill their contract fully, as that contract also included a safe landing.
Well depending on cause, my family would likely get get wrongful death suit and my life insurance would compound those monies into a favorable outcome. Though, I find a lot of joy in little things like a dead man being refunded his ticket cost.
I still have a ticket with this plane number. We were to be on it the day after it crashed coming back from our honeymoon. I hate flying and someone told me about it as American was rebooting my ticket. Needless to say my anxiety was through the roof. It was so bad they had to serve me drinks before we even took off. While about to land Mt drunk ass looked out the window and yelled to everyone on the plane- There's the wreckage! I have never seen windows close faster. And that is only a quarter of that story. Rip to the people and the ones I knew.
I used to fly all the time, but after watching enough of these vídeos, plus my own scary eperience the last time I flew, NEVER AGAIN. NO WAY, NO HOW. I'll take my chances vía car from now on.
I'm awake more than 16 hours a day and also work 8 hours with driving 30 mins to and from work. So why is that an excuse to be tired? Or were they working 16 hours in a row?
You can see why at 62 they won't let you be a captain in most airlines. So stupid to have the answer to the speed problem on take off and then completely ignoring when in the air
So I think this is actually China airlines but they haven’t have time to change the painting of the plane. So it was actually China Airline 642 but with the painting of mandarin airline.
An ex military pilot is still far less likely to do something really stupid like pull back on the stick of a stalling aircraft. You increase power and push forward!

This.

Absolutely true. Another thing to remember regarding the tech we have is that we fly the weather we find, not the weather that's forecast.
@@CarterHancock Ooo yeah! I learnt that one the hard way on my 2nd solo navex in training. The forecast for Canberra was ok but the real situation was a trap for this beginner.

Who could have imagined that an even more modified version of the DC-10 had massive design flaws. Thanks for clearing all that up for is 😂
I did not understand why when AA changed the plane, the allowed working time for pilots extended?
It's appalling that aircraft are permitted to fly in dreadful weather. Better a delay than lose so many lives

That lightning strike scared the 💩 out of me😂
Flying the MD-11 was like walking a tightrope. It was a stretched DC-10, which was already temperamental to land, not unlike its DC-9/MB-80 siblings.
The DC-9 and DC-10 families are some of the crashingest damn planes around…
ATR aircraft are even worse

How on God's earth did ANYONE live in that China Air crash?
You can see why at 62 they won't let you be a captain in most airlines. So stupid to have the answer to the speed problem on take off and then completely ignoring when in the air
The video of the second crash is horrifying. In a matter of seconds hundreds of people were gone just like that.
no they were not, watch the video
I'm surprised with modern technology they don't have CCTV cameras in planes
So I think this is actually China airlines but they haven’t have time to change the painting of the plane.
