- In this compilation of Mayday, we take a look at three different flights: American Airlines flight 1420, United Airlines flight 811 and AeroPeru flight 603.
Experts analyse various plane crashes with an aim to figure out how these disasters occurred. They also shed light on how such accidents shaped the aviation industry and improved safety standards. Along with interviews with aviation experts and eyewitnesses, Mayday reconstructs real-life air disasters to find out the events leading up to it.
Season 1 Episodes 1, 2 & 3

The Captain Dave just passed away last year. The main Flight Attendant, Lara, just turned 73. She flew with United for almost another 20 years. The injured flight attendant has never been on a plane since and the male flight attendant quit and went into another profession.
OH, and I love the Campbells they are a force to be reckoned with, RIP Lee Campbell.
I got to tell you that vacationing aviation lawyer on flight 811 who hadn't had a vacation in 5 years.
I applaud the effort of the Campbell parents. We'd all want to know what happened to our children, and we'd all want to do everything possible to ensure that no other families would have to go thru such a tragedy if it could be prevented....especially if it's something quite easily preventable. It took a lot of fortitude for them to see that through.
I absolutely love the parents in the 1st story. They were determined to get to the truth and they didn't stop til they did. Way to go Mom and Dad
I was a Flight Attendant with United at the time of 811's incident and worked with Laura Brentlinger a few years after it happened. On that crew, the 3rd Flight Attendant was Tim Owens. Tim was a Flight Attendant on UAL 232 that crashed trying to land at Sioux City, Having them both on my flight and having them share their experiences was both an honor and extremely educational.
The Campbells, who lost their son in the cargo door incident are totally badass. To have done their own investigation in parallel to the NTSB's is absolutely incredible. They must be super intelligent to have accomplished that feat and be right! They shouldn't have had to force the issue just in search of the truth.
“Cost of doing business.”
You'd expect a few lawyers to be on-board an accident flight but an AVIATION LAWYER?!? Airline's nightmare scenario.
I like the complete lack of music in the first episode. Gives me the capacity to just understand and appreciate the show.
That episode about the United 747 incident was so very well done.The most impressive part was the dedication,tenacity,and unswerving resolve to expose the truth by the Campbells after the death of their son.Profits versus safety is certainly food for thought.
I'm an HVAC systems designer. There is NO SUCH THING as ANY amount of "harmless" smoke coming from any HVAC system.
I flew on a 747 in the 90’s. Prior to takeoff, they couldn’t close the cargo door. I heard a lot of noise up in 1st class & I asked the flight attendant what going on. She said “the cargo door is stuck open & they are welding it closed “. This took about an hour. In flight we hit severe turbulence & I asked the flight attendant “what happens if that cargo door opens?”. She said “don’t worry, we’ll gradually decompress “!
AA FLT 1420, NTSB blamed it all on the pilot. His widow sued the airport and won!
Wonderful work by an amazing couple.
I would like to discuss Kevin Campbell commenting that he was an Engineer and was coming up with re Engineering an existing bad blue print. I've been an Airline Line Mechanic and Commercial Pilot for 40 years, including Inspection and Supervisory roles. I have run into many "Engineers" that can't get the parts to fit back together and take it upon themselves to modify the part, totally wrong and illegal. My point is that both the DC-10 that had hooks to lock the door and pins to lock the hooks and Boeing 747 that had hooks to stop the camming action of the C Locks have had failures. The real solution is to have hooks as per DC-10 or cams as per 747 but you need to have an over center mechanism and then use a camming lock that can't be applied unless the door is closed and locked and will completely destroy the opening mechanism if it tries an unscheduled opening. If this sounds like something that is unlikely then you are not familiar with aircraft design at all. These are not bridges or cars or trains, they are relatively light weight and follow certain doctrines of materials and design when being manufactured. At 7 or 8 PSID think of how many tons of pressure must be against those doors at cruise. These locking mechanisms don't need to be modified, they need a complete re-design. My condolences go out to the Campbell family and their efforts were heroic, I just hope someone gets on these doors and figures out how poorly they were designed in the first place; in other words lets not improve on a bad design. Wipe the slate clean and start over, make a door that works for Gods Sake. My two cents from an Airline Mechanic; list of Boeings I've been on over the years 707,727,737,747,757 and 767, my time in Airforce was on the C-130. I'm not an Engineer but a Licensed Mechanic and know how things are supposed to work.
OMG the flammable material in an Airplane is INSANE.
I love how the father was proactive, assertive, dedicated, knowledgeable and used his abilities out of love for his son to research and expose the means of their son's death. This is family as it should be, They kept drawing attention and forcing the issue.
I just booked my flight to New Orleans for April... maybe I should stop watching these videos now...
Can you imagine?! One moment you're sitting in relative peace and quiet, cruising at over 30,000 feet, at over 500mph, not a care in the world as you read your book, stream your show, or take a snooze.... and in the literal blink of an eye you're ripped from the plane, thrown out into the ether, where you are now freefalling to certain death, and probably still strapped to your damn seat!!
