Interesting music... Not bad 🙂
Hi. I miss being in aeroplane, flying to other countries...
Nice view light rail
This surely is one of the best planes in the world!
This is just fabulous! Thanks so much for posting. About the time this film was made, I was 12 years old and a huge West Coast Airlines fan. I used to hang out at the airport in Boise to watch their DC-3s, F-27s, and DC-9s come and go. My first airline flight was on a West Coast DC-3 in 1965.
yes ... it's a neat window into the past ...
Interesting side note, Carol Clark who is the Flight Attendant in this film married Captain Ted Nicolay. who later died when Hughes Airwest flight 706 on June 6, 1971 was hit by a USMC F-4 doing barrel rolls. When the lawsuits that were filed by various individuals, Carole met Irv Tague who was the CEO of Hughes Airwest and they were later married.
West Coast was the only airline operating from BFI during the 60s, and I believe that applies to the mid and late 50s as well.
I will now explain what S..T..E..N..D..E..C means its NOT an anagram of DESCENT or STANDBY nor was it misunderstood, misspelled or misread or even mistyped. I almost didn't post this comment, simply because I adore mysteries, that being said I will leave a few of the BEST possibilities?, so YOU can figure out which one IS the truth. I'm sure people will probably doubt this explanation or say WTF you cow, what do you know lol, Maybe I'm a historian with a doctorate in cultural Anthropology and soon Archaeology or? So without further Ado. The mystery of S..T..E..N..D..E..C Solved A second world war Morse code acronym for: "Severe Turbulence Encountered, Now Descending, Emergency Crash-landing". It is standard radio telephony (Morse in 1947). A retired senior manager with the Federal Aviation Administration (Air Traffic Control). Many years before his career with the FAA, I was an Instructor Pilot with the United States Airforce. Years before that he was trained in Instrument Flight Rules flight by an old Army Air Corps Flight Instructor, who was 85 years old when he taught it to him and had taught and flown in Britian during WWII. His pilot's license was signed by Wilbur Wright, the first Administrator of the C.A.A. (the predecessor of the FAA). He knew everything there was to know about flying and aviation, and he greatly valued his time with him. He learned things about aviation from this man that was never heard anywhere else, before or since. These "jewels of knowledge" have remained with him 'till this day. S.T.E.N.D.E.C. is purely British. In American Radio Telephony, the equivalent term is: B.O.D., "Beginning of Descent." In British Radio Telephony it's: "STARTING ENROUTE DESCENT" (S.T.E.N.D.E.C.). As soon as I heard this in the video, I recognized it immediately. It's rather surprising that a British aviator hasn't come forward with the explanation of this. Perhaps it hasn't been exposed to a British aviator of the period. Aviation is sprinkled with acronyms. Many of these acronyms can be very obscure, until you associate yourself with those in the business. Many aviators engaged in the business today aren't even familiar with many of these "older" terms that were in use before modern radio navigation aids and radios. I also began to learn the control of air traffic, with some of these old acronyms. These acronyms mentioned above were quite common in the days when I learned to fly. I still have aviation charts that would have been current when Stardust went down. Things were vastly different in aviation in those days. ~OR~ The Morse code word STENDEC is an abbreviation for "Stardust Emergency Descent"! ST=Stardust EN=Emergency DEC=Descent The aircraft could have stalled in the jet stream due to fuel-air mixture inconsistencies or even icing. The aircrew frantically and hastily sent a Morse message in abbreviated format "STENDEC." Upon emergency descent, the engines powered up again, but it was too late. The engines had just picked up substantial power again, when it slammed into the mountain at full power. There was also probably very little visibility due to cloud cover. ~OR~ The message was an attempt to deliver the most information, while describing the situation in the least amount of time. ST..EN..DEC ST "Starboard" EN "Engine" DEC "Descending" This would describe a failure of one of the starboard (or right) engines with a resulting Descent of the aircraft. This theory may also explain why the plane was found about 50 miles off course, as the thrust would be unequal causing possible directional problems. If this code breakdown is correct it was an amazing effort to get the potentially life-saving information out given a limited time frame. This theory may be proven when the starboard engines are recovered, as the prop damage should verify that one of the right engines was not running at the time of the crash. ~OR~ In communicating Stardust's arrival time, the operator would not have included 'hrs' in the transmission. This has been added by subsequent authors for clarification purposes only.The text of the message (without pauses) was likely: ETASANTIAGO1745STENDEC Inserting the pauses, which depend on the 'fist' of the operator and may have been misunderstood by the listener, gives us: ETA SANTIAGO 1745ST END EC The meaning of the transmission seems clear to me: ETA = estimated time of arrival SANTIAGO = destination 1745ST = 5.45PM Standard Time (as opposed to Daylight Savings) since August is winter in Chile END = switching to radio (voice) EC = misread of AR = End transmission
+Kelly Lowry Oops I forgot a rather important part My Bad..The FULL last Morse code message sent by Star Dust was "ETA SANTIAGO 17.45 HRS STENDEC".The Chilean Air Force radio operator at the Santiago airport described this transmission as coming in "loud and clear" NOT simply S..T..E..N..D..E..C Why that IMPORTANT part was left out of the video..is I guess a new Mystery Enjoy All :)
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
I believe that the aircraft crashed because of a lack of oxygen. Why? Due to a lack of oxygen, the aircraft needed to descend quickly, however the sender of the morse code message would have been suffering from hypoxia, (lack of oxygen), and was attempting to inform someone that they were descending, but suffering from hypoxia sent s.t.e.n.d.e.c instead of d.e.s.c.e.n.t. Anyone qualified in Aviation Medicine will confirm this. What may have caused a lack of oxygen...who knows?
S.. T.. E.. N.. D.. E.. C.. in English is an anagram of DESCENT. DESCENT reads: / - . . / . / . . . / - . - . / . / - . / - /, and in no way resembles STENDEC in Morse. This is both clever and amusing, but it requires the crew to have been suffering from a dangerous lack of oxygen.
What year was this film made. Am curious whether the rest of plane wreckage found? Is their a follow up of this story
+driver tom Came here from another vid that said it was found frozen in a glacier.
wow
Stendek is irrelevant anyway. They already figured out what happened so to put much stock in the transmission is futile.
Excellent Doc as well they did a very accurate job of understanding what happened to Stardust.
The flying saucer that destroyed the plane had a big STENDEC billboard on its side.
I think it's fairly likely that the message was "StandBy." STENDEC --> STANDBY. It's the same number of letters and it's an intelligible and logical message for the context. In addition, it doesn't require much imagination to get to STENDEC from STANDBY. E is just a dot, but an A is a dot-dash. So that's one simple addition of a dash (A became E). Rushed spelling and/or mishearing could have easily happened here. D is a dash-dot-dot, while B is a dash-dot-dot-dot. So the operator probably thought he heard two Ds in a row followed by an E, and mentally removed one of the repetitive Ds. (DB therefore became DDE and then pared down to simply DE). The rush could easily have thrown off the receiver. Finally, C is dash-dot-dash-dot while Y is dash-dot-dash-dash. In other words, the FINAL dash somehow became a dot, which could easily happen if the operator was being sloppy or rushed, or the receiver mis-heard (Y became C). The radio operator in Chile said that the message came very fast, which obviously could have facilitated misspelling/mishearing. What I think happened is that it came fast, enabling the errors I noted above. Then, once the plane disappeared, the operator made up the part about having received the message 3 times. Why make that up? CYA, or to get attention, or to be "helpful," most likely. The rush. The stress. Etc.
Stendec - Descent
Standard Easterly Decent
It means, We are about to crash into Mountain !!.
STENDEC is an anagram...he was most likely trying to code DESCENT DESCENT

Nazis in South America may have shot it down...
This disappearance (and her sister plane's) were in every old book about the Devil's Triangle and other mystery disappearances. Nice to see this one solved. Thumbs up to a great job by Argentine Army.
they said some guy on that plane had a large dimond. i dont know about you but id be lookin for that dimond :P very intresting video!
not me! I'd be looking for the diamond!
Everybody knows STENDEC is the name of the pilots sled.
Sled?
Alex Bowell last dying word of Foster Kane in the movie "Citizen Kane" was rosebud. Eventually we discover it was the name of his sled as a child. A long stretch I know but it jumped into my head watching this video.
Ok , I am at 15 mins in & I think with what I have seen so far that the plane was off course & probably flying in poor visibility &/or flying too low? & they flew straight into the mountainside..
I found this with a quick web search..interesting.. A recognized signoff or 'end of message' signal was 'AR' (with no space between the letters). Therefore a standard signoff would be sent as the Morse '._._.' in other words 'EC' without the space. If the messages from Star Dust were sent quickly it is quite conceivable that spaces were misinterpreted. A common message at the time was "Standard Arrival" followed by the direction from which the aircraft was arriving, so in this case if we simply shift a couple of spaces from 'STENDEC' we are left with 'S T A R E AR' or STandard/ARrival/East/signoff: S T A R E AR … _ ._ ._. . ._._.
***** No, They sent the message as described but it could of been misinterpreted like I explained, or even a combination of both, who knows? If you misinterpret a morse message the 1st time ,then its quite understandable to do that again the following 2 times , as they are sent in quick succession & would all be the same, So no reason to assign a different meaning,There were many small variations in protocol at that time depending on where you were in the world , just like when QCd was the distress signal at sea until it was changed to SOS, there were differences until it was Standardized everywhere, or the colour of rockets fired at sea, Its just a theory that is IMO a lot more plausible than some of the fantastic stories that have cropped up over the years,
I disagree, but thats cool, Why do you say that anyway, could you elaborate a bit more? why would this message be irrelevant? STandard/ARrival/East/signoff: As that would be one of the normal message when the crew hits certain route markers,Thanks
that's interesting , But at the very least it would show where they were flying, hence the inclusion of the "Easterly" direction..& also puts to rest any crazy theories of a secret message or code word .I wouldn't be so easy to dismiss &/or decide what means nothing , especially in an inconclusive history .Thanks for your reply.

That's my theory.
STENDEC - DESCENT
Makes no sense that they would type Descent wrong multiple times in exactly the same way.
***** That's exactly what he was trying to say ... STENDEC is an anagram

What about the STENDEK word investigation?
AFAIK nothing has ever been determined
ncsr111 STENDEC - anagram of "Descent". It could be that the radio operator, for some reason, got the Morse Code chacters in the wrong order. My theroy is that he was advising Santiago Air Traffic Control that Stardust making its descent into what the pilot thought was Santiago Airport.
Kevin Russell : Exactly what I think...
Kevin Russell What I have an issue with is that dyslexia doesn't translate well into morse.

Back when airlines operated from Boeing Field
Not too sure I would want to fly on a plane called a "Stardust ".
I like this documentary.
maybe the mystery word 'STENDEC' is Argeninian for 'fuuuuuuuck!''
Maybe. Lol
MegaFloyd100 STENDEC is an anagram ... he was trying to code DESCENT DESCENT
Jaxar1 That is clever but you're 'bout to crash into a wall, a fine time to start playing word games. And what about the spelling _"STENDECK"_ vs. _"STENDEC"_? Which is the correct spelling from the original transmission, do you know? I'm thinking that it wasn't "stendec(k)" that was said (or spelled out), but something that sounded like "stendec(k)". Like "mendeck", say it fast enough, sounds like "mayday". Or "whendeck", say it fast enough, sounds like "we're dead". Holds more water than the theory of playing anagrams as you slam into a mountain! So, what else could sound like "stendec(k)"? Got any ideas?
+Michelle LeVeaux Radio transmission was in morse code in those days, if the documentary is correct.
this has to be theee most beautiful paint scheme since the RA001 prototype rollout colour on the very first 747 simple yet majestic
Why aren't there any videos of the 787's official RTO tests?
LOVE Cathay and ANA. The boeing 777-300 is simply the most beautiful, perfect plane ever built. Love flying in it. Great video! Greetings from Central America!
just like you
nice!
The 777-300ER is a true beauty, and I love the way she looks on take off. We 777 qualified FA's are excited @AA to recieve ours and I think people will love to see it in the stretch version with the bare metal look. AA first american carrier to fly that version.
The chase planes were basically P-80 Shooting Stars, the first American fighter jets! Actually T-33 trainers but who's quibbling - the ancient and the modern together!
@MrTycoon123 well if he took a bottle up his but then he'd know something about gay sex or getting raped.
@anthony2154 They are testing the RAM (Ram Air Turbine). They have similated an electrical failure, which caused the gear doors to drop at low speeds because all systems, including hydraulic are electrically driven. The RAM is extended behind the lower right/rear fuselage and starts spinning to power up the planes electrics, but leaves out the unnecessary items, like the gear doors, so all power can go to vital functioning of the aircraft.
hhahaha MegaLongHornsfan, your comment really made my day! woohooo
@MrTycoon123 Lol, stripped down to the bones, it's still a 747. And Boeing themselves named it 747 soooo... it's a 747 ? pretty idiot-proof tbh. Although you were an exception ;)
@alleninpa Not even slightly close, the 737 is their best selling plane ever.
Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a good roar the Trent 1000 engine is doing.
@MrTycoon123 exactly my point! All new, in the case of A380 is usually better than a revamped older design such as the antiquated 747. New engines and wings or whatever, it doesnt matter 747-8 is still based on the original 1960s 747 design. This means that 747-8 has design compromises dating back to the original 747.
So damn quiet!.. @3:36, At that distance you would usually hear an engine screaming but but those Trent 1000's, you can't hear anything!
