It’s Halloween night, in the year 2000, and a Boeing 747 crawls onto the runway at Taiwan. Amid howling winds and piercing rain, the pilots strain to see out their windscreens. As they push their four massive engines to takeoff thrust, they have no idea that ahead of them, a terrifying surprise awaits.
This is the horrifying story, of Singapore Airlines, flight 6.

Hello Green Dot! Please could you do a video on in Nigerian crash that happened in Port Harcourt 2005 with Sosoliso Airlines Flight 1145? It would mean so much to my family as we lost a family member and I feel that you are the best youtuber to do it. Lots of love
@@redhot663"on in Nigerian crash" please... your English...
@@internet_userr Weird comment. I am English and from England. It was a typo.
Sorry, I've got strong vomitint reflex when meeting 3D-animation instead of real video. Even still photos could be way better than this, if any.
Both pilots were fired although charges were never filed.
After several years they resurrected their careers at AirAsia, the first officer later becoming a captain.
this ties the whole episode down for me. Thank you
This needed to be said. Weird it's not in the video, usually the aftermath is fully explained....
fvck, I'm a frequent flier at airasia.
@@MABinBarcelo lmao gg
@@MABinBarcelowhich is even safer now because of all the changes from this accident
I was on a flight from HK to Taipei when this happened. We had just broken through the low cloud cover above Taipei airport on final approach when suddenly our plane went into a very steep and violent climb. I had no idea what was happening. I thought the pilot had misjudged the landing or decided the typhoon was too strong to land in. Eventually, our pilot announced that we would be flying back to HK "due to the typhoon". After we landed in HK, we were kept on the runway for hours. Eventually, we were taken off the plane and sent to hotels. On the way through HK airport, I saw lots of reporters trying to talk to the crew. I thought it was all a bit strange. After arriving at the hotel and getting to my room, I turned on the TV and found out what had happened. It was then that I realised our pilots had witnessed that crash from above. I will never forget the sound of those engines screaming as our pilot pulled up.
Holy sh*t, I would have been so surprised
Holy wukamoly that’s shit
I feel extremely bad for the captain. He was sure that he was doing everything right, and he almost was. He fell prey to an error that anyone pilot could've made, and that cost 83 people their lives. Singapore Airlines firing him and the F/O were unnecessarily harsh, and I'm glad they continued to fly with AirAsia.
Exactly! The issue with the lights and markings was on the airport authorities.
Was the airport held accountable in any way???
So many things were working against the pilots. Literally the only thing that wasn’t was the PVD, but it’s unfortunate they didn’t listen to it.
It’s absolutely infuriating that the airport didn’t either temporarily or permanently shut off the lights to the closed taxiway, or put up barriers at the entrance of the closed road, or maintain the other green line properly, or have ground radar, or have literally any signs that a hazard was ahead.
It’s an absolutely unacceptable in today’s world. You can’t rely on a paper map and broken lighting to guide you in terrible weather.

@@daftvader4218Cap 🧢
I was booked on this flight. I changed my schedule by a week literally two hours before the flight. I had flown with the cabin crew who passed just two or three weeks before this crash, on the New York Frankfurt Singapore SQ25.
Wow. Hopefully you have lived your life to the fullest!
sure and im the real donald duck
@@klayed what is it like going through life being so negative?
@@BobbyGeneric145 what it like being a naive moron believing everything you see
@@BobbyGeneric145 i don’t see his comment as being negative. It’s about the fact some of us are reluctant to believe everything we read online.
Damn, I remember this from Air-crash Investigations (TV). Probably one of the least egregious 'pilot-error' accidents in history, whilst it's awful so many died, a 54% survival chance is better than 0%... I was gobsmacked those lights were so misleading on the ground, it's incredible no one else had crashed/overran/became dangerously lost earlier. That dead runway should of been clearly closed, the airport authorities have just as big a role in causing this crash as the pilots, if not more, given the authorities had much more time (and weren't victims of confirmation bias) vs/ the pilots.
So true. However distracted or incompetent the pilots were, they can’t go over concrete barriers. So, if it were cordoned off, the error wouldn’t have happened.
Yup, not to mention if they had ground radar in the tower they would have seen they were lined up on the wrong runway.
You'd think that the pilot would've looked at the airport map though and seen that the taxiway continued in front of him and that, according to the airport map, they couldn't be at 05L since 05L was at the endpoint where you had to turn R. 6:21
12:35 He also ignored his PVD. You'd think he'd take it as a sign that he was on 05R.
I will say they could've at least put barriers up at the ends of the runway also to make it obvious the runway was closed.
Rubbish...Accident was caused by appalling airmanship and professionalism.
Nothing wrong with the airport.
It is entirely the crew responsibility to locate the correct runway.
They just ignored their basic instruments and moving map.
Eg
PVD .the signal that powers that come from the localiser( centre line) of the active runway..
Depaeted on airport surface with NEW GREEN CENTRE LINE TAXIWAY LIGHTING...
????
@@ErasethetruthAnd the fact that the taxiway lights leading to the other runway basically didn't exist in the darkness? So the only lights guiding the pilots were to the wrong runway? That's not the fault of the airport?
Great work. Educational for non pilots.
Thanks for supporting the channel. I wish I was in a place to contribute.

this remind me other accident when airplane explode second when takeoff no survivors... Pilots took run way with poorly lights .. tower keep joking around and pilot didnt focus but they spotted something was wring but it was too late to stop.. thisi s why black boxs are so important for police .. one question was was crash avoidable if tower monitor takeoff? crazy answer was it was not their duty to monitor it.... cant remember what country but sounds A tower fault plane crashed nearly out of run way but it was engulf on flames already!!that episode was on tv

OMG, I saw the green dot video and I couldn't poke my finger on it hard enough or fast enough. Totally excited. I literally haven't even watched it yet, however I could not wait to tell you how much I LOVE Green Dot Aviation and YOU in particular! I'm 70, at home watching a wide variety of pod cast, aviation videos ( my favorite) documentaries, this that and the other ..YOU, my Man, are beyond a shadow of a doubt #1.

@@internet_userrNo one asked you to ask him
Guys, this user is enthusiastically enthusing his enthusiasm for green dot
I’d love if you’d add more of the actual voice records
Yes!!! Nobody does this well!! PLEASE READ THIS COMMENT!
Sometimes there’s no recording, the airline “lost” it or doesn’t want/need to release it
Yeah, more often than not the only available voice records are just the ATC transmissions, and those aren't often important in these videos. It's always great when they're available, though.
I'd love it if people would take just a small amount of time to proof their comments for errors before sending them!
Damn, you can't force his hand like that😂
I was on this aircraft a week prior the incident, it was one of the newest aircraft for Singapore airline I believe and had the most advanced personal entertainment system at the time
"A man sees what he wants to see and disregards the rest." Paul Simon. It seems like a good idea to block access to the converted runway to avoid just such an occurrence. Certainly highway construction projects take this kind of precaution.
Spoiler alert ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗
Exactly. The light should have been off as well. Airport personnel should have been present in foggy conditions because no ground radar. Airport management is more to blame than the pilots as they were negligent with days, weeks to plan this out rather than the flight crew's minutes.
Great quote
Yeah. A simple fence, a concrete barrier or even some cones would have done a great job already making it very clear this runway is out of use.
@@daftvader4218 You’re making it sound like they did it on purpose, completely ignoring the problems that contributed to this accident.
What I love about this channel is the well structured narration and explanation of aviation technology as well as the main point of the videos being informative, mentioning casualties but never making it sound like a horror story. This channel honestly helps me dealing with my fear of flight so thank you 🤗
I thought the niche market for these type of videos was well and truly covered by many others on CZcams.. then along comes Green Dot Aviation. Superb work in covering the events. Thank you very much! 💚
Condolences to all and their families.
Why were there no barriers at the beginning of this "runway"?
It was extreme incompetence not to place barriers around the runway under maintenance. Was anyone in airport management or construction there held accountable?!
@@yeolblt great question
Later in their findings they revealed another pilot did same mistake days before this collision as runway lights were not functional.. then the ATC was also caught up for giving nod to take off without even seeing the plane due to poor visibility that night the reason no ground radar on that airport.
@@BB-xx3dv Singapore isn't really the "developing world". Wikipedia: "As a highly developed country, it has one of the highest GDP per capita (PPP) in the world." Though they are capitalist, they nonetheless decline to follow the doctrine of economic liberalism (the idea that the government should take a hands-off approach to the economy and let the private sector handle everything), and hence they probably have better healthcare, education, etc. than my country (the USA) has.
However, they unfortunately have a problem with authoritarianism. A person can be caned (repeatedly struck with a cane) and imprisoned for overstaying their visa, and can be condemned to death for possessing drugs. I don't think I would want to live in a country with such authoritarian policies.
edit:
I think they were trying to take off from an airport in Taipei, Taiwan, but neither is Taiwan in the developing world. We get all of our computer chips from there!
I agree, there should have been a barrier at the entry if there were barriers and construction equipment further on down.
Moreover, it seems prudent to maybe put a sign up saying something to the effect of "Bro, this ain't a runway! Don't try to take off here!!" (or similar).
Your video on JAL123 came up on my recommended over the weekend and I've just finished binge-watching your entire channel. Keep up the good work!! Your videos are so detailed and fascinating to watch. In particular, I like that you explain avionic mechanics in a way that is simple enough for anyone to understand. Somehow, despite watching so many videos in a row of airplane crashes/accidents, I feel oddly reassured. In the vast majority of cases, it takes so many different people at so many different levels for something to go horribly wrong (in this particular case, the airport staff, and imo to a lesser extent, the captain and FO). May those who lost their lives in this crash find peace.
I really love these breakdown videos a lot. And I really appreciate all the hard work you do with these videos! I have been binge watching them a lot and love the technical breakdown. Thank you again!
Ok and
I remember we were spotting at LAX that day and were wondering what all the news network cars at the international terminal were there for. Arriving at the hotel and checking the news, we found out about the tragedy. RIP to the victims.
I’ve seen this story on a few other channels/shows. You added some additional information that none of the others had. Keep up the great work. You obviously have a passion for this and it shows. Thanks for all the hard work!!
I’m so so sad for them all, the poor captain, crew and passengers and emergency workers - a very helpful video to learn off! Great work as always Green dot team ❤
Thank you for your highly educational and well researched videos. I have been greatly enjoying your videos for a while and finally put aside a few coins to support you further by getting a membership!! Keep the great work going.
Thank you kindly! Really appreciate you becoming a member :)
Your videos are great, well made, thorough and so balanced. I love to travel and fly as a passenger in commercial aircraft and can’t help think that these terrible incidents are always a possibility, but know air travel is the safest form of transport. I hope your work and efforts illuminate all those involved in making air traffic even safer and we learn from these tragic stories. All the best for your career in aviation!
Always excited for the newest Green Dot upload. Keep up the good work!
Another fantastic video by Green Dot. The light count from 12:07 to 12:09 made me want to yell out like the Jean Luc Picard Lights meme from Star Trek: TNG. Keep up the amazing work & I look forward to the next video!
Love your channel. Keep up great work!
I'm so addicted to watching these Aviation videos, between you and mentour pilot , and disaster breakdown . I fell like I can fly a commercial aircraft
This was amazing! Everything explained with even more information that some channels never include!
This video was superb great job!!
Your channel is one of the best on aviation on youtube. You deserve a million subs. Keep it up and you will get there!
Tragic and unfair story, seemed avoidable.
I said it on your last video too, but man your content is so high quality. It adds so much to the story you're telling. Haven't even started this one and I already can't wait for your next one. Keep it up brother. Also, are you going to stick strictly to commercial aviation incidents, or would you consider doing military, private, etc? Thanks!
you have got to stop saying this. Its really not becoming of a gentleman.
@@FK-we1dp Exactly what point are you trying to get across with this comment?
@@superweedenjoyer well said comment, but you made a mistake by replying to the troll comment
yep, you lose bruh.
Really cool to see the interaction with the airport chart . Great video !
Bro thank you so much for doing this stuff for us man, I never miss out on these thanks to you I get more and more info on crashes I never knew about! keep up the good work man
5:57 caught me by surprise but i love it and how u took the map of the airport and traced the route and it turned back to animation..i also love the "November Papa" line
OMG..I've seen other videos covering this accident, but none so detailed! This really explains so much. I was almost sick when hearing the breakdown. Although yes, there were 3 signs from the pilot's instrumentation that showed they were not exactly where they should have been, I really find fault with the airport. The other recreations I saw didn't break down about the green lights & other CRUCIAL details that explain why the pilot did what he did.
As if piloting a commercial aircraft filled to the brim with passengers on a rainy, windy night isn't enough, having to navigate the airways to get to their destinations, trying to find a valid runway shouldn't be such a confusing puzzle. NTSB & airports should clearly delineate & even have barriers to corridors that look like runways. All the airport really had to do was TURN OFF the green lights at the beginning of that runway/taxiway that was under construction, & the pilot would have taxied the jet to the correct runway...which would've been the only one with green lights if the airport had done their due diligence. It really is/was that simple! Again, it's hard enough for pilots to navigate all that they must without having to study a map of an airport like they're studying for a final exam! For shame!
I really enjoy this channel. The videos are very well done and respectful to the incidents documented. Been binge watching them since I found the channel a couple weeks ago. Keep up the great work!
Stumbled on your channel today! Working at Pratt and Whitney and watching your videos have been a journey so far!
This is the best docu on this flight. Well done!
"It's Halloween night" - Jezze I'm scared already
I’m recently growing an interest in aviation and I must admit your videos really helped me to better understand how the industry works for which I am really grateful.
These videos are great, really scratches the itch that Air Crash Investigation used to. Keep doing what you're doing as professionally as you do 👍
He adds teasers but doesn't give the game away like many others do, what air crash and green dot both have is that mystery to them until you find out what went wrong
Great job.Very informative and well explained and presented!
Extremely informative & I had actually flown on that very aircraft about 4 months earlier. It shows just how important concentration is and double checking. RIP all who were tragically lost.
Just discovered your channel You do a great job of explaining this for us non aviator folks
Excellent explanation of this accident. Thanks Green Dot!
Great to see new content from you! Thanks! Even though I already knew the story, it's great to hear you retell it.
I love your videos omg, by far my favourite things to put on while I work!!!
Excellent video as usual.
Always love a green dot aviation video
I’m hooked to your vids, absolutely brilliant
These completely avoidable human error ones really hurt my soul.
Love your work Green Dot 💚
Green heart green tea OHHHHH are you referring to poisob
Its always fun to grab a bowl of popcorn after seeing a new green dot upload! Keep making the masterpieces that are your videos!
I need more popcorn...
@@MarkJoseph81I need more green dot…
I found your channel yesterday and have been on a binge ever since. As someone who has no clue what goes on in aviation and hearing your explanations makes it super clear. Consider me subbed 🖤
Absolutely the best aircraft CZcams channel.
Amazing video as always!
Yay a brandy new Green Dot!
Thank you!
I gotta say mate, your videos are fantastic. Great pacing of storytelling aided by flight recordings and technical information (flaws) of each respective plane makes for banging videos every time.
Thank you very much for the thought and care you put into your videos. Far and away the best on the platform.
Wow. Stunning video and superb presentation and narration. As always ❤.
Im always so hyped when I see you upload. Your upload schedule is just right and I think nobody will forget about you inbetween two videos. Not to mention your videos keep getting better and better.
I love you and your videos the amount of research that you put into them and the visual imagery you add on top of that is next level honestly. Please please please cover western airlines flight 2605 xx
Another great video, man. I was wondering if you had considered covering the Air NZ DC10 crash in Antarctica?
Keep up the good work!
Great video thank you ,shocking story great to here a fellow Irish narrator 🙌☘️
Really awesome vid guys ❤
You are one of the best aviation people on here. I haven’t flown for 12 years due to almost being in a plane crash. Thankfully the pilots did their job. These; however backwards this may sound are helping me so much. Why? Because I’m telling you - now I know roughly how a plane works I feel more in control of the whole process. Thank you c
What happened if you don't mind someone asking?
what happened?
I keep checking for a new video…..thanks for this
Excellent stuff thank you
Wow..i never knew this story that in depth before.
Another awesome video, Sir, thank you for your hard work. I am not a pilot, I do not work at an airport. I wonder if a barrier at both ends of the old runway, rather than just the far end, would have been more suitable - or would they have already been using it as a taxiway ?
Hi love your videos and your explanation of the facts. Would love to see a video about the crash of the 747 from Avianca just before landing in Madrid Spain. Thanks Ivan
The video quality was amazing! I remember that my father's grandpa (who new chairman mao) passed away on that plane. RIP great grandpa and everyone else in that plane.
Could you do playlists of your videos by plane? I’m new to flight sim/aviation in general and I learn a quite a few new things from these videos
Yes! I've been waiting a while for a new video!
ngl would like to see some more non-air crash investigation videos, mean still great work on your vid and i LOVED your south african airways vid (explained alot better than the air crash investigation episode)
Maybe some infamous crashes that havent been covered by air crash investigation episodes would be fantanstic, as me and probably alot of other ppl who watch this channel have probably already seen this episode.
still love your work!!!!!
You have a great channel .... you really do..... just flat excellent work and presentations. Kudos to you, sir
Great video, as always. I don't know how you do the plane animations, but they're very cool!
Please do a video on United Airlines Flight UA1722, which dropped 800 feet after takeoff and almost crashed. The NTSB just published their report on it.
These are so good and well done! I'm a big fan!
Maybe you can make a video about the United 1722 incident, that would be amazing!
Nicely done videos. Just the facts, no focus on yourself just the story, and if you are doing all the animation then that is a lot of work. I also appreciate that there is no hype, no weird sound effects and no overbearing music.
Great episode, thank you.
Good storytelling, bravo
I hate the accidents now, but I love your style. So I keep watching.
Your incredibly detailed explanation has given me the clearest understanding yet of how this crash went down! Your runway maps made it very easy to digest and even though I had heard this story several times I was deeply engrossed. Too many lives lost for such a simple mistake.
Love your channel! Thank you!
Another masterpiece! Thank you so much.
Really like how you added the fire animation to show how it crashed
Keep up the uploads 👍
Great video!
This was one of the most interesting ones yet, thank you for covering this story.
Awesome vid
Another green dot aviation banger just dropped🗣💯💯
Thank you for another 747 disaster series 🫶🏻
Watching this after JAL-516 Jan 2nd, 2024 crash and realising how bad it could have got for JAL. All souls saved onboard JAL by amazing crew and passengers, and bit of sheer luck
I absolutely LOVE your content and wish you had a way to release stuff faster! I’d love to support you but financially right now I cannot. At some point I will but for now, it is what it is. Keep up the great work!
I see a GreenDot upload, I do a speed-click and a pre-watch thumbs up because I know it will be a good one 🥰
This video I saw on disaster Breakdown channel y’all worked well together on the recent video and I’d like to see y’all do it again
You wouldn't believe this but I actually saw the aircraft taking off from Singapore Changi Airport taking of the day before the crash while cycling on the road next to the runway.
What caught my attention was the livery on the fuselage which was unique for its time. The crash really was horrifying to know when I learnt of it the next day... sad loss of many lives.
Since I started watching GreenDotAviation, I started avoiding night departures when possible
AMAZING PRESENTATION!!!!!! YOU THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the video.
I discovered this channel one week ago. I have to say that it is the most gripping stuff I've ever seen on CZcams. I have also learned so much about flying and what goes on in the cockpit.
Needless to say, I have now developed a fear of flying. I worked as a risk analyst years gone by but I've never really assessed the risk of flying in my head. Now I do and It's terrifying. Maybe this sudden feeling comes from the fact that flying in a plane is the only time in your life where you are not in control of your destiny.
Idk how you could supposedly work as a risk analyst and be afraid of flying as a mode of transportation.
A plane crash is obviously going to be far more catastrophic than a car crash, and you have absolutely no control.
Despite that, you are vastly more likely to die driving to and from the airport than you are to die in a plane crash. The odds aren’t close at all.
When was the last time you saw a news story of a disastrous large plane crash (not some prop-plane with two people)?
Compare that to the literal thousands and thousands of successful flights that happen around the world everyday.
As for control, you also can’t 100% someone from t-boning you in an intersection and killing you.
Mile for mile, flying is absolutely one of the safest methods of travel.
These crashes are terrifying, but the odds are that no one who watches this video will end up in a similar crash in their life.
Take it from someone who's ridden a motorcycle for the last 30+ years of his life. You ARE NOT IN CONTROL of your destiny for most of your life. You have some illusion that you control some things, but your legitimate scope of control is tiny... nearly insignificant. You only really have influences that you can exert... playing the dice with little manipulators on your general statistical model, but sooner or later EVERYBODY gets "lucky"... sometimes good and sometimes not so much.
"Live by the sword... Die by the sword." Right?
Miyamoto Musashi lived by the sword. Rose to become recognized as THE (one and only singular in history) Kensei of Japan, which roughly translates to "Saint of the Sword". He died of stomach cancer in a monastery. Thousands of us "fans" make a pilgrimage to the very rock where he drew his last breath, and take a tour to see some of the specific sites where he fought in duels that were well enough documented to get the stories told and places shown...
So much for "Live by the sword... Die by the sword."... EVEN for arguably THE MOST ardent man of the sword in Japan's history... and that didn't take long to research either. (Though I cheated, and grew up in the 80's and 90's when you just about couldn't get away from his mention... haha...
I'd suggest you pop over (at least once in a while) to a couple good channels. "74Gear" where Kelsey (a pro' 747 Pilot) reviews videos, talks aviation, and explains a LOT about how it is in the cockpit today... and "Mentor Pilot" where Petter, a 737 Pilot and instructor or check captain(?) also talks aviation, reviews past incidents and disasters, and helps understand the goings on and progress that's been made to date and speculates on some of where progress is going forward (ish)... Lots to pick up.
Finally, a word of warning about channels like this one. These are "disaster channels" and all you're going to hear or see are, in point of fact, disasters. It's easy to slip into a bias, yourself, when all you see is how easy and monumentally things can go wrong... It's easy to reach a perspective where it seems a g** d*** miracle that anyone gets anywhere in one piece... AND that simply is NOT the case. Incidents do happen, but even they are rare in commercial aviation, and accidents are extremely rare. Granted, it's a cold comfort to those who get caught up in such things, BUT with literally hundreds of thousands or millions of planes in the air a day, even the most vanishingly rare instances still get annotated more regularly than "almost never"... Still, you have a FAR greater chance of dying in an accident on your way to the airport than you do on an airplane. ;o)
i also have a fear of flying, but remember: you're hearing about the very very very rare cases. so many regulations have been changed to make sure nothing like this happens ever again, and they're so rare to begin with in the first place. also, planes are the safest form of transportation in comparison to trains cars boats etc etc etc. there's a reason to have a healthy amount of fear, however planes *are* safe, and accidents like this make sure this fact remains true.
None of us are in control of our destiny! Just enjoy life! i.e.,the end could come at any given hour!
R.I.P. to the souls that was lost!
@@eXJonSnow I agree with everything you say but these videos are just too terrifying to even contemplate. I won't be able to help thinking about these videos the next time I fly. In risk analysis, you measure likelihood vs severity. The likelihood of a plane crash is small but the severity is only one outcome. I'm not saying I won't fly again because that would be a ridiculous thing to say, but nobody who has watched these videos will not think about them next time they're on a plane.
The day is good when green dot guys upload
Thanks man!
Never been this early. Gonna be a good one!
I love watching your videos before bed
good work
