I was on that Logan air flight. It was due to land in shetland, there was a flash that lit up the cabin of the plane in blue. Then we plummeted. A man a few rows behind me had a panic attack and after we leveled off the air hostess came and tried to comfort him. There were lots of people very shaken.
I remember the hostess giving out little sweets and drinks trying to calm people down.
It seamed like quite a while before we got an announcement from the captain, he said that we had been struck by lighting and the plane was in full working order. The reason we decended was to get clear of turbulent air and avoid further lightning strikes and as a precautionary measure we'd return to Aberdeen.
It was only after we landed in Aberdeen we were told how serious the situation was. Every passenger was taken off the plane, we never went through the normal arrival gate instead we we're taken to an air lounge in the airport and waited there until the captain and co pilot came and addressed us all personally and told us what had happened. They told us the reason for returning to Aberdeen was because the aircraft was hit by lightning It would need to be inspected before being able to fly again and it was easier to have that inspection done in Aberdeen than in shetland.
We were all given good accommodation for the night and flew to shetland the next morning.
It was 5 days later when I read in the local news paper what had actually happened and that the decent we had made in the aircraft wasn't actually planned.
Funny thing is my mother was waiting in the car at sumburugh airport to pick me up. At sumburugh airport you have to drive over the runway to get to the airport and there are gates that close when a plane is arriving/departing to stop vehicles short of the runway. My mum was stopped at these gates and watched the plane get struck on final approach then dive. She thought we were going to crash. It was 2 hours later before we landed in Aberdeen and I could call her. This happened a few years ago now and seeing this video, which I didn't know even had this flight on has made me realise just how lucky we were! Really didn't expect to see this, I had to re-watch it to make sure I heard the details right, caught me totally by surprise seeing this.
Wow, thanks for sharing!
thank you for sharing with us, very interesting!
@@userurirhhrududjd you're welcome, I'm trying to find the full episode to watch now as all these years later I never actually knew how serious this was. I'm honestly really surprised to see this on here as I always thought it wasn't that bad of a situation. Very very strange only realising now how close we were to an accident.
You are really lucky.
It was God's sake that all of them survived because even a single failure can crash an aircraft.
May God keep you safe and hope thete are no more flight crashes .
@@animallover2105 thanks for the well wishes, same to you! Stay safe :)
It's scary the way I am getting addicted to plane crash videos
Same
Dont worry. Youre not all e.
Alone.
For some reason it makes me nostalgic, makes me wanna get on a plane again.
psycho warning
There’s always a relief when a person from the specific plane does a interview
Some might call that a "spoiler" but it is a relief, because you know that means at least one person survived. Most stories in these series aren't happy ones, but some are.
I will say those are the ones i skip. GLAD EVERYONE LIVES THAT LIVES, not saying i wish that TO happen at all. Just more interesting when pilots ARENT able to figure out the problem. Its amazing there are not MORE crashes but so GLAD there are NOT many crashes.
Se parece a🎉
47 passengers but only a single flight attendant, that's got to be a living nightmare to deal with and right on the edge of the FAA's limit of 1 flight attendant for every 50 passengers, poor flight attendant. :(
HAHA do you think its a fuqeen daycare in the plane ? l0lw
The crew of the Loganair flight are angels. I especially enjoyed the first officer. Her quick thinking is most likely what saved all those lives. Gotta love when first officers get a chance to shine! 👍🏽
agreed! that last ditch attempt was amazing and it was because of her that everyone was saved
What did the first officer do exactly?
What 'quick thinking'? First officers are just as important as captains, but I'm getting the feeling that you're only praising her because she's female.
Typical useless male, feeling attacked because a woman got praised. Scared of homosexuals too, a bit pathetic, no?
@@cessnacitation-x What exactly is a female?
@@cessnacitation-x she reminded the captain to increase the speed as it is their one and only way left to climb
That Loganair plane was just seven seconds from striking the sea when a glitch caused the autopilot that they were fighting to disconnect. They were really lucky.
Thank god god bless pilots 👌🇬🇧🌹🌹

Breaks my heart seeing them fight so hard because almost every time it always ends with the death of everyone. So it was a pleasant surprise to see at least this crew survive.
Coming home and finding that a plane has destroyed yourself must be a unique experience
That Propair one was the most heartbreaking of them all. The pilots were only seconds away from saving lives but they weren't able to do so because the wing failed completely. 😢
I like Lucario.
Yeah, their brakes were indeed faulty, reason why it took long to take off because the brakes on left wheel were still locked, that could be the reason why they were dragged and plane dragged a little to the left. Then, after landing gear was retracted, the overheated brake wheel melt the hydraulic line causing the liquid to drip onto the brake wheel and caught fire. The alarm in cockpit for overheat did light up, but after some time it switched off because the fire disabled it. Yeah, they tried to almost land, but it banked to the left, then crashed on runway, wing 1st then upside down.
Did the plane's wing broke off after failure on landing? or was in an engine failure that made the pilot's struggle?
@@IndonesiaMajapahitNDPCA Well, the wing wouldn't snap if the engine didn't fail. Because of the failure the plane banked to the left a little. So the left wing was first to touch the ground.
@@tgavran1870 okay m8
Air Disasters has some of the best visual effects of any documentary and many other shows. The artists working with the computer graphics department are amazing. Also the acting for the scene recreation is also excellent. Very high production values in the series.
You can say that again I’m obsessed with these and my husband complains because I’m getting a phobia 😢
@@marianaguriras7722currently going through the same thing only I’m developing the phobia, and soothing the very problem I am helping create
I've been a flight attendant for 30 years, I feel so blessed to not experience one situation! 🙏

thats amazing..long time flying for no bad situations..ur very lucky!!
Hi I retired from United after 33 years. 🙋🏻♀️
I expect you had yr share of ups and downs in your career! And visited many countries.
I personally loved to fly….miss it very much…..medical conditions prevent me now…..but have fabulous memories!
and you're watching this?
I was a passenger on a plane in which we took off from Atlanta, then returned back due the pilot detecting a small crack located in their window. The captain was amazing, briefing us every step of the way. When we landed everyone starting clapping!
Cool story.
I’ve been on airplanes where we landed just normally and people started clapping.
@@timelapsebroheem962 I think every airplane I've been on has had that
@@timelapsebroheem962 maybe they are Puertoricans 😂😂
We use to do it
I'm from Atlanta too. We left on the plane from Atlanta to Miami, Florida to say our final goodbyes to my sister who had cancer. About 30 minutes before landing the plane took a straight nose dive, we had our seatbelts on due to pilot telling us turbulence ahead. That was a real scary moment. Once landed everyone eerily got out of their seats and off the plane in complete silence. I think we were still in shock about but the pilots never said a word about what happen as to why the nose dive. We did fly back in a couple of weeks but afterwards I never flew again. I'll never forget that experience.

Bah. I never liked my neighbor anyway. 😂
If a plane crashed into the house on my right from my room……I would probs be injured if I’m not out as whichever wing it is would probs be in a part of my room as my house is connected to the one in my right
Considering I live in a townhouse, I guess I'd be a goner...

every time i see a lion air incident, i feel so lucky to be alive. never never again unless the plane is equipped with eject seats
@@johapi so they say.
An ejection seat would definitely kill you, the G forces are way to high and if the plane is in a steep dive it has a low chance of even working. I get your fear but know that all these accidents have made planes safer!

So your telling me they drew a large ballsack off the 6 o’clock position of the airport
Important note about the three passengers who died on flight 703:
Two passengers were trapped in the tail and a third passenger Reginald John Dixon, desperately tried to help free them, unfortunately a flash fire broke out and critically burned him. He died in hospital two weeks later
I hate how the episode didn't mention him anywhere. I was disappointed.
Thanks for your post. It's really important to acknowledge true heroism when we see it. Consolations to all three fatalities and their families. Reginald John Dixon couldn't quite save them and lost his life trying to free them from the terrors of a burning plane. What a hero, I can't imagine how much courage that took. Rest in peace.
Just part of why I don't believe in anyone's god.
Appreciate that. He should have been mentioned for that. I’ve watched so many of these I’ve really thought about what I’d do…and I am convinced helping others keeps your mind off your own fear and combined with adrenaline puts you in the mindset to concentrate. Then again, it can be a weakness like in this case. I guess it comes down to could you live with yourself if you saved yourself? I think most of us could, though survivor’s guilt would be something we’d probably live with forever. But I don’t feel like every person should be expected to help strangers at their own life’s expense.
As a teacher I’ve been in several unannounced lockdowns, none of which involved a shooter thank god and knock on wood, but if we aren’t given prior notice we know it’s not a drill. I become a robot, focused on my main objective which is to make sure the kids have an escape route and if they do not that they are hidden, quiet, and that I am beside the door with my IAD (improvised art device) ready to buy them time. I don’t care what I have it’s nothing against an AR, but if im quick enough I can I jure them before they get me giving my students a chance. I taught middle school for 9 years and now teach high school….while they are still kids it’s a little easier knowing they’re mostly able to think a little more reasonably and im confident there’s be at least one that would step up once im down to help direct things. So I’ve felt that actual terror (I’d rather be in a plane crash to ge honest, where the lives of 30 kids don’t rest on me, someone with the reflexes and athletic prowess of a banana slug. It’s awful because I may not be nurturing but I am fiercely protective and god help anyone coming for my students, but at the same time god help me because the likelihood I am able to do much of anything is small. After that flash of “oh my god” I immediately within a second have all attention on students, making sure they are doing what they need to do, and once they’re in place im beside the door. It’s that focus which actually calms me down. I don’t get upset until after it’s over, and even then I have kids with me and I need to appear in control of myself for their sakes. And all of that helps me think clearly and run through scenarios in my head. Im convinced that if there were a chance for us to live that would be why. Fear induced tunnel vision. Im hoping I could do the same in this situation.
@@patriot20000 is also not enough of an argument for me to give up on God.
So this plane is within seconds of landing land the captain and first officer did not even make any effort to tell the flight crew to prepare the cabin for emergency landing?😢
The first plane made me tear up I'm happy they all survived and May those people who didn't make it rest in peace 🙏 ❤
They were really lucky too. They were just seconds from crashing until a glitch caused the autopilot they were fighting to disconnect.
@@Powerranger-le4up I wish they could have did a short interview too like in some other videos
Uh everyone on the first plane survived, no one died
Ik I’m so happy
@@hxyezontiktok2909 😊❤ and have an amazing day my friend ❤
I was on a plane that was landing in Bozeman, Montana, and suddenly we went from final approach to rapid accent with nothing but land out the windows on one side and sky the other. You could feel the force of the acceleration keeping you in your seat.
We leveled out and the pilot comes on the intercom and goes "hi folks, this is your captain (captain name here, can't remember now) speaking." And then something about how we had to abort because a void passed in front of us on the radar and they lost sight of us. Then he closes with "at no time were we in any danger."
I was in a window-seat on the "nothing but sky side."
Edot: and, yes, darn good captain.
then I see a Ryanair landing on that airport after that
In the end, captains are graded on a pass/fail basis.
I get it they leave us hanging on purpose but i’d really like to know the ending.
Instead of paying like 10 dollars for an episode, you can research the crashes
I live in Akron Ohio and a good friend of mine lived about 500 feet from the duplex that the private jet crashed into. He told me that when the plane flew into it that the entire neighborhood was shaking like the San Francisco earthquake
Like a wise man once said: "If the Smithsonian crew are on board your plane, Get off the plane immediately".
Laughsssssss. This is exaggeration
@Adejare Ifeoluwa hi ifeoluwa, how are you.
How do you come up with something this good
this is one of the best docuseries ever...it really encapsulates the human experience in a way that fiction can't really do bc it's not real
Actually is. Search up all these flights.
@@jznsnb5618 why search them up when we have this series about them?
@@lilyrrichard236 Well.. that too.
this documentary uses all the information that air crash investigators publicly produce. The acting etc is all put on but believe me I'm sure the situation in the cabin would have had a similar atmosphere of panic etc. All the crashes are real and the documentary remakes the crash in a sim with the flight data. There are some cases where the cause of the crash is not known and that's disclosed within the documentary.
4:19 that landing was more butter than butter itself
Man, the guy who plays the ATC in the US Bangla air crash is a pretty good actor. His reaction when he sees the plane crash is quite effective.
I know right? The other ATc was pretty good too imo
These air disasters are just heart breaking. Feel for every single person on board who lost there life's 😪
I had an admiral friend, and when he would take me up in his plane after we landed, he would say cheated death once again. He was a fighter pilot at the start of his career and had to ditch a few planes in his career.
15:34 Flight 5191 (The one that went down the wrong runway with only 1 survivor)
His lawyer tried to blame some of it on the passengers. "contributory negligence on the part of the passengers" Johnson replied that the passengers "should have been aware of the dangerous conditions that existed in that there had been considerable media coverage about the necessity of improving runway conditions at the airport." WOW. Just WOW.
I've looked up the plane I was going to fly on but it's never entered my mind to look up the runway maintenance schedule. I mean what would we do? Oh pilot. Google says the runway has tall grass at the end because their lawnmower is broken. Go ahead and take the other runway. It's ok. I give you permission.....
James Polehinke, the first officer, suffered serious injuries, including multiple broken bones, a collapsed lung and severe bleeding. Lexington-Fayette and airport police officers pulled Polehinke out of the wreckage. He underwent surgery for his injuries, including an amputation of his left leg that confined him to a wheelchair. Doctors later determined that Polehinke had suffered brain damage and had no memory of the crash or the events leading up to it.[25][26][27][28] In May 2012, Polehinke filed a lawsuit against the airport and the company that designed the runway and taxi lights.[29]
The estates or families of 21 of the 47 passengers filed lawsuits against Polehinke. In response, Polehinke's attorney William E. Johnson raised the possibility of contributory negligence on the part of the passengers. When asked by the plaintiffs' attorney David Royse, who criticized the statements, to explain what that meant, Johnson replied that the passengers "should have been aware of the dangerous conditions that existed in that there had been considerable media coverage about the necessity of improving runway conditions at the airport."[30] At the time when Johnson submitted the contributory negligence defense, he had not yet been able to speak to Polehinke. By the time that newspapers reported on the court documents, Johnson said that he had already informed Royse that he would withdraw the argument.[31]
If I found out my lawyer pulled crap like that, I would hire a better lawyer to sue the bastard
Sometimes I ask myself how I managed to survive 22 years as a flightattendent???? We had such disasters, such horror scenarios and 58 degrees centigrade on ground with AC on....
I love that first officer of Loganair she saved everyone on the flight without crashing I’m glad everyone survived
I still think MCAS was criminal, how can you have an automation system based on a single sensor. Also this is a sensor that's famous for jamming in extreme conditions!
And more shocking: Build in an automation on a sensor, that‘s famous for jamming WITHOUT informing the airlines and pilots about this feature! It‘s always shocking that those mistakes are only changed, once blood is spilled and innocent lives are taken…
Damn, #3... The fear in his voice, he knew that was his last moment.
Which one?
Great filming, acting, and re enacting of the crashed site.
Can you imagine how those people felt on these plane crashes? I know I’ve been scared a few plane rides. I’ve had cabin storage compartments, pop open taking off really rough rides a few times.
I won’t know unless it happens, but I envision some initial terror, then myself making sure those around me are doing what they need to do (I am calmer and much better in those situations if I go into teacher mode and don’t pay attention to myself), then if that point comes where I can look at a flight attendant’s face and see we’re probably not going to make it I want to sit back, close my eyes, and just do my breathing exercises while I think about good things. I think being resigned to fate might be weirdly calming.
I watch a lot of these so I’ve thought about it.
If we got on the ground and I’m still alive I’d hope my adrenaline would help me find a hole and exit. If I were able I’d help strangers. My weakness would be kids…I specifically choose to teach the older ones, but even though I’m NOT nurturing by nature I am fiercely protective and that would impede survival for me as I could not bear to leave a kid that appears alone or I’m trouble. But that’s ok with me, my mindset of “kids come first period” at least means if something happens to me, the kids can live. In the US we have to think about that with ever increasing shootings, and unlike my colleagues I don’t have a partner or my own kids at home so that choice is easy for me and ingrained in me now.
Dunno, feel like everyone kind of does better if they have something to concentrate on that can take full attention, so helping others (not saying at your own expense, but if it’s an option) probably would help most of us think straight and pay more attention. Then if you do make it to the ground you’re already in that mindset and with your adrenaline combined with clear thinking, it’s still possible to make it.
You hardly see any footage of successful flights, so that means that one can be under the impression that this happen often. Well it does not.
Now, I wanna be a pilot when I’m older. And my biggest fear is just the plane randomly deciding not to work and falls out of the sky.

If one thinks about fan blades, jets could be thought of as 'prop planes'. They serve pretty much the same purpose. I realize that props and jets are as different as apples and oranges, but the focus on fan blades and their importance here made me think of it.

The voice of commentator or the documentarist is admirable
the first one was a clutch. If they didn't up engine power to get out of the dive no people on that flight would be here today.
Oh gosh, this is so sad to watch. Such airline disasters, wherever they occur, are always heart wrenching & heart breaking to hear about & to see via tv. All human lives are worthy and precious, no matter where one hails from. I sometimes wonder, what countless souls have thought about, during such fearful moments & prior to such catastrophic events. For most on these flights, their last few minutes of their life. To all who have died, may you all rest in eternal peace & my condolences i send, to their nearest & dearest. They will never be forgotten, but always remembered & honoured.
All human lives?... Murderers, pedophiles and rapists exist you know, are their lives precious too? 😂
That US-Bangla flight...holy crap.
Firstly: R.I.P Every one on those flights, and may God watch under their beloved ones
Secondly, Thanks for the cases.
Thirdly: This is sad but it helps prevent it all from happening again. they didn´t pass away in vain they are now part of the improvements in aviation, making it the safest way to travel for us these days!

They could go around……..
@@dew9103 they were to low on speed and alt. So a a go around could not have hapend and alsi due to the panic
@@AlternateCesarT According to a 5 minutes video I watch, pilots can go around all the way until the thrust reversers are set. Look at Asiana 214 for example. A similar crash where the pilots are too high during the approach and then at the last seconds were way to low. They didn't make it but they could if they go around a few seconds earlier.
The panic in the cockpit really start when the EGPWS sounds. They should've gone around earlier.
I live about 45 minutes away from the airport where UPS 1354 happened, and I remember when I first heard about it. First thought: Those poor souls on board, RIP. Second thought: Wonder when the documentary will come out.

I love these stories
Format of presentation is to engage the viewer with episode after episode and again and again missing the conclusion from the investigations. Would like to see things wrapped up at each end before starting new scenarios.
Yes that was doing my OCD I had to stop watching and try to figure out what's going on with this video 📹.....

It's so relieving when a passenger talk about his / her experience in the flight
Why are all these landings still softer than RyanAir?
because these pilots are not trying to land hard
@@Alb410 😂😂😂
Ryanair land hard so as in case there is water on the runway so they break through it and don't hydroplane Ryan Air has an impeccable safety record unlike some that's because they're trained properly
Kllm... Hold my beer
Believe it or not, They actually made a butter landing once it's hella illegal bro
Can already tell its gonna be a good one 😉
Logan air plane pilots really did great.
They saved the plane.
The Indonesian plane should have returned back to the airport.
I think they would crash still...the nose dive happened climbing only at 5000ft. Now calculate the time they would have to circle the airport and land on opposite side of the runway. The MCAS was gonna doom them still
love the acoustic arrangement!

Really enjoyed this. Thank you
Why are these so addicting
same i think its because we like pyrotechnics
I know it's the safest travel, but the ones that crash are horrific, then when you think about how many close calls or bad weather, it's just plain scary. Add to that how some pilots react to emergencies and I'll stay on the ground, thanks.🙏
When you fight with the controls is when you fighting the autopilot, most likely, pilots must keep a crystal clear mind and think superfast and avoid the unwanted

That must have been a hell of a shock to come home to from work. "Darling, there's a private jet in our lounge..." #1stworldproblems
2nd person watching ! omg this s channel is so addictive
Ermeghrd!!
Why do you have to cut off every single one without showing the final conclusion of the investigation
Right? Ug.
Slightly concerning when a pilot forgets not only the runway he's supposed to be taking off from, but also the name of his plane...
Theyre human and fly many thousands of hours on different flights, planes and cities.
And you forget what you were looking for when you enter a room occasionally.
It happens, even to professionals on their job.
There should be a couple hundred ft. Of extra runway on every runway.
Some viewers report: "These all in one vids are so cool" Others, a little more tuned in realize these are just little teasers leaving off just when critical questions are posed. Presumably the intent here is to leave folks curious enough to see the full coverage that they'll get a "pay for" subscription, in some fashion to Smithsonian Channel so they can see any one of these episodes to completion. I do happen to have a subscription to be able to view the vids in full. I totally think these little "lost Leader" film clips Suck, big time.
Absolutely. They leave out a lot.
You know, if I'm so inclined I can just pirate those videos, or procure the information elsewhere. The video is exactly what it says on the tin, and I'm more than okay with that.
@@paulb47NYC What's wrong with you, man? You've had a problem and I proposed a different way to look at this situation. Me, I have no problem with these videos. The title is specifically "air crashes" and it delivers what it claims. I'm not proposing that you don't pay for the episodes that you'd like to watch in full - you can always do that after checking out if it's worth the money, but you made it sound like you feel the structuring of these episode excerpts is misleading or unfair.
You seem like one of those SJWs who are walking around all day looking for things to get upset at and feel victimized by.
@@olegkosygin2993 you got one of my time-slices already. That's all you get. You haven't earned more.
@@paulb47NYC You've taken the extra time to delete your comments, though, so apparently not ;)
You shouldn't act like royalty online when you're just a little chump who gets scared over random people judging you for insulting a stranger trying to help.

I always thought the best place to be is around the wings since the wing struts are the strongest part of the plane but it depends so much on the geometry of the incident. It seems the tail has a slightly better survival rate.
They did an EXCELLENT job on these shows. It's too easy to fall into the reality TV documentary and ruin the show (Shark Week) They put in just enough drama to compliment the facts instead of tower over them. I've never heard what the survivors or family members of those lost thought about the show.
Great comment lknanml! I think this series is just superb, with top notch writing, acting and the unseen star of the show, the narrator. He does a great job of setting the scene and amping up the excitement with his tone and pacing. Brilliant show!
Great content !
I think if you apply enough force to the yoke stick it disconnects autopilot also the dive wasn’t that violent and the fact they buttered the landing both pilots are really good
You gotta feel like the luckiest man alive to be the only survivor out of 50 on a crash like that😮 18:41
I ask how do you produce the show what type of prep what items do you hire use space of a perfesonal training flight simulator outlet?
I love the KC-135 episode
thank you for the upload! Subscribed!
Great episode
48:31 Oh, i see what you did there.
I had to look up the UPS to Birmingham because I didn’t remember hearing about it, and thought if it almost went down over I20/59 that close surely it would make the news.
Looking at a map of BHM, runway 18/36 coming in from the north would out it over highway 79 close to Tarrant. So I’m guessing that was the “busy highway”. Not an accurate statement I can assure you.
From the south you’re RIGHT next to that interstate and I’ve definitely watched a gridlock of cars in my many times in and out of BHM. I don’t really remember clocking 79.
As for hills/embankments we’re in the Appalachian foothills, so our mountains are just rolling hills to anyone out west, but the area itself is almost never flat. Kind of amazed they were even able to engineer enough of it for an airport. I haven’t paid attention as a passenger but my guess would be there may very well be a large hill on approach, large enough to cause issues at that height.
It literally has one terminal with three concourses. It’s small. Technically it has customs, but aside from the 1% flying private, I can’t imagine what international traffic it gets. I actively choose to book international flights straight out of ATL and get a ride there because that 30 minute plane ride for the convenience of not driving adds a stupid amount to the ticket (at least it used to, I haven’t been out of the country in a few years).
Fair guess at night there’s not much traffic at all besides freight when it comes to heavys. You’d be able to see that from 79 I’m willing to bet. Can’t believe it wasn’t major news.
God to think they were seconds from the runway. So close to landing safely.
The others too who were less than a mile from airport. The workers could even see the flames from the crash.
Poor video complication. It has all the crashes but cuts short the findings so you don't find out what happened (lucky I've seen the actual series).
25:42 Those trim wheels, wow, they're like sawblades.
Just casual MCAS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They are auto now but can be operated manually if they are in op. They help keep the pitch balanced a cording to weight position to keep balance for level flight.
@@sharoncassell9358 I am aware of the use of Trim
Having been a crew chief on a kc-135 tanker only windows are in the nose. Misleading showing the crew members looking ou a portal window seeing #1 and #2 engines missing.
WHERE ARE THEY MASON
must be horryfying being the only survivor on a crash, Rip all the people who died🕊🪦
The Bangladesh plane recreation had great acting from the control tower
