The Smallest Mistakes That Led to Fatal Plane Crashes
A routine flight turns into a desperate struggle for survival when everything starts to go wrong. Pilots train for emergencies, but no amount of preparation can fully prepare them for what happens when systems fail, engines cut out, and critical mistakes pile up. This is the story of one of the most shocking aviation disasters in history—where a chain reaction of errors led to tragedy and changed the way we fly forever.
00:00 Missing over New York
When fog caused delays at JFK airport, circling aeroplanes ran dangerously low on fuel. For one craft it was too much: Avianca Flight 052 crashed, killing 73 people.
42:15 Deadly Crossroads
A plane carrying a group of children collided with a DHL cargo craft when an overstretched Zurich air traffic controller’s equipment failed. 71 people died in the crash.

I can watch this video on Google. Do better YouTube. World is full of intelligent people.
In the 2nd video, it's really pathetic and embarrassing, how one simple little thing, like a missing washer for a bolt, caused the malfunction and fire. It's also embarrassing, by the lack of common sense and intelligence, that these mechanics did not use some kind of ladder or raising device, to fix things properly that they couldn't reach, instead of them struggling to do the job correctly. So due to their negligent mindset, it would cause them to lose and/or improperly install parts, from what I could tell it looked like the mechanic was trying to screw something in at an angle, instead of straight in, like you're supposed to do, and operating under a "I don't give a crap attitude." I don't understand how there can be so many little things that can bring down an airplane, and kill people, and they continuously do not fix the problems, such as faulty maintenance, blocked pito tubes, and other things.
On the first clip I am going to be Trumpish, maybe he was a DEI hire before their were DEI hires.
Bubble levels were invented in 1661. Weight scales date back to 1770. The gyroscope has been in use since 1817. And we've long possessed the means and know-how to build a perfectly level tarmac.
There is NO reason whatsoever in this day and age that pilot calculations should be the sole determining factor of whether a plane is safely loaded regarding total weight and proper weight distribution.
Why is it that we have the tools and ability to cross-check and verify, but we don't utilize it?
There's NO excuse EVER for ANY aircraft to leave the ground improperly and unsafely loaded.
You CANNOT run out of fuel, yet "experienced" airline captains continue to do it. The one down in the Everglades did the same thing: circled until the engines cut out.
@YouTube stop censoring the videos
None of these Accidents had to do with New York
I could watch these kinds of disasters all day long 😮. Thanks for the upload!
Where is everyone going?? In the last days people will be running to and fro.🙏 That Bible prophecy is surely being fulfilled..
1st!
