I feel for the technician who last worked on that prop. The feeling of knowing that you last touched it and despite you doing everything right (per the manual), the prop broke and several people were killed, that has to be a horrible feeling.

Yeah, you know she means it when she says "hold on, this is going to be rough". I feel like flight attendants not telling people of the seriousness of the situation makes them less prepared to save themselves and others after the crash.

Man for a hospital doctor to say he has dealt with so much physical devastation and trauma, it really does speak even more volumes of how bad this was and what the people went through that day. It’s so sad that everyone originally survived the crash itself but the fire was what caused the majority of deaths. Even the captain would have been alive today most likely had it not had been for the fire.

I know Amy was so happy to have had those midnight talks with him about life, piloting and the confusion and pain inherent to it. Verses his last words being on the cockpit recorder and from the mouth of the firefighter who rescued him… Life is so precious…

Dang! I legit started tearing up when the townspeople were talking about what they saw that day.

How tragic that everybody survived initial impact but were killed in the subsequent fire. :( The pilots did an amazing job and how incredible for the FO to return to work even after 50+ surgeries by his estimate and years of having to constantly recover from that flight. Hearing the long term devastation on the passengers, first responders, doctor and townsfolk was very sad. Even if you survive the crash, you have to live with it for the rest of your life and life must never be the same after that.

I was flying for ASA when this accident occurred....The NTSB ruled the crash WAS the fault of Hamilton Standard when the prop blade they overhauled broke off causing an imbalance strong enough to tear the engine off it's mounts. An earlier ASA fatal crash inbound to Brunswick Ga, in which a Congressman and an Astronaut were killed, was ALSO the fault of Hamilton Standard when they changed an integral component of the prop blade changing assembly, and never told anyone of the change....that part failed causing all blades on that engine to go to a flat pitch making it impossible for that plane to fly. Massive lawsuits paid by HS!!

@@CarbonGlassMan Multiple problems with your concept, though. Cameras, no matter how small, would add weight that the plane would have to compensate for (especially if you want enough to monitor the entire exterior of the plane, seeing as engines aren't the only place that problems can occur). Also, if you want them to be able to see the exterior of the plane, rather than pointing out at the sky around the plane, that's going to bugger up the streamline of the plane's exterior something awful. There'd be no way to have them flush to the plane's exterior. That means it might cause even _more_ danger, as it would create drag, and make it harder for the plane to cut through the air smoothly. Plus that's just creating more things to potentially be torn away by strong winds, passing birds, etc., which is just a bad thing to have.

It's so unfortunate that the very thing about jet fuel that helps planes fly (the flammability) is the same thing that makes it so dangerous. And the very element that we need to survive- oxygen- is the very same that fire needs to keep burning. The crew of Flight 529 did an incredible job saving those who survived. It was a good landing considering the circumstances, and it was only the inherent flammability of jet fuel that took people's lives.

I was interested in the fatigue issue with the prop blade(s) and the NDT performed by the technician. Its a pity it wasnt expounded more fully.

I agree with the gentleman with the suspenders. I'll pay more for the extra safety.

I need a rocket scientist to answer something for me. As a retired Gas Turbine tech in the US NAVY, I dealt with JP-5 every single day. Gas Turbine engines will burn anything. Some adjustments to fuel system components are needed based on the specific gravity of any type of fuel, but they will burn anything. Primarily, in the NAVY, DFM (Diesel Fuel Marine... or diesel fuel) is used for propulsion and electrical generation Gas Turbine engines. JP-5 is literally a slightly higher grade of diesel. How is it MORE EXPENSIVE? The NAVY uses it because of its very high flash point (thus, it is safer to use and store in mass quantities).

I do recall ice pellets and fog coming out of the a/c system numerous times while heading to Miami during the summer months. According to the flight attendant it was a common occurence due to the high humidity. This was about the same time as the JetBlue accident in the everglades.

I believe The military was working a solution for post crash fires for both Helicopters and planes, there was a chemical solution that turns jet fuel into gel, but the issue that remain was how to trigger that mechanism, upon vibration or manually through a switch but as this case showed that the pilot were unconscious, and if they triggered that in there descent that would have limited their chances of a hard landing. That Pilot saved a lot of lives.

Ugh, thank you. I love how there's so many people in the comments ranting about the ATC who missed making the call for emergency rescue services during all of this. If he _did_ call, he would've been making the call when they still thought they were going to be able to divert to an airport, which means that it's likely to be the on-call emergency crews for the airport, and even if the airport didn't have their own teams, that would still leave the local fire-and-rescue at or on their way to the airport the plane was originally aiming for, not to a random rural field. If they'd already arrived at the airport, they might have already started prepping (affixing hoses to hydrants and the like), and would've had to pack it all up and relocate, still burning time. It's not like fire trucks can teleport.

27:39.. bro is a punk for real!! You managed to get out and didnt even try to get one person out, knowing what you knew!!!!

My first flight and second flight was on a turbo prop like this but with much less space are the only 2 I have traveled on a plane and was my last. The first flight was a buzz and enjoyed it. However the return flight I had a bad feeling about it with I think good reason. Waiting for the plane home we were delayed a couple of hours to finally hear that the plane had malfunctions and we needed a replacement. Got on board of the bus instead of the terminal to head out to the 'new' plane but on the way the bus door at the rear right failed so they got a worker on the bus (there was only 3 including the driver) to hold the door shut, 30ish seconds later another door fails and opens up so now they have the 2 workers holding doors shut and the driver driving. 30secs later the third door sprung open and they then had to get some random fella from his job to hold that door shut and luckily we made it before the last door opened up. Thought it was over there and then to get onto the plane for them to have intercom and communications issues which started to have me pretty worried.. Unsure of the flight path back but we went across mountains and the turbulence was terrible.. I threw up in their garden when I finally got out the doors.. Didn't mean too but was crook as a dog after that.. Mix of nerves especially as I was the one next to the emergency exit and was told by the flight attendants how to open that door in an emergency sort of freaked me out.. I had my hands ready the whole flight....

The ATC who would've made the call would likely have been alerting the airport's own onsite rescue services, not 911, because the initial plan was to divert to an airport. They're airport personnel, not offsite rescue. This means they still would've been reliant on a call placed to actual emergency services. Even if the ATC had called 911, they would still have initially been directed to the airport, not some rural field. That meant packing up if they'd already started readying hoses and the like, and getting remobilized _after_ getting word of the new crash site. Either way, the cost of time would still likely have not been enough to stop the fire before it started, and people would still have had to jump through flames to get clear of the wreckage in case it exploded. It also takes considerable time to put out a fire, so the likelihood of injury (particularly to the pilot, who was caught in a flashover from the punctured oxygen tank behind him) would still be inevitable.

Just replace the prop blade instead of repairing it!

There is one thing wrong with the video. If you have a dead engine you do not turn the plane towards that dead engine as it will go into a spiral dive, in your computer simulation you should go to starboard not port. I saw a Ventura bomber with only one engine working as a kid of about 10 years old do that, no one came out alive. An F86 Sabre Jet was in the landing pattern and he slipped in front of the Ventura and the pilot of the Ventura turned to port, his dead engine, not wanting to hit the F86. The Ventura spun into the ground Thought you might like a like a bit of info to make a similar video a bit more authentic. VERY good video found it quite gripping.
