The crash of Copa Airlines Flight 201, left investigators mystified. It was difficult to unpack how a passenger plane simply dissapeared and investigators investigated numerous possibilities, always seeming to come up short of a solid explanation. Data from the plane’s black box continued to puzzle investigators further, the flight recorder plotted data that would seem to indicate the plane performing an impossible maneuver shortly before it crashed. Lets delve deeper into that mystery today as we look at the events of Copa Airlines Flight 201.

CORRECTION NOTICE: It appears I made a rather annoying mistake with the date of this accident. At 1:06 is mentioned that the year of this accident was 1996, it was actually 1992. I'm not sure how I completely messed that up. My apologies Update: the two seconds or so of that info has been trimmed out.

But you can't tell which way it's going, Pilots were being told the plane was rolling left, which would feel indistinguishable from the plane rolling right which is what was actually happening. pilots are trained to ignore these forces as they are highly misleading for example pitching up/down feels identical to acceleration/deceleration. Reacting to these ambiguous forces has caused many plane crashes. Also, I guarantee you that there are some attitude changes you did not feel as they were too smooth. If the pilot handling is a bit rough you'll feel it but if it's nice and gentle you can look out the window and be surprised to see the ground as the aircraft is banked over 30 degrees and felt nothing.

Interestingly, a British documentary filmed the whole process of the investigation for a documentary on how plane crashes are investigated. It was this specific filming that helped them find the wire was the cause, when the investigators asked to review the film the cameraman had taken. One of the investigators noticed the loose wire and when they followed it up they realised this was the cause! Frustratingly, I can't find it on the web now, but I managed to a couple of years ago. I remember thinking how vulnerable the planes I travelled on might be, every time I flew, if a loose wire could cause that crash!

Hyper tension isn't what they say it is.
Contra the suggestion in the video, you cannot use a spirit level (or a plumb line or whatever) as a backup to the artificial horizon. In a coordinated turn (which all pilots are trained for), the net acceleration is straight through the bottom of the airplane regardless of the attitude of the airplane. And it's that net acceleration that a level would show. A gyroscope is used because it maintains its attitude to the ground regardless of any acceleration experienced by the airplane, which is what you have to have for an artificial horizon.

@@maxfullerton5228 Same thing. When the acceleration vector goes straight through the bottom of the plane ("down" for people sitting in the plane), it doesn't matter which way the ground is. Water will stay in glasses, pendulums will not swing (any more than they otherwise would), and people will be able to walk in the aisles. If you have ever taken a small bucket full of water and swung it in a circle about you, you'll have noticed that the water doesn't spill out, even if you swing it up and over your head. Conversely, if your acceleration vector goes some other direction, for instance in a car on a curve, all those things mentioned above will take the new net acceleration vector as "down". So water will spill out of cups if you turn too sharply in a car. This effect can also be seen in NASA's "Vomit Comet", where they put the plane into a ballistic curve to get a net acceleration of 0, otherwise known as weightlessness. In that situation, water will float around the cabin (in blobs, because of surface tension) even when the ground is still below the bottom of the plane.

Absolutely - See the video of test pilot Bob Hoover, flying a barrel roll one handed, while pouring a jug of iced tea into a glass with his other hand. A spirit level would obviously remain level throughout the entire barrel roll! Thus, a spirit level is utterly useless as a horizon reference. (As, like the tea in his glass, the spirit level would remain centred throughout the barrel roll, even at 90° bank or fully inverted). The narrator may be thinking of the turn & slip indicator used in some non-instument aircraft. That uses a gyro in a spring loaded, single axis gimble to indicate the rate of turn in the yaw axis and a spirit level to indicate turn coordination (slipping sideways in the turn). The spirit level is in no way a horizon reference, except when the aircraft is stationary on the ground! I believe some people say they can fly in IMC with a turn & slip indicator, altimeter, & airspeed indicator. I'm not sure if that's really possible but in any case they are not using the spirit level as a horizon reference.

A spirit level would not indicate where the horizon is. There is one, or something similar, in most planes. It is used to gauge the balance of forces in a turn. When the bubble (or ball) is in the center, the forces are balanced, no matter the orientation of the plane, (in positive g's). The plane could be up-side down in a spiral, or some other such circumstance.

The strange thing is that they didn’t use their standby ADI. Maybe the captain and first officer was focused on their ADI. Also what is your favorite Soviet Plane? Mine is Tupolev TU-134. It has a glass nose which is my favorite thing about Soviet planes.

The fact that they didn't use the standby ADI puzzles me; it's right there in front of them and as they were struggling to -- in their minds -- level the plane before they rolled it upside they would have clearly seen it displaying the correct position of their aircraft. My theory is that because the pilots believed that the Captain's ADI was on an Auxiliary Gyro then what they were seeing on their ADIs was correct and the standby ADI was inoperative. Without the CVR we'll never know.

I know regarding the Copa 737, they were flying at night in pitch darkness with no ground reference. The standby ADI was there for them.

@@70slandshark47 I asked this question to a former British Airways Captain who has flown everything up to the 747 including the 737, DC-10, A320, but not the Concorde. He told me that was the old procedure of dealing with Vertical Gyro failures and Copa’s procedure was perhaps a newer way. The plane was owned by Britannia Airways until 2 months before the crash and my guess is that Britannia was still using the old procedure and when it was acquired by Copa they still had yet to modify the Vertical Gyro switches on this plane.
Here in Panama not much happens, but I remember distinctly an accident,about 18 yrs ago. An avianca(I think) plain departed from Tocumen, as it passed over the city the motors were making an INSANLY loud noise and flying VERY low. A lot of people saw it from owr windows. It crached in the forest. I'm amazed they did not go back to the airport having that creepy loud noise.

Brings back memories - my first ever flight was on Brittania (on their previous livery, but a 737-200), then flew with them multiple times on other planes with that livery (esp 757s later). They were quite good for a holiday charter airline.
This hits close to home because I flew that type airplane and flew in and out of Panama many times. It looks to me that the inversion happened so fast that they didn’t have time to focus on the standby artificial horizon. It is unfortunate that they flipped that switch in the wrong direction. It emphasizes the importance of checklists and not to get in a rush. I always said nothing happens in an emergency situation in the 737 so fast except for a fire that the crew doesn’t have plenty of time to deal with the emergency.
Phew, for a second I thought I was going crazy and the ADI wasn't the artificial horizon until you mentioned it!

I was thinking, how can you not feel what the plane is doing. I have only flown a plane once and that was assisted by an instructor. It was a very little plane. But I could feel all the little twitches, wiggles and especially the banking turns. It was daylight so I could always back what I felt with what I could see. Loosing spacial orientation can happen. Unless I am the pilot, which is highly unlikely I won't be flying if there is a choice.

Woops flipped the wrong switch.... Everyone's dead. Safest form of travel.
How can you not notice the artificial horizon is bugged, and just blindly follow it? I think these pilots should bring one of them leveling rulers with the bubble in it, and use that instead.
That's inaccurate. They've also operated embraer jets in their fleet.

Do they still currently operate Embraer? I really like the Embraer aircraft overall. But here in Guatemala where I'm currently at, the aircraft that usually goes between here and Panama is a 737-800 I believe. It's some model of 737 new generation, 7/8/900. But I think -800. I'll look up their fleet and see what else they fly, that'd be interesting.

Wait, what..?😮
on the same day when the plane crash the 13 episode of sailor moon was air.
It might be more reverent to say ‘souls’ instead of occupants. I could be wrong, good content nonetheless. Thanks
Your voice is very sweet.
Just because that model had some issues doesn’t mean that every 737 has that issue
Thank heavens we're back to the aviation content 💜
Unknowingly Flying Upside Down, how is this possible? You feel it.....
👍
How do you fly upside down without knowing? 🤨

To this day, I don't know why pilots don't hang a plumb line in the cockpit.

When an aircraft is banking slowly with no visual input, the change in your inner ear isn't rapid enough for your brain to interpret, that's how pilots can end up at 30-40 degree banks without noticing and as soon as they bring the wings level quickly, their brains freak out and think they've banked 30-40 degrees in the OTHER direction. It's why instrument flying is SO fucking critical in IMC flying, you literally cannot trust your body.

Flying is one of the most unsafe ways of travel today,if the pilots are not drunk, no bugs in pieto tube,bird strike....etc.as safe as driving,not really.ill believe that when a car wreck kills 200 plus people,and scatters wreckage over a vast area.You are ignorant if you think flying is safe.Just within last month,suicidal pilot crashed a plane in china.I guess that is safe to you.👎😎

You should do a short video about how it's even possible for these pilots to not realize they're banking, rolling, climbing/diving. You'd think they'd be able to feel the relative positions because of gravity and momentum of your body. Also why isn't there a liquid horizon instrument. They operate on gravity and don't fail.

Spatial disorientation and centrifugal force. As for the liquid device, it simply doesn’t work. Such a device could not distinguish between straight and level flight and an upside down 1g dive. Also turbulence is a thing. Edit: Those devices works by effect of gravity. On aircraft, it will only work if it is going at constant velocity and altitude. Any changes in these two factors will result in malfunctioning of level bubble. Therefore they are useless, because it is impossible to have 100% steady attitude and velocity.
