125 of 175 people died. The plane would have been landed successfully if both pilots weren't battered and bruised from warding off terrorist with an axe. The pilot still survived, and most of the passengers would have too if only they hadn't inflated their life jackets too soon. You can watch the documentary on here if you want
nope nope nope this is stupid the pilot could of glided his way to a safe spot u know all pilots must learn how to land in a emergancy if out of gas gas i not needed plane wings and flaps will help stay in the air for a mighty long time
do uguys know that ,capt leul abate was his third time that he got hijakd and,he still flie 4 ethiopian air and,he is as well training capt on b757 and,b767!
RIP everyone who died on this flight, the pilot did an incredible job landing that plane given the circumstances and everyone wouldve survived had that stupid hijacker not been so stubborn and allowed them to refuel
not everyone, there were around 50 survivors, most died because they inflated their life jackets in the plane and drowned when they got trapped to the ceilinfg =(
flymarco2... no definetely not true lol.. some people inflated their life jackets inside the plane which trapped them in and they unfortunately drowned..and im sure some people died cuz of the impact as well
wasnt this the plane that was hijjack about 13 yrs ago so poss to be going to Australia or somthing i remmber reading about this long time ago in oh papers over here in Australia stuip terrorists forgotten to check if they had anof fuel lol
the pilot was still flying the plane while the hijackers were telling him where to go .. i watched it on Air Crash Investigation . . the co-pilot was struck on the back of the head and sent into the fuselage
yea i watched it on "Air Crash Investigation", all the hijackers were killed and most people died because they inflated their lifejackets before they got out of the plane! Even thought the Pilot told them not to.
why would people die because of lifejackets? they are too big to allow them to exit? or maybe if the plane is full of water it traps them against the ceiling?
yes it traps them against the ceiling so they cannot get out .. thats why the pilot warned them not to open their lifejackets but the noise level (panic) stopped them from hearing him
could the water landing have gone better? if he leveled the plane before landing would it be a slightly smoother landing? because now, it seems the plane rolled to the left because of the loss of the left wing by water impact. the lift created by the remaining wing rolled the plane to the left.
its cases like these that make me wish i can open my eyes under water
It wouldn't have gone better if he leveled the plane. In fact, it (MIGHT) be worse
The reason why he did that was to use the wing to try and slow the plane down before it fully touched the water. That way, it would minimise the chaos caused by the crash.
i remember it was captain abate who crash landed dis aircraft in da islands nr seychelles...dis aircraft had been hijacked and yes dere were survivors...da pilot captain abate himself survived....and he still flies!
you are a piece of SCUM. i'd put the video of you when you die on youtube and i couldnt care care less when youtube delete my account - iit would be worth it. i hate (NOT ALL MUSLIMS cos i have loads of muslims mates whom i luv) radical muslims, but i'd love to watch them cut you're flippin head off you piece or trash. i bet you wouldnt bleed blood, cos u dont sound human to me. seeing the comments you're leaving. YOU ANGER ME! GET OFF YOUTUBE!!! it aint for fools.
they landed at a beach of an island between africa and madagascar. most people died because they inflated their lifewests when they were still in the air, though you are advised NOT to inflate them inside the aircraft. when the aircraft was filled with water they were unable to escape from the sinking plane. the pilot survived the accident, the hijackers did not... they broke out from prison and wanted to go to exile in australia...
52 people survied,including the pilot! it ran out of fuel because terrorist demanded the pilot to fly the plane to Australia. Unfortunalty, they did not have enough fuel onbord, so...*crash*
LOL in the picture of the safety manual it shows how if it lands on water it will float and the slides become little boats so u can go on them and sit down antil they come pic u up. i think they do it to relax the ppl instead of saying if u fall in water ur dead.
Actually, some Africans hijacked the plane because they had been imprisoned and tortured by their country. They wanted to go to Australia, but since there wasn't enough fuel to make it there, I guess they just didn't care if the plane crashed or not. The pilot warned them that they were running out of fuel.
WRONG! This was the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 961 which was hijacked on November 23, 1996 en route from Addis Ababa to Nairobi, by three Ethiopians (who happen to be Africans) seeking political asylum. The plane crashed in the Indian Ocean near Comoros after running out of fuel, killing 123 of the 175 passengers and crew on board.
imagine if this would have happened on houston river

"plane runs out of fuel due to hijacking and ditches into the water rather than crash on land"
he was at a trajectory where he wouldnt have made it too land, and if he had, it woulda been on people.
great pilot for trying to land it so close to the beach to help save lives
