  • David gleave is my dad i belfatgirl101 is my sister you rock dad

  • david gleave is my dad

  • IAM REALLY INTERESTED TO WATCH THIS AIR CRASH VIDEOS, BUT WITH SAD....JUST PRAY FOR THEM ...

  • The DC-10 is one of the best airplanes in the World! It´s a long time flying workhorse for the most airlines in the World.

  • I wouldn't step foot on a DC-10.

    Read the book "Rise and fall of the DC-10"

    and you won't ever fly on one again.

    Peace.

  • The DC-10 is a flying hunk of just waiting to crash junk! The L-1011...FLAWLESS!

  • i usally love NG videos.. but this is nowhere near as good as Discovery's mayday.

  • dc-10s arent junk and nowerdays are claimed one of the safest planes in service anyway thats not the only plane with a cargo door error.

  • you are correct, few peoples know that this acft had pass 2 X by FAA's certification and is one of the safest plane. many peolpe talking about things without corrects informations.

  • @class37trash dc-10 are remove from jobs cause of many crash reported

    they are NOT the safest planes.

  • @egboypalaboy i never said thay are the safest planes im saying modifacations made by the manafracuers has made it alot safer

  • My mate use to fly a dc-10 he said they was a pile of junk so move to another airline & thats a fact!

  • why the heck do DC-10s get holes???

  • Comment removed

  • When I saw how many DC-10s had crashed I was afraid to board one

  • @kevintheartist We saw many DC-10 crash is because at that time, DC-10 are very popular and many of them were in service, so the chance of seeing them crash is also higher than other types of planes. The design of DC-10 basically was sound and safe

    By the way , no need to afraid of that because most of the DC-10 nowadays had already change into cargo planes! ^^

  • Well at that time i didn't realized that most DC-10s weren't in passanger service.

  • MD's aren't bad! only the DC Fleet suck!

  • DC 10 suck!!!!

  • they don't suck but they are unsafe.

  • DC 10 planes are flying graveyards to some people. I mean ive never been on one but i hear that their not very safe indeed. Turbulence is bad on a DC 10 according to passengers at least.

  • BURN DC AND MDs!

  • @darkshield4 :

    Affects on an aicraft caused by turbulance in the air are only relative to the planes mass and aerodynamics - so any other planes this size and shape (tristar, 767, ect) are affected just the same in turbulance.

  • @darkshield4 My grandfather was on a crash of one in spain, luckily he survived

  • @darkshield4 that's just bullshit.

  • @darkshield4 I'd love to say: DC-10 is Flying Coffin!!! hahaha

  • @darkshield4 American planes are just bad. MDs are worse than Boeings, but boeings are still bad

  • @darkshield4 you're right! The amount of crashes the've been involved in!

  • somebody said theirs a hole in the plane

  • it was Turkish airway that had a hole on it, the flight attendance got sucked out, and the plane crash

  • Dc8, DC9, are the safe ones

  • I love the McDonnell Douglas twinjets, but I've always been weary of their widebodies and this is why.

  • can you actually learn how to type?

  • i remember onc e,we were taking off from lax 2 new york we have 2 come back cause the b727 had engine problem,we chang plane guess what,it was the DC 10 every one was quite but,as soon we landed NY every one claps,the passanger next 2 me was,checking the engine during all flight,those were the days when DC 10 had engine problems!

  • not funny

  • i got sucked out

  • I watch this before in National Geographic

  • is that like a foreign nation, where is it??

  • The engineers made something much more complicated. They made a aircraft fly. How they failed in made a cargo door?

  • A passage from the Fight Club movie:

    "Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one."

  • I hate this

  • Hate what? The crash? Or that the video is pointless, huh???

  • It happened on two DC-10.

  • what channel

    is air crash in vestigation or is it seconds from disaster please respond

  • National Geographic and Discovery Chanell

  • National Geographic Channel and Discovery Channel

  • National Geographic Chanel

  • Look for it under the alternate title "Mayday" as well. It depends on where you live in the world.

  • That's horrible

  • Where is the full video.If you cant add full video dont post it.

  • dude it is a trailer

  • Mc donald Douglas where shear greedy, putting something as common as money first instead of the lives of passengers. They should put safety on top of the list all the time. Most shocking of all is they new about it from the beginning and never even bothered to change it. Thank god they went out of business in 1996, shocking thing is I flew on a DC-10, I believe the last passenger one still flying owned by my travel

  • Is that what caused the explosion of TWA800?

  • TWA 800 is a 747 not a DC-10 they are made by two totally different companies.

  • TWA flight 800 went down because of a center fuel tank explosion.

  • How did that happen?

  • The jet fuel was heated into a fuel-air mix by the Air Conditioning units under the center fuel tank. Then as the plane climbed, a faulty wire in the fuel probe caused a short circuit, which ignited the fuel vapor which exploded and killed about 230 people.

  • Wow- I understand those passengers were mostly children.

  • ..............................­..........

  • How do you feel about that?

  • You are a NTSB parrot.

    A missile destroyed it and Clinton made sure it was covered up under the guise of National Security! Now we have a huge terror war simply because Clinton refused to deal with the problem and just focus on re-election. It was an election year...TWA800....

  • Both of our theories could have brought TWA 800 down, we will never know. I think that a center fuel tank explosion brought it down, and you think that a missile brought it down. I'm fine with what you think, but I think it was a center fuel tank explosion. People have different views about the world you know!

  • Well I saw it on the news the witnesses who saw it, from over 6000 miles away the other side of the world. The next day the 'Government' said it was not a missile. 2+2=4.......

  • The Answer is The door blew of as the lock of the door isn't fully locked.

  • The Answer is The door blew of as the lock of the door isn't fully locked.

  • I remember this... the captain was Bryce McCormick I think. I remember an old documentary about 12 years ago, where he described the incident, saying they don't ever get everything clean after building a jet, but give it one good depresserization and it will.... and it was before the Turkish crash I believe...

  • Is this the one with the rudder problem, or was that USAir 427?

  • The rudder one was USAir 427 and United 585. This one was a flaw in the cargo door design for the DC10

  • nice

  • i want the whole episode

  • The crash years after the AA incident (this one,not Flight 191) is the fourth worst disaster in aviation history.

  • Wasn't that a Turkish Airlines DC-10 flying out of Paris in 1974?

  • there was two an american airlines one in 1972 and the turkish airlines in 1974

  • yeah i think it is?

  • is this a new air crash investigation episode
