  • Terrorism can be defeated and we must defeat terrorism. Terrorism was defeated in Sri Lanka.It is now a proven fact. So never say that it cannot be defeated. It is out dated theory.

  • Great Job Pilots.

  • those guys definitley deserved the awards..fair play to them that was an epic landing and the team work was incredible

  • Ah, great job FAA, 600+ people died 'cause of this, but the fact that losing all hydrolics is infrequent makes it okay to drop the idea of PCA? Then why have oxygen masks... or life vests?!? Why bother with any safety measures to the people in the plane with that kind of attitude!

  • Comment removed

  • welll that is smart. we are going to make commercial aircraft capable of avoiding being shot down while they fly into some more towers.

  • @mard420 they still cannot jam those 20mm cannons found on most fighter planes. Guess how many HE/IN rounds you need to down a commercial plane.

  • @Matracokura LOL, so true, so true, my bad.

  • Terrorists failed !!

  • The only thing I'm missing in this otherwise brilliant documentation is a sentence like: "The terrorists have been arrested later on, one by another. They're rotting in prison now for the crimes they have committed for the rest of their lifes."

  • 0:37 Wasn't that the person/pilot who helped the throttle controls in the Sioux City DC-10 crash?

  • @AirCanada04 Correct. Denny Fitch was a United check pilot dead heading between Denver and Chicago when 232 lost the hydraulics. He went to the cockpit to help and was accepted by the crew. He could work with the two throttles easier than Capt. Al Haynes or the co-pilot because the throttle lever on the exploded engine 2 was frozen and in the middle of the two other throttle levers. As such, the other two pilots could only work one throttle each.

  • hmmmmmmmmmmmmm 9/11/03?

  • They were so lucky the second missile didn't hit them.They would have been roasted barbecue on Iraqi soil. lol

  • My dildo was lost in this plane, what the fuck DHL?

  • @SodomGomorrahWaDC Are you serious. You have got to be the most heartless soul in the world.

  • @Blazy9 Dude, it was a $500, inflatable, squirting, horsecock-shaped dildo. How pissed would you be when they don't deliver it? I bought it because my horse had recently divorced me and refused to have intercourse with me.

  • @SodomGomorrahWaDC I know you're trolling, don't even bother.

  • @Blazy9 Love you too.

  • @SodomGomorrahWaDC i know it really shouldn't have, but that made me laugh XD

  • These Pilots Have HUGE Cojones! (balls of steel!)(Courage!) These guys are MEN among Men! ...The terrorists are a bunch Of pussy's, Cowards who hide they're faces behind rags to commit they're cowardly acts on un-armed civilians! Why didn't they fire they're antique missile at a fully armed Apachee or Blackhawk helicopter that could fight back?....COWARDS!

  • DHL best cargo airline ever ! ! !

  • It's ironic that the only plane that successfully landed under these conditions had no passengers (excluding the crew, of course).

  • I bet those terrorists were pretty angry when they found out the plane landed safely!

  • If it has wings, these guys can fly it.

  • The P.C.A is impressive, but on the DHL plane it still might not have helped because the fuel could have leaked out or the wing could have broken off. Still, good thing it didn't!

  • unbelivably history I've ever heard...realy

  • Comment removed

  • i see a B5 stand :D 4:03

  • If I couldn't land the aircraft i would smash it at the terrorist

  • this is not an investigation, america bring out your investigators and tell us why there was a fire on the wing

  • One of the ATCs was pretty hot, and the copilot looked alot like van dam.

  • Pilot was ex-Sabena, now Brussels Airlines. The best! :)

  • Doesn't matter how many times I watch this - it's truly inspirational, I can fly a plane - and probably figure out some unusual circumstances to make it back to a field, but these guys simply did everything perfectly. One movement of those throttle levers +/- 1 or 2mm incorrectly could have (at any given time in their recovery or approach) resulted in an uncontrollable stall, bank angle, or dive.

    These guys did it all perfectly - basically what the PCA software does, but with zero programming.

  • Comment removed

  • THAT HAVE BALLS OF STEEL!!! but i think if i were lamding safery and again danger of bomb iam kill myselff XD

  • THAT HAVE BALLS OF STEEL!!!

  • Mind blowing, Hats off to the crew.

    Also would like to add that the captain's communication style & appearance is very much similar to that of "BORAT".

  • Everyone thumbs up! 1:32 Couple of gays hugging and getting ready to take their turns on each other!

  • @kozeel no, fuck off.

  • @rogeramjet100 Send your sister so that I can fuck her off ;)

  • @kozeel don't have a sister, but i'm sure you'll be happy with my brother

  • @rogeramjet100 Your family full of gays?

  • @kozeel indeed it is. are you accpeting my invitation to join?

  • the military lobbyist takes wasn't appropriate

  • The pilot can only be Chuck Norris, to land a plane safe in a minefield.

  • good look at 2:58 singapore airlines are looking at it...

  • Two missiles were shot, where did the second one go?

  • @kozeel If you watch the whole thing, you'll find that it missed.

  • @vk45de Thank God it did miss .. or there would have no chance at all to save.

  • @kozeel One hit the plane and one went up your ass

  • @smilehappyme hmmmm .. hmm?

  • @kozeel im sorry someone hacked into my youtube account

  • @smilehappyme Well, that doesn't make my ass feel any better, it is still swollen because of that missile that went up my ass!

  • was the missile American made?

  • @mickety2001 hahaha I don't know, but in this documentary they said that the weapons and supplies belonged to the americans and were left out of sight and security.. Obviously they took the weapons from the army..

  • its impossible to defeat terrorisme... no its not.. get ride of all muslims and the world would be a better place..

  • @saltoft Muslims aren't bad. I have a good friend who is a muslim. Don't generalise. It's the extremists that are bad.

  • @saltoft You are mistaken. I'm not a Muslim but I can tell you that terrorists are using Islam to cover their slaughter.

  • brilliant pilots

  • in this instance the first officer spoke up and the capitan listened! It was team work at the greastest. I think PCA programs should be installed on all commercial aircraft, but as with politics, things change only when either pressure or great $ is in the mix.

    As far as extremist, I have no idea as a human how someone could shoot down a plane, or kill some innocent people. It is the dark side of humanity and true evil. Terrorism is for the weak really, not the strong.

  • ALLA HU AKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAR HAHAHAHA.....NONSENSE....

  • the truly faithful don't "kill for god" -- hypocrites do

    it is an exercise in faith to be a servant of god, and (nothing more than) an exercise in ego to be a ruler of man

  • I just realized how incredibly human being is a genius creature , fighting till the last minute of its death for survival. i really commend those crew who made it possible under such a stressfull environment. I took may hat off guys !! Good bless you and your family

  • DHL ! They deliver!

  • @Ixionic Mail on time every time. :P

  • @Ixionic lmao - best comment

  • Wait! so they didnt do the calculations before the testing? What idiots...wasting our money!

  • i swear that terrorist at 5:00 is wearing timbalands....

  • 2:30 AC-130 droping flairs look very nice

  • @Hyjal100 thats a c-17 not a ac-130

  • @JrGuacamoles ok sry then xD

  • @JrGuacamoles ignore him call of duty fanboys think any large cargo plane is an AC-130

  • @kopper101 i really dont mind , as long as he knows its not a ac-130

  • Next time when airplanes get bigger with better tech, everyone will be trained to parachute as last chance to bail out. This increase eye witnesses since air travel is a norm nowadays. Everyone on air is fragile and disaster can happen in 1 move, travelling on air is much more risky than on land/sea. Many many countless accidents had happen after the invention of airplanes.

  • lucky pilots :)

  • @ziddiasim Skillful pilots*

  • crazyyy shit

  • Thanks for uploading.

  • wow that day was on my b day i hate iraq man the marines should kill them

  • Without the 'oxygen' of the french reporters the islamic terrorists would probably not attacked the plane...NO publicity should be offered to terrorists....these journalists bear responsibily!!!

  • @macbrack You know nothing about Muslim extremism if you think that the attack would have not been carried out if no one was there. In only your own mind were they second-guessing themselves and possibly considering not doing this cowardly act. The publicity was achieved in the video anyway, they didn't need journalists.

  • one hell of a job by pilots!great!peace

  • Major BS alert. The accents in this video would be the same as if a civil war confederate General from Alabama spoke with a fast New Joisy (Jersey) accent. Totally laughable except for the gullible masses.

  • im an iraqi native. i remember being told this story when i fled the country. our flight from baghdad to dubai was cancelled and we had to head back home for that day, only to return 2 days later for the replacement flight.

    on the way back from the airport, the cab driver told us the story of a dhl pilot who was hit by a missile and still managed to land the plane, only to end up in a mine field. i couldnt believe it

    great job by the pilot. terrorism in iraq is routine today, thanks to the war

  • A-hole terrorists, They'll stop at nothing to ruin things for everyone!

  • 2:31 Lol is that an AC-130?

  • @nativus222 lol was either an ac130 or something like the hercules ( military cargo plane)

    its exactly like the one on some cod mission nyways lmao XD

  • @nativus222 C5 Galaxy.

    Note the 4 jet engines instead of 4 turboprob engines.

  • @nativus222 It's a Galaxy i believe, they transport Tanks and other Aircraft to the middle east

  • Excellent team work!! Shows you shouldn't just accept the end is inevitable.

    As for terrorism, yeah the dude is right, terrorism and coward-ism go hand in hand and will never go away.

    Most of these terrorists hang onto a belief or religion as an excuse to sate a blood lust. Sad isn't it? I mean what will they tell their grand children? "I intentionally shot down an unarmed plane? Still, guys who treat women as second class citizens can't be expected to be much in life.

  • it's understandable singapore airlines and qantas airlines need the infrared red jamming system becoz indonesia is a hostile country full of islamic terrorists.

  • just one question :

    What hapened with the second roket ?

  • It missed the plane.

  • terrorist need to burn in hell,but what this terrorist did was that out of this situation a better sofware program and better training to fly planes with no hydraulics came out and hopefully no more lives can be lost in the future

  • Outstanding airmanship,possibly the the greatest Belgians of all time!

  • You really can't blame the Journalist there.. they were experiencing classic Stockholm syndrome.. (cooperating with the enemy unwittingly/instinctively). At least they now know who did that cowardly attack. The guys laugh at the end was really evil though. In this day of age cutting costs for anti terrorism devices will kill you in the long run. Forget about the dangerous animals in the woods ( cougars wolves ext) The most dangerous animal today is fellow man, true through out history, and now.

  • Disagree, in that case lives are considered lost already, to prevent themselves being the victims of terror attack is the priority.

  • What happend to the second missile?

  • @Mainmanrr

    It said that the 2nd missile missed!

  • The so called "terrorist" just try to defend their country against the enemy.

    I think another correct term would be.. guerrilla o resistance, but not the terrorist game... anyway, the only ideological part of this video i dont like

  • i agree with canadafast!

  • thnx hp4609300skywalker

  • speechless ! simply...........speechless !

  • epic pilot courage and success. survival against unbelieveable odds.

    why can't people believe in their God and leave others alone. but no, it has to become a crusade, a jihad. religion has always been a numbers game. In parts of Isreal, the Ultra Orthodox ones will throw rocks at your car if you drive on the Sabbath. they can't tolerate or respect other peoples choices.

    when we will ever be free of religous madness and the fanatical extremism that it breeds?

  • Well they just throw rocks, atleast they don't attack, invade an entire country and kill innocent ppl with bombs, like america has done to Iraq, even though no WMDs were found in Iraq, infact america used WMDs on Iraq to kill millions of lives.

  • the Jews do more than throw rocks. but religion by its very nature divides people. if it didn't then countries like Pakistan would never have been created.

    America did not use WMD's on IRAQ, nor have they killed "millions" or Iraqi's.

    what America did to IRAQ post invasion is unacceptable, however, IRAQ was an important country to salvage - it has real oil, a real economy and will pay its own way very soon.

  • U r wrong my friend, Pakistan was not created because of differences in religion, Pak was created because the british came and divided Muslims and Hindus, before that, hindus and Muslims were living together quite peacefully. And the Israeli Zionist regime, no the Jews they have divided palestine and using WMDs on palestine and Lebanon. And yes america did kill millions of ppl in Iraq like it has done in japan,vietnam etc.with WMDs, America has no right come and invade another country like that.

  • Palestine was given the opportunity to establish their own country before the UN granted Israel the land but they were too fucking lazy to do it, now they are just pawns for the rest of the lazy Arab nations.

  • israel has invaded an entire country. it was called palestina. now they're fighting for what's left of it, called gaza.

  • "Palestine" was offered the help to establish their own government when the English pulled out, they declined.

    Try learning actual history, as opposed to muslim propoganda.

  • no YOU are the one learning (and spreading) propaganda instead of actual history! The fact that they (may have) declined help for establishing their own government does not grant anybody permission to invade their country.... but reading your comments tell me you're probably an american, so you won't understand....

  • so when palistine was offered the land and refused it ? whats that ? they actually turned it down ,,, sorry buddy i still dont think people should go around shooting rockets at planes ,,,

  • ok so because palestine refused to having all those israeli immigrants and when they didn't want their country (if you can call it that) to be devided in pieces on the authority of a foreign country you say they refused the country?

    oh and by the way i don't think shooting rockets at anyone is a great idea, in fact unacceptable but hasn't the USA been doing that also? so you as american can't use that argument. and being dutch, i can't neither!

  • well actually the the comment about palistine was for you and the other about iraq was for canadafast ,,, and im not really american but thats not important ,,, and there have always been jews or isreali in palistine ,,and palistine never actually refused them in 48 , trulley it is their home land,, just read about it ,,,, it very interesting

  • oh sure start countng the wars since 43 theres been 25 major conflicts in iraq and they didnt just throw rocks at that plane now did they ? and i guess they didnt invade kuwait ?

  • sorry but i was talking about palestine, not iraq. what's the conection? i'm sorry, but don't really see it.

  • there are two comment i left below one isnt for you ,,, and this story took place in iraq ,, peace dude

  • @upaste

    religion? wheres the religion? sorry, im all against fundamentalism, but i dont see it in this case... the situation of this video is just an ocuppied country at war, and insurgency (aka RESISTANCE) against the OCUPPATION ARMY is a tipical thing...

    i just dont see religion anywhere here...

  • @upaste when there is no religon

  • hope the iraqi people who did this die in hell

  • Greetings Canadafast, I agree with you about the illegal invasion of Iraq and I also agree with your perspective on atheism, but you must not blame the entire West as most western nations had nothing to do with the Iraq war and refused to support it.

    More importantly, many of the citizens of the countries that did invade Iraq campaigned to stop it but we were just ignored.

    But I do understand why you would feel the way you do.

  • Thankx, I was not expecting a polite response, nice to hear from some one who is on the same page.

    Do u like cricket?

  • Hey canadafest, no problem. I understand what you are saying and I am ashamed at my nation for so many reasons I wouldn't know where to start.

    I don't follow cricket as i don't understand it, that game is so technical!! :)

  • your funny...leave your mom's basement and do something productive.

  • thnx for the advice, if it weren't for ppl like me ur precious fuckin youtube wouldn't be up and running now. Is that productive enough for yaah, douchebag!

  • They deserve all the rewards in the world. Titty fuckin heros!

  • love this programme. thanks for the video!

  • Borat is a hell of a good pilot!

  • I like it is nice....

  • I would say that most of these terrorists from this action are now dead.

  • why dont these terrorists finish? Why they r screwing with otherz lives. As Muslim, I would say that these people have no faith, no religon, no feelings, no respect, no "BRAIN"!

  • revenge? they want to kill us because the UK and USA killed (not intentional, but via accident, bomb raid, road side bomb etc) their wives, their kids, took their jobs, destroyed their neighborhoods.

    i would be pretty pissed off.

  • For all the "god" discussion folks: well, guys, one of very BASE concepts of christianity (as well as most other serious religions) is that every last human has the "free will". We are free to make our choices.

    So are terrorists.

    Therefore, saying "God made this happen" is simply stupid (sorry, but it is). God do not make wars - *we* do.

    If god exists at all, that is. Which i am not sure about, personally.

    Peace.

  • You sir are the most respectable atheist (seems like it) I have ever come across not because you said something that I wanted to hear to please myself but a very strong point. WE make things we decide and stuff. You can put most men of God (including me for i have been stupid and arrogant at times on youtube) to shame. However I will encourage you to keep thinking who knows maybe you're wrong about doubting His existence as you could say maybe I am wrong by believing in his existence.

    Peace.

  • Fuadjalil and WVrrus I like your dialog.

    I think saying God might do bad things is a blaspheme.

    If He is, he suffers by seeing bad things to happen, still much more than we do.

    And he suffers a lot more if we are responsible for such events.

  • In conclusion, god gave us gift which is logical thinking. but we use it wisely. or else u be stupid.

  • What's really funny:

    The fireman's accent.

    And can't they use a landmine probe or something? what if the firetruck went over a mine and it exploded? that seemed to be a very stupid approach.

    I doubt the PCA mentioned in this video can be used on the A300. It tested with a 3 engine MD11, but in this case it's a 2 engine aircraft which is significantly harder to control using propellers alone.

  • supreme landing!!!!!

  • Great landing skill! Salute you!

  • Comment removed

  • I SHALL BRING U PEACHES MY FRIEND!! lol couldnt resist XD

    but its possible if we did stop making weapons then we would get overrun because im sure terrorists know how to make weapons or maybe some mentally insane gun enthusiast looks up how to make them or makes some of his own somehow and bam he can kill anyone in the US that he wants

  • Well first they need to stop war,

    war gives chances for weapon making companies money. With no war companies would go out of business.

  • bring PEACH?????????? you mean peace

  • heros!

  • I heard that El Al Israeli airlines has installed missile repelling systems on some of its aircraft because they also face the same problem of terrorism in their country.

  • because the engineers now have created a new system and a new way to safley land the airplane in such conditions... if this hadnt happned then god knwz how many people would have died... after all god is just testing us soo we know that death can come anytime even if you are well experienced to drive a plane.

  • He could of manipulated events in such that the terrorists never decided to launch the missile

    "because the engineers now have created a new system and a new way to safley land the airplane in such conditions."

    God did not in anyway influence the making of these systems. This was an invention of Humanity. After tragic events like these had happened, then we finally made them to accommodate for future tragedies.

  • To expand on what I just said, why did your God let the Japanese pilots have a bigger death toll than these pilots? Presuming God even exists, I haven't a clue why he would. I would like to hear his explanation and I presume I would find it clearly false. I never have and never will buy the argument that your God just "knows best".

  • I won't argue with you, you have been very respectful in raising your issues with God, his existence and such. You are looking it from a different perspective and maybe I am looking at from a different perspective (which could be wrong and stupid). Now if you are expecting god to diffuse a bomb midway through the air once its launched then i concede. However it wasn't God that fired up the missile. It was a stupid extremist (free will). In Japan airlines case, they repaired it badly and paid...

  • "Afer all god is just testing us soo "

    This is a common and false excuse. Even if God was "testing" us, it is a poor way of testing us and hence he is not a proper "God", for God is supposed to know what objectively is right.

  • I believe in liberty and you are free to believe in whatever you want. However it seem as if God exists does not concern himself at all with events on Earth. God in no way helped us improve our planes and that was something Humanity has done itself. It is a logical question as to why a Deity would let such horrible events happen on the Earth. It is very false to ever assume that your God "just knows best". No matter how strongly you believe, you should question a God's set of logic and ethics.

  • noo but look at it logically... because of this attack over baghdad now engineers are trying to create new ways to stop this from happening. just like world war 1 because of of the new military equipments the engineers started to develop new military equipments and boms.... so if god hadn't made this happen then there would have been no airplanes and scientists would not have develped new types of medicenes that we now use in our evreyday life.

  • "because of this attack over baghdad now engineers are trying to create new ways to stop this from happening"

    He made it happen more than once for one. If he wanted us to improve our technology than just give a major scientist epiphany, rather than cause needless suffering and death.

    "WW1, would not have develped new types of medicenes that we now use in our evreyday life"

    Epiphany.

  • "so if god hadn't made this happen"

    Sure you can explain possible motives for a deity but I can still disagree with them. There are more peaceful ways for us to improve technology.

    Even if this is a logical explanation for motive, we still have no idea if any such deity actually exists.

    Also, you should take note that scientific advancement started when Atheist rates went up. If we still were all perfectly pious, we would still be in the stone age.

  • i mean fly a plane lol.. you don't drive one (ma mistake)

  • Why did your comment get marked as spam? Religious fanatics are disgusting!

  • All i did was said something very reasonable towards a "god" that is said to be all powerful and loving. If his all powerful and knowing and loves us, then why not stop these crimes and fix the world for us to live a better more peaceful life? and then i get spammed marked down, and everything. Just goes to show how religion has really poisoned people's minds in not allowing them to think critically for themselves, and to look at these fundamental problems and ask simple questions. Thanks

  • i just wish the terrorists somehow learn - they'll never be in heaven or whatever they believe in - just emptiness, in best case. kudos to crew!

  • If 600 innocent lives are considered "rare" how much is not "rare" come on you wankers, you let the DC 10 fly with the jacked up cargo door, and you reject all these safety pre cautions? non flammable fuel, heat seeker jammers and the pca? what a bunch of loosers i think they themselves are a threat. But i am pretty sure there was some other reasons why all those features were rejected. MONEY

  • I don't know Pete...What if those numbheads aren't in their bedrooms??? he he he. Anyway, what you meant to say maybe was, park it nearest to their nuts. That ought to get some sense into their heads. But then again, I have a feeling those idiots don't even have nuts. The bedroom window seems better after all. But its sad to think flying isn't as safe with guys like that to decide for us...

  • Put those idiots who deny us the safety of PSU on a flight without hydraulics. See how that feels...I wonder if that would help change their minds...

  • Nothing will change their minds except a smart bomb parked in their bedroom windows.

  • PSU is not as great as it may seem: look, all total hydraulics loss are only imaginable in case of major airframe damage, like the wingtip this time. In this case the plane reacts different then if it was undamaged and just without hydraulics. PSU would not be able to adapt itself for the damage, so it would probably crash the airplane in such cases.

    Anti-missle jamming devices are more important system to be invented on airliners.

  • They say its rare??? What, like almost 600 some lives lost rare? Just because they weren't one of the pax on board those ill-fated no hydraulics flights...I agree 1000% with curiousfunbobby, SkavenUK...And with all those nutcases out there PSU ought to be a new aviation directive on anything that flies.

  • They banned PCA because losing all hydraulic systems is rare? I said "Put their ass on a plane with no hydraulic systems!"

  • They diddent bann it.

  • FAA : '' yeah, its rare so we aint spending money on it to save lives ok? ''

    They are fucking wankers. If a saftey feature is introduced then put it in! when will they stop waiting for lives to be lost before moving their asses.

  • Word!
