strange, the PA message by the captain seemed normal with not a sign of worries nor did he seem nervous at all. The lack of communication between the pilots has maybe to do with culture difference. Many pilot friends that fly in Asia say that conversations are often held to a minimum due to culture difference. The reason why the captain was gone for so long, maybe because there was a waiting line, 2 people or so ahead to use the bathroom. Due to lack of evidence, I do not believe it was suicide
Always truly heartbreaking when a plane crashes , but when innocent men women and children die because someone wants to commit suicide thats stomach churning .
@libraladyish I just like to imagine myself in the terrifying moment the plane starts to go down. What were they thinking? Probably something like: "good god its over..."
@FatherPatOphelia In fact,....you actually look like a fucked pussy. Does that help? Are you menstruating, Father? How many children did you fucked today?
@FatherPatOphelia oh great another fucking religious dickhead making stupid shit comments on a non religious video. THERE IS NO FUCKING GOD U SILLY SAD WANKER.
This disaster is truly sad, inocent people who could have actually lived were murdered selfishly by someone else who was not happy
@Alexak75 So that would be hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours (etc) of footage, proving Dorisequador correct.It is safe. How would documenting every safe flight make one think differently?
Not a suicide at all. Crash was caused by thermal shock to the rudder's power control unit, same problem brought down 2 other Boeing 737s: United flight 585 and USAir flight 437.
NTSB assumes all pilots are suicidal/homicidal unless they can find evidence to the contrary, so pilot is guilty until proven innocent. Unfair. Pilot was slandered to spare manufacturer from legal liability. Civil court found pilot did not cause crash.
Do a google search on "Boeing 737 rudder issues" to read more.
@ExiledStardust is worthy to note that the had some motives to belive that in this case may be a suicide because the economical conditions of the cap and the fact that it happened in different conditions from those seen in the previous accidents so they suspect (turn out that those suspictions were wrong but nevertheles they got some motives)
@ExiledStardust3:56. It is presumable that they did test the rudder seeing as those two flights occurred three years before this one, and after the crash of UsAir, they found the link? I think they would have found the rudder problems with enough scrutiny; they do not think ALL pilots are suicidal if they cannot find evidence; obviously they thought the pilots of the other rudder incidents were suicidal then, case closed. Don't think so.
@supertuber97 I think it' meant to be sombre, in light of so many dying. Its not like he can make the commentary exciting, but I do see what you mean. English documentaries seem to hire this guy a lot for some reason?
@SteveGad No it's not him, but the guy they do for Air Crash Investigation is far better. Informative, but ot sombre. The guy from Seconds from Distaster makes it sounbd incredibly dramatic and trying to be excitable.
O_O I'm from Jakarta and I never heard about this accident before... But then again I was 8 at the time. It's nice they use the real airport as a footage..
@Ducky888888 Its defintitely not ACI/Mayday, but you can probably figure it out from the credits. I'll be doing just that, to see if I can find more like it. Looks to be a good episode, I dont think ACI/Mayday did this one :)
My ex Sales Manager was on this flight back to Singapore. He was not supposed to be on this flight but since his meeting with our client ended early hence he decided to make his home early to be with his family and thus tragic ended his life. Many of us including our customers were in a stage of shock and tears just couldn't stop when we attended the funeral in Pelambang..
@MrsGxoxo 31000 feet/min, or 1.86 mn feet/hr=310 Knots vertical speed. If its angle of dip was 40 degrees, its total speed was 310/sin 40= approx 480 knots, if 30 degrees, then 620 kts.
@FatherPatOphelia I do! Fuck off your a miserable heartless bastard and I notice that I'm not the only person who says so. Take @FlyThompson for an example!
@FatherPatOphelia You where beet way too hard as a child...your disgusting...just go and leave FlyThompson alone and grow up. We all came here to watch a video, not look at your immature stupid fucked up comments...what has happened to youtube over the years, so many mean motherfuckers without a life...:(
@FatherPatOphelia too bad you and your mother weren't on tha plane. wow nice thing to say to someone. now what if you where on that air plane or your family was and people seid woh give eh fuck i dont care its wasen't me. think man before talk. also now we have to worry about pilots committing suicide when we fly. one more thing on our minds when we fly now.
@986tornado OMG thats true , if i tell this to my mother during my flight to Paris in 2 weeks she will throw me off the plane or make me drive it myself XD. I used to like watching plane crashes (but i always felt sad about the family of the victims) but its the first time i was really scared of planes T+T !!
@FatherPatOphelia by the way sorry about some of my crappy spelling but really grow up airplane crashes are know laughing matter. by the way what is up with your creepy channel.
@FatherPatOphelia Kid. Really? Im just saying. It's really cool that my birthday is on this day. Your comment actually made me cry. I had friends to cheer me up you know that? Grow up. As a matter of fact, I CARE. ALOT. if YOU dont care, just shut the fuck up if your not going to say something nice and FYI, Think first before saying something stupid.
@zikry12 He wanted to kill himself but make it look like an accident, so that his family would get compensation. Otherwise, if he went and killed himself, they won't get a thing.
