@ChristopherSaindon actually, it's a Discovery Channel production and he's the original narrator fyi :)

I have only one regret. I'd take back the times I hurt you. Every day you're gone is one too long cause I need you here by my side.

These guys tried their best.

This is episode four, not episode three.

@kenny9131991. Everything is clearcut with the benefit of hindsight, but not so in practice. How do you monitor wiring that looks perfectly normal? the IFE system hadn't caused any problems up until the time of the accident and it was stated clearly in the programme, that the plane wouldn't have made it back to Halifax under any circumstances. I suspect the crew did as well as they could under the circumstances and can not be held accountable for the crash.

@chriskell9 This accident is the responsibility of the IFE company that installed the IFE system, Swissair, and the crew. The IFE system was installed improperly and the wiring arced and caught the insulation on fire. Swissair maintenance did not monitor the condition of the wiring and did not ensure that the system could shut down if the temperature got too hot. And last the crew was responsible because the Captain wanted to dump fuel and wanted to fly by the book and didn't land immediately.

The fire was actually far more severe than this documantry depicted. Fire actually was raging from the overhead panel, Checklists were found molted together, which indicated that one of the pilots and likely Captain Zimmermann was trying to fan off the flames.

@jeezleweez Agreed
-
@ChristopherSaindon you mean this narrator or the other actual one ?
-
i feel sad for passengers.
if i was a pilot, smoke on the cockpit means LAND ASAP at the nearest airport. no leveling, no by the books, no fuel dump!

I wonder if airliners' flight recorders now have backup power sources...

There is one thing that shoudl be mentioned in this doc that wasn't, and that is these pilots are really heros, because while I think most people, inculding myself, would have skiped the books, and just tried to land the plane, it seems from the moment of the pan pan pan, this plane was doomed to crash, and had it been over land of halifax, would have been easier to investigate but it might have taken more lives than it did, so god bless the polits for saving as many lives as possible.
