Attack Over Baghdad Part 2 - Air Crash Investigation/Mayday

error in Iraq strikes when a terrorist missile is fired at a European Air Transport freighter flying on behalf of DHL Aviation. The left wing burns out of control and all hydraulic pressure is lost. Despite the damage the aircraft lands safely at Baghdad, the first successful landing of a large airliner without the use of hydraulics. The crew are later given awards in recognition of their actions that day.

"Their Airbus has become the first civilian casualty of the war"

Not sure about that statement

[acenace24]

Can someone just talk about the episode and not other shit?

[alaneabd]

the TERRORISTS accent is for Egypt people

The journalist faced criticism for not doing more to stop the attack? Um, what exactly was she supposed to do? Say 'no, don't do that', and they'll be like, 'oh, okay, we won't'? And isn't it fairly obvious that when you're with a group of TERRORISTS your life is in danger? She likely would've gotten herself killed had she said anything to try and stop them, and she wouldn't have stopped them anyway.

@mrnugets12 Maybe you should check out the ACI episode "Out Of Control" before you make offensive statements like that.

@Solidboat123 i think the narrator means the first civilian plane to be lost.

[mrnugets12]

you wanna know why the japanese pilots failed? It was because that they've been commiting suicide alot since WWII.

Who are the terrorists? Definitely not those invaders of Abu Ghraib.

does the stabilizer trim use hydraulics as well? If not couldn't they use that to regain more control? I know in some planes the stab trim actually moves the whole stabilizer rather than just the elevator so I know in those planes the systems must be separate.
