Really hard but one of the people that survived is the brother of my French teacher

the crack could have been 13 mm long then already but has not been recognized, which the ntsb assumes to be human error.
the maintainance by united airlines were complying to the law and were up to international standard.
human errors are a known problem of plane maintainance.

the damage leaves the plane unable to maneuver.
during the following 40 minutes, the pilots try to keep control of the plane.
5 minutes left.
after flying a last turn, the plane makes an approach to land.
just when the plane is on final approach, the helping wind ceases.
the disaster is there: the right wing touches the ground and the dc-10 skids over the runway.
bad thing about this story: the damaged ventilation disc had been inspected and maintained just 16 months before.

translation:
the ntsb team can now puzzle together the circumstances of the crash.
at 3800 rpm, the ventilation disc of the dc-10 suffered a tiny crack.
with every flight, this crack got larger minimally.
44 minutes before the disaster - the ventilation disc has now been in service for 17 years or 15.503 flights.
the crack gets as big as 13 millimeters.
the damaged disc can not withstand the stress caused by rotation and is torn apart by rotation forces.
