Aeroperú Flight 603 was a scheduled flight from Jorge Chávez International Airport in Lima, Peru (LIM), to Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, Chile, which crashed on October 2, 1996. The flight originated from Miami, Florida, United States's Miami International Airport.

On October 2, 1996, shortly after takeoff just past midnight, the Boeing 757 airliner crew discovered that their basic flight instruments were behaving erratically and reported receiving contradictory serial emergency messages from the onboard computer, such as rudder ratio, overspeed, underspeed and flying too low. The crew declared an emergency and requested an immediate return to the airport. Faced with the lack of reliable basic flight instruments, constantly receiving contradictory warnings from the aircraft's flight computer (some of which were valid and some of which were not), and continuously believing that they were at a safe altitude, pilot Eric Schreiber and copilot David Fernández decided to cautiously begin the descent for the approach to the airport. Since the flight was at night over water, no visual references could be made to convey to the pilots their true altitude or aid the pilots in the descent. Also, as a consequence of the pilot's inability to precisely monitor the aircraft's airspeed or vertical speed they experienced multiple stalls resulting in rapid loss of altitude with no corresponding change on the altimeter. While the altimeter indicated an altitude of approximately 9,700 feet, the aircraft's true altitude was in fact much lower. It struck the water approximately twenty-five minutes after emergency declaration, making the pilots realize the true altitude of the airliner; for twenty seconds the pilots tried to make the airliner climb. The airliner then crashed into the water.[1] All nine crew members and sixty-one passengers died.

After the crash recovery crews found nine bodies floating; the rest of the bodies sank with the airliner.

  • Lamentables todos los comentarios xenofóbicos aquí expresados. Soy mexiano, he viajado a Perú y conozco gente muy valiosa allá. Ayudaría mucho ver el el programa Mayday para comprender lo que aquí sucedió, los pilotos hicieron su mayor esfuerzo ante las condiciones que se presentaban en ese momento. Nada tiene que ver la nacionalidad de los pilotos, cualquier piloto en esta situación estaría igual de confundido como lo estuvieron ellos. Saludos desde México a Perú

  • Dificiles momentos vividos por el Sr.piloto Eric Schreiber ,El Sr.copiloto David Fernández,la tripulación y los pasajeros(Q.E.P.D).Esta terrible situación vivida por ellos nosdebe dejar un gran ejemplo de vida para el avión que cada uno de nosotros piloteamos a diario como lo es NUESTRA VIDA:si nuestro avión presenta problemas debemos repetirnos las palabras que el Sr.Schreiber le dijo a su compañero Sr.Fernández "ACTITUD,ACTITUD" para intentar resolver nuestros problemas.

  • david , erick te la canto lo de los altimetros , pero perdieron conciencia situacional debeo estar loco ya que tu no me escuchas mas.

  • si se les habia pegado el altimetro,por que no despresurizaron el avion y rompieron el climb?.se olvidaron de lo mas basico de este negocio, aun asi es muy dificil si hubieran mantenido el glide slope con 70 o 60 % de n1 hubieran llegado a casa

  • @sjk757

    exactly,and they also have a radar altimeter as well.

  • geez its like there arguing back and forth...how many times does the co pilot have to tell him about the auto pilot?

  • Oof, tense moments. A a pilot when you hear the back and forth between the seats it gives you an uneasy feeling. Their situational awareness was 0. :(

  • una lastima por aeroperu....

  • @Carlos000000000100 UBÍCATE IMBÉCIL ANDA A HACER PUBLICIDAD A UNA PÁGINA ADECUADA, NO VES EL ACCIDENTE HIJO DE PUTA IRRESPETUOSO DE MIERDA.

  • @caritoabe ..... JODER, ANTES DE DECIR LAS COSAS INFÓRMATE TIPA... POR SI NO SABES, LOS PILOTOS ESTUVIERON HASTA EL ÚLTIMO MOMENTO ASÍ QUE SI VAS A CULPARLOS, MEJOR CÁLLATE.... A DEMÁS LA CULPA LA TIENE LOS CREADORES DEL AVIÓN, QUE LA ESTUPIDEZ NO AVISA QUE ESTÁ ESA CINTA.... Y EL TIPO/A QUE NO SACÓ ESA CINTA....

  • Todos al final somos humanos, sean buenos o no, todos en algun momento cometemos errores, lamentable no es cuestión de nacionalidad, al menos los latinoamericanos nos mantenemos unidos, saludos desde Ecuador, y condolencias a las familias de este trágico accidente.

  • El relato de la muerte de la aviación civil peruana... para siempre....
