SWISS AIR 111

A McDonnell Douglas MD-11 operating as Swissair Flight 111 experiences a fire in the cockpit due to faulty wiring. The pilots divert the aircraft to Halifax, Nova Scotia, but vital systems fail while dumping fuel in preparation for landing. The aircraft crashes into the sea off Peggy's Cove with no survivors.

  • @kingh83 Thank you very much. And I know that if he was here, he would want me to know that he loved me and to do so much with my life because you never know how soon it could end. Thanks for your kind words. They are greatly appreciated and cherished.

  • @fsx777pilot maybe mixture of circumstances n confusion i pray 2 god u never get in those circumstances v depend on u pilots uncondtionally

  • @AsiaJonelle feel very sorry for ur family may god atleast have mercy on him be brave n have the strength to bear ur loss tomorrow is another day

  • I blame myself for watching this a month and a half before I travel to Florida.

  • Capt Zimmerman made a fatal error here. His assumptuion that he HAD TO dump fuel because he was over max landing weight was incorrect. Maximum landing weights are related to tire and brake assembly warranty periods and have nothing to do with safety. He was in position to land within 5 minutes when he broke off his approach to the south to head back out over the water to accomplish this totally unnecessary task. Terrible training by Swissair.

  • Dumping fuel could be disastrous in this situation

  • Too bad that luxery would lead to death! First class passengers being able to gamble would end up gambling for their lifes! A twisted ironic twist!
