    October 31st, 1994. Its Halloween. A small commuter plane was preparing to make its landing in the afternoon midwestern rain. American Eagle Flight 4184 was a short flight from Indianapolis to Chicago. A journey of only 150 miles give or take. A total of 68 passengers and crew were on board the small ATR72 turboprop that afternoon. The passengers may have been looking forward to arriving in Chicago but delays due to weather and air traffic congestion has been keeping them in the holding pattern south of Chicago.
    American Eagle Flight 4184 Crashed near Roselawn, Indiana.

    38:21 NASA found this out rather ingeniously. They took a Boeing KC-135 StratoTanker and modified its refueling boom to spray water. Then, while in flight, an ATR-72 was flown right behind the StratoTanker. And yellow dye in the water was able to show where the ice was most prone to forming.

I just retired after over 50 years as a flight attendant and came home with very very few incidents over my career let alone an accident. I am truly very grateful. More important though is we look at the record for aviation incidents or accidents over the last 30 years. We have come a long way in this industry especially in the last 20 years. The industry has become very safe and hopefully we'll continue to be safe as this is the first priority.

      That people knew and the BEA was even trying to make it pilot error to protect their French aircraft production is not what I would call heartbreaking. I'm furious at people who deliberately risked the lives of passengers for the sake of the almighty $. And in this incident they killed 68 people for that reason. The fact is that a number of recommendations after crashes are not adressed by the aircraft manufactorers if they can avoid it because it cost money to correct the flaw. It is in those cases never adressed until another crash occurs that will kill even more people until the accumulated death tally becomes to high to ignore for even the most hardline $ seekers that anything is done. And then only because they don't want to miss out on further sales. Not because peoples lives are of any importance to them even if they will always claim that to be their primary concern. But somehow their actions and explanations always have a very eerie resemplance to the Göebbels manner of adressing issues from the pulpit.

    Thanks Chloe for another very well put explanation of weather phenomena! As a very young ATP I had been in a similar situation on a SAAB 340. The only warning we got in the cockpit were a somewhat unexplained reduction in airspeed and a marked change in wind noise. I immediately requested a descent clearance and started my descent at the same time. Only later did I learn, that the 340 was susceptible to tail-plane icing in conditions where supercooled moisture was present...
    Your weather report as always is spot on and even for an old ATP interesting to learn form. Keep up the good work - much appreciated!

    Former Simmons pilot here. Well done presentation and factually accurate. One aspect that contributed to the loss of control was the ATR’s excellent autopilot. It could mask control issues until it couldn’t handle them anymore leaving the pilots with unflyable control forces upon sudden disconnection. The rudder also is limited at moderate speed rendering it near useless should it be needed above its limiting speed. This crash was another example of big business putting profit and loss ahead of safety.

      Not seconds, but perhaps minutes. The pilots in this accident continued flying in icing conditions, at a speed that was too slow. They ignored the warning signs and did nothing to escape the icing conditions. The captain even mentioned that he was concerned about stalling, yet he did nothing about it.

      We’ve got one in Scotland like that, Logan Air normally runs the regional routes like the Outer Hebrides islands to mainland Scotland, and Orkney/Shetland flights to/from mainland, but one of the sub flights is London/Newcastle to Inverness/Aberdeen/Glasgow/Edinburgh by British Airways, Logan Air can only do a few of these per week but British Airways can do the flights from Newcastle and London every day, several times a day, so our smaller Scottish national flight provider (and the only Scottish flight provider) is actually able to fulfil the flight needs of us Scots!

    This video combines many of my favorite things: aircraft investigation, meteorology, copious and tasteful use of the color blue, and my favorite weather lady. Keep up the good work!
    Also: this channel is the only one I can watch in bed with my headphones off when my husband's sleeping, as he finds the creator's voice soothing and says it helps him sleep.

    Thank you so much for the video Chloe! I loved your weather report- you did a fantastic job breaking down the science and making it entertaining and informative.
    I also want to laud the American Eagle pilots like Stephen who acted as whistleblowers, even to the point of handing out leaflets at the airport and standing up to management.

    I used to fly frequently on these American eagle Atrs Chicago/Milwaukee. I had some frightful flights on them. I remember once in a heavy snow I was sure we were going to go off the runway. We did get airborne and to our destination, but everyone was rattled. I was so happy when they stopped using them.

    I enjoy your videos as they are top of the line of all of those description videos that are out there on RUclips also I have been a flight attendant for 25 years. Retired now I enjoy your presentation very much as it’s very inclusive of all of the videos that are out there. You are one of the best presenters I have heard and seen. Keep it up!😅

    Ty for this fascinating and educational doc! It helped me put possible things together for a GA icing crash that killed 4 of my family members, although who knows, and they weren't in a holding pattern. Anyway, it was said that they hit a "sudden" blizzard on approach to an extremely high ski resort in Colorado, at night, in winter. I lived in the Colo mtns and there's no "sudden" blizzards. But they could have flown into sudden supercooled large droplets, having already made the terrible decision to fly into a storm, at night, in the mountains. The crash was witnessed and the plane tumbled down the entire runway, so they could have passed through the droplets on descent, and then had no way to control for the wind on landing, or w/e. Regardless, the pilot, my cousin, stacked the Swiss cheese model that night, with no room for any issues.
    I wish I knew more about my cousins' crash, as I got the news 3rd hand, from my mom, who was not the most accurate storyteller. People (the media) were very suspicious of the supercooled droplet thing, when the AE 4184 report came out. So it wouldn't have even been on the radar for my cousin's crash, plus a GA accident wouldn't have had the investigation of a newsworthy commercial flight.
    I knew little about aviation in 1978, and time has scrambled the details as I heard them. Too many have lost their lives to icing. Flying in bad winter weather made me very anxious ever after, and I avoided GA and commuters, esp after the AE crash. My cousins' crash caused fear that kept me from becoming a pilot later on, when I developed a real love of flying and interest in aviation. Too bad I didn't know all the things about aviation I know now, tks to great aviation channels like this, back when becoming a pilot was still possible.

    Dear Chloe Howie.
    I really do love Your channel because of several things.
    All the immense work You put forth regarding,( in lack of better words, )all the facts, every little spec og information, You have to "hunt down" regarding what kind of aircraft it were, crew, weather, in depht analycis around the nature leading up (down) to a crash / incident, ie. Ice. I'm a subscriber for several channels on RUclips, but I must say Your channel is simply one of the best. Thankyou!

    I remember stumbling upon one of your older videos a while ago and thought, damn this is top content but would watch here and there. With some of your more recent uploads I realized it's that same bomb channel that used to do shorter style vids that stratch that itch for the mid 2000s episodes of mayday, seconds from disaster and similar Canadian produced discovery channel videos that I used to watch growing up, dubbed in Latin America.
    After the Avianca 11 and your two most recent videos, I was instantly hooked. the level of detail, research, respect for the subject matter, intrigue, editing, writing, music, and most importantly, sheer professionalism and passion, I must admit, this is some of the finest content I've ever stumbled upon my 14 years of being on RUclips.
    Hats off to you Chloe, I couldn't feel more lucky to be presencing one of the finest content creators on this site, excercise her creative muscles and grow into such a talented creator. The weather segments you have added are just insane, I didn't think your videos could get even better. I'm an industrial engineer and although I did not study aerospace or aeronautical engineering, your content is fascinating. perfect ability to present technical and complex concepts without omitting important details, while balancing it with digestible explanations. I've learned so much and have greatly expanded my knowledge of what leads to these tragedies, which have fascinated me from a curious perspective since I was a kid.
    Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication for all you do, really happy to have stumbled upon your channel, subscribed and I hope to contribute to the patreon soon, to support more amazing content like this. Wishing you the best of luck with the surgery and the recovery!! no need to stress out about the upload schedule, every video is a gem and a gift from you to the world. Keep killing it and being awesome 💪I'll be cheering you on all the way to the very top!
