Mayday: Air Disaster - From Season 1 Episode 1 "Unlocking Disaster": As Flight 811 takes off from Honolulu to Auckland, New Zealand no one suspects there could be a serious weakness in the aircraft. The Boeing 747 is heavily loaded with three hundred and thirty six passengers, crowded cargo holds and a full fuel load.
For veteran pilot Captain David Cronin who’s been flying for United Airlines for almost 35 years, it’s a routine flight. For passengers Bruce Lampert and Bob and Linda Bahna, it’s a vacation trip.
As the 747 climbs to twenty-three thousand feet the passengers hear a grinding noise. Then, suddenly, the cargo door tears off, taking five rows of seats - and nine passengers - with it. The pressurized air inside the plane blasts out with explosive force.
In the cockpit, the pilots battle the crisis. Captain Cronin dives to a lower altitude so that he and the passengers can breathe. They turn back to Honolulu but 80 miles out the pilots are losing control. They shut down damaged number three engine. Then number four engine catches fire. The plane flies on with two engines and one damaged wing.
The flight is 15 minutes from Honolulu and losing altitude. No one knows if they can make it to land. Flight attendant Laura Bretlinger prepares the passengers for a possible ditching in the Pacific. Tension runs high as the severely damaged 747 makes its final approach to the Honolulu airport. Captain David Cronin and crew manage to land the plane with an enormous gaping hole in its side. The flight crew evacuates over 300 people in seconds.
But for families of the victims who lost their lives on Flight 811, the ordeal is just beginning. Kevin and Susan Campbell lost their son, Lee. Their grief motivates them to find the cause of the accident. Impatient with the pace of the National Transportation Safety Bureau investigation, they take matters into their own hands.
The Campbells track down facts that haven’t been made public. They discover that the problem on Flight 811 lay in the locking mechanism of the cargo door. They assume the NTSB will eventually come to the same conclusion. But the NTSB report focuses mainly on how the door was mishandled by an attendant.
The Campbells are not satisfied and continue their investigation, uncovering more information about the known design faults of the door locks (and the delay in fixing them) and the problems with the electrical system that controls the locks.
Kevin and Susan Campbell’s tireless crusade for answers finally results in the NTSB retrieving the cargo door from the ocean floor. This new evidence, combined with the malfunction of another 747’s electrical door locking, leads to the NTSB issuing a revised report. This one concludes that electrical wiring is at fault. Changes are implemented immediately to prevent another accident like Flight 811.

Lee's family went into pure beast mode! Such dedication I've never seen the likes of before. God bless em! 🙏
Sad that these so-called powerful executives behave like a 3 year old caught with their hand in a cookie jar! Sad too, that they expect to be respected for such behavior
How great are his parents, we all secretly wish our parents would do this. Unfortunately I fear not all would go this far but it's outstanding what they accomplished with their persistent research
The pilots were heroes! Amazing skill shown
Pilots are heroes, they're working together 🥰
Great channel, good narration and footage, thumbs up!
6:13 Flight Engineer Randal Thomas: we lost number 3
Captain Dave Cronin: we're going down
First Officer Gregory Slader: it looks like we've lost number 3 engine and we're descending rapidly coming back
Nice cool new channel.
ive always thought the narrator's voice is too quiet in this episode.
To think that I MAY have flown on an airplane w/ this poor door locking design, and thus they essentially risked my life, almost voluntarily gave my life probability odds unnecessarily low. Thank God for people like the parents. Money cannot pay for a life - regardless of the amount - so a payment given for losing your son is almost an insult. It's great they put their grief on hold (sort of) to research the cause.

United Airlines Flight 811 24 febrero 1989
At least it was highly likely those pulled out by the decompression probably were knocked out from the sudden force. Hopefully they never woke up.
The dc10 was a great bird to fly except for that God damn door. It's not for that they'd still be flying today. One bad engineering.
Why were they declared dead without looking for them?
If the pilots knew the coordinates where the door blew out, by morning the rescue workers could look for them
Becouse people can't fly without a plane. They just fall and die on impact.
Because they died
They probably died by impact or fell into the ocean unconscious and drowned. Very unlikely and also hard to find any person in a vast ocean plus risk of hypothermia. Either one of these most likely killed them. Theres a case where a base jumper survived 3 days in the ocean with just his under wear on. But he had a parachute plus was conscious. His colleagues died bec of be coming uncoscious while falling and then drowned. So you see even with a parachute the Chance of survival in the ocean and then also the probability of being found in time is slim.
@@ms_needle3502 okay but maybe they were alive, in the first hours
Haven't you seen how some people survive falling into the sea?
@@AmazingVideos-qf5ed how would a human body survive a Fall from such a height into water its like falling on concrete... Even if u survive the impact the bones would be shattered and youre unable to swim and keep afloat plus hypothermia and strong current of water can pull the (if theres survivors) very quickly far from the crashsite.
I've seen all these show's and give them thumbs up to show I've watched them. Now they pop up again with no thumbs up! BS! From here on out they get a thumbs down!
🤣🤣 It’s because they upload the same videos over and over dozens of times
NTSP bought out...clearly.
