Majority of the rest of plane remains at the crash site because it was too difficult for the people to carry them away. They tried to carry the plane’s tail away from the crash site with a helicopter, but it fell during this process. Surprisingly, the tail was still intact after this. (This animation shows that the tail of the plane broke into pieces, but in real life the tail was still intact)

      In some catastrophic car crashes multipul deaths the NTSB and Insurance Institute for Highway safety investigate the who, what, why, how, when and try to find ways to possibly prevent another type of crash. It's not as known like FAA and NTSB but there have been high profile car crashes that the listed previous checked the crash. I remember a crash East outside of Albuquerque in 1993-94 where a Ford Windstar van melted to a puddle of melted aluiminum after being hit head on by a semi. The NTSB, and IHS came to see why the van literally melted and killed the three occupants . Don't remember their finding but they do do the same as pane crashes just not as Sensational as plane crashes.

    I believe there were other systems out in the Phantom not mentioned here in addition to the leaking oxygen system, an inoperable transponder, a faulty radar system, and it's radio had just been patched before take off. Also the report I saw said that the previous flight where the faults appeared was a cross country training flight, not intercepts as stated. The Marine Corp did approve this flight to get the plane to a maintenance facility.
    Poorly researched. On that last flight, I think it is one I saw on Mentour Pilot, which mentioned rerouting due to weather, not sure what else. There are usually several factors involved in a crash, from the issues of the one I already knew about I think all of these have been over simplified. Looking up the conclusions on the crash reports would have avoided this.

    Parts of the two engines were found separately, each about a quarter-mile from the main crash site, indicating that they came off the plane not long before impact. The plane departed Runway 31L at Kennedy, heading northwest, and made a left turn, toward the south
    On Nov. 12, 2001, American Airlines Flight 587 crashed in Queens, New York, shortly after takeoff. All 260 people aboard the flight bound for the Dominican Republic died, along with five people on the ground. About 90 percent of the passengers were of Dominican descent.

      @4325air 2 года назад +4

      The F4 had landed earlier at Mountain Home Air Force Base, having its radio become inoperative while landing. Per routine orders, the USAF maintenance personnel for "transient" aircraft examined the F4 and found that it had an inop radio, inop transponder, leaking crew O2 system, and degraded radar. The USAF did not have the parts to repair the O2 system and the radar. The radio was repaired, and the crew was ordered to return to home base at an altitude low enough not to require supplemental O2. The radar was not operating properly, but it was not required in those days (1971). In those days, "see and avoid" was the operating policy. You can look up the details in Wikipedia. A problem with so many of these videos is that all of the pertinent info is not always included. Hope this helps.
