- The Boeing 737 takes off under clear and sunny conditions, but when the plane reaches its cruising altitude of 24000 feet, the pilots hear a loud bang. What has happened is incredible, a huge chunk of the plane’s roof and walls is missing, right down to the passengers’ feet. They are flying in a convertible!
What do you think caused the loud bang in the aircraft?
From Season 3 Episode 1 "Hanging By A Thread": April 1998 - Aloha Airlines Flight 243 takes off from Maui for a short island hop to Honolulu. The flight and cabin crew are experienced and have worked together for years.
Luckily for the ninety-five passengers aboard, their seat belts are still fastened. But one of the flight attendants isn’t so lucky, she has been sucked out of the plane. Her body is never found. Donning their oxygen masks, the pilots struggle to control a plane that is suddenly in danger of breaking in two.

What do you think caused the loud bang in the aircraft?
I think u need to quit uploading reruns over and over again. I'm unsubscribing.
@@greyeyesntyler I agree on this. We need to purge these corporate cucks.
@@greyeyesntyler - K. Bye....
I think the loud bang was a 14-megaton nuclear explosion in the baggage compartment.
The plane getting ripped open like a tin can in 2 seconds.
This is a great example as to why you should always keep your seat belt on, ALWAYS. I never take mine off when flying. I sometimes loosen it, but never take it off when seated. When passengers are injured during turbulence because they weren't buckled in, it's their own fault, not the airlines, pilots or weather. No lawsuits or compensation when you should have been buckled into your seat.
Honored to have met the First officer of this flight, she’s incredible.
What a pilot and copilot. Wow. That’s absolutely incredible.
I had a friend that was in air crash rescue. We talked about this when it happened. My hope is that C.B. was not conscience when she went out of the plane. Much credit to the pilots for nursing that thing home.
If she was, she couldn't have stayed that way long- I doubt she ever really understood what happened. To be suddenly and violently ejected into a 300+ mile an hour wind stream, bitter cold, and much lower pressure- I would think that would shock the system into unconsciousness even if she didn't hit her head or anything on the way out- which she most likely did. There was a pilot on a different jet who got sucked out of the front window after the wind screen came off- long story but he didn't fly all the way out- they held on to him and he lived- but he did lose consciousness when he first flew out of the window. He woke up with them holding his legs and his whole upper body was outside the plane. I would imagine she passed before she had a chnace to revive- I certianly hope so.
Look at 32:50, 33:23, and 39:34. That big red splotch of blood right in front of the window is probably where her head hit the plane as she was sucked out - most likely never knew what hit her.
@@stoneysdead689 I was thinking of that incident too. When they got him onto a stretcher after the plane stopped, they were amazed that he was alive, although injured. I imagine that C.B. would be unconscious initially but because of the lack of oxygen at that altitude would suffer hypoxia and death pretty quickly.
@@robynzelickson6164 well actually this kind of thing happened also to a flight attendant named Vesna Vulovic, the plane was blown up or some kind of explosion, she was the only survivor and survived that 33.000 feet fall. She landed in the snow. But she didnt live to tell the tale, she went unconcious during the accident and fall. So she couldnt say much about it. It took a while for her to recover but she did and she also was not afraid to fly and wanted to continue to work as a flight attendant but was denied the opportunity because i think the managers thought that it would attract too much attention
It has since been determined that she was killed in less than a 1/10 of a second as the plane ruptured. My friend Matt Austin posted his forensic analysis around 1999 of the Aloha Airlines disaster which identifies the evidence where her consciousness was crushed in the first instant. CB Lansing had passed before she could even know what happened. Search "Ghost of Flight 243" for his breakdown.
Rest in peace beautiful lady, no body should ever have to experience the violence you endured.
OH MY GOSH!!! How terrifying for everybody! The skill of the pilot deserves recognition and a medal. He did just right things to safely land!!!!
Both He And She.
@@spiritindasky1311 People always talk about the captain he is just the higher ranking pilot is all
@@spiritindasky1311 but yes she is also a hero
ᖻᘿᗩᕼ ᖶᕼᗩᖶ ᓰS ᕼᗩᖇᕲ ᒪᓍᒪ
I feel for the poor lady who got thrown from the plane. That, to me, is probably the most horrible way to die . May she rest in peace .
I agree!
What makes it even worse they couldn't find her body at sea
at that pressure level at that altitude she most likely died from the speed of the pull
Having it just happen to you out of nowhere would suck but that’s probably among the coolest ways to die.
@@rispil7086 o ki vvi
It was a miracle the plane made it, thankfully this flight had two good pilots..The lady who was sucked out is so heartbreaking😢
My friend Matt Austin posted his forensic analysis of the Aloha Airlines disaster identifying where her consciousness was crushed in the first instant. CB Lansing had passed before she could even know what happened. Search "Ghost of Flight 243" for his breakdown. At 45:45, you can actually see the complete trail before they washed most of it off.
Very interesting as usual. The pilots did a great job in keeping the aircraft under control, and landing safely. RIP to the flight attendant who did not make it on this flight.
Thanks for the upload. These two Pilots and the cabin crew are real heroes under extreme stress in my book!
Felicitations!
That poor flight attendant worked her entire life and career for that airline and gave her life for that airline.
...and I bet the insurance companies didn't want to give the family even pennies.
@@robertgantry2118 Probably not. Insurance companies are parasites to society.
@@Bob31415 - That's a fact.
@@robertgantry2118 my thoughts exactly
What is wrong with you people? Everything isn’t AWFUL! Shift your perspective, by using logic:
After her death, we learned that the flight attendant was beloved. Doesn’t that mean she was likely a really good service provider, took great care of her passengers, took pride in working really hard? I think she was Hawaiian, or a Pacific-American, but she never left the area despite the freedom within America, indicating that she really liked her home? It sounds like she worked for her livelihood, probably her family, and she seemed so happy when working, that she likely just died in a tragic accident.
And why would you ever think that insurance wouldn’t pay what was contracted? She was the only coworker lost. It is the most no-brainer ever, when there is just one employee loss. And hey, maybe search the internet rather than to think poison & write down poison?
WTF is going on with human beings?!?!?! You aren’t alone. Every social media site I watch seems to host garbage loads of negativity. Cmon guys. Be better.
The fact the company knew CB by name shows the care for the company and the outstanding character of CB, may she rest in peace
The Union has an award named in her honor, and thankfully, it has only been awarded a few times.
yes
Not only the company, but many of the passengers also knew her name. That's a sign of camaraderie, respect and affection. The affection that comes when you see, let's say, the same server over and over at your favorite restaurant. You get to where you may even exchange a hug or a handshake. She seemed to have had that rapport.
It would have been nice to see the garden they spoke of.
@@lisalannom4397 yes, thank you
Wrong! The company you praise overflew that’s aircraft by how many cycles? We’re you listening?
I remember this very well. At this time I was a resident of Oahu Hawaii. Everyone was very concerned that landing the plane would be a major job, considering the destruction of a considerable amount of the plane had a huge hole in it. Thank God, pilots did an outstanding job landing the plane that day with very few casualties. Will never forget that day.
🙏 RIP C B 🙏
Huh? Everyone was concerned that landing the plane would be a major job? Obviously
This pilots need to be a number one he did axeselands job.and God was with him no two way about ! He need to be Recognized!
@@donatomarchelletta7326 Yes, it was truly amazing...to God be the glory. 🙏
These episodes of mayday always make me realize that pilot and flight attendants are just built different. How they go on airplanes several times a day knowing that this can happen one day is amazing. Then whenever these accidents happen, you almost never hear of the pilots or flight attendants being in a panic. They're always busy doing something to try to save the airplane until the very last moment.
It's the same as hopping into a car and driving to work. You don't think much about dying in a car accident.
I was working for an Airline as a structural mechanic when this happened... Our company had several of these planes... We had the plane built before this one, and the plane built after this one... Several of the planes of this type were grounded because of a requirement of intense structural inspections needed before any more flying was to be done with them.. There were planes that were found , that needed structural repairs on this part of their fuselages, and those Repairs gave us a lot of work to do in shifts round the clock, for several months... The 737- classic series aircraft were very well built planes, and not many other planes would have been able to sustain damage like this, and still safely make an emergency landing... The things that likely caused this to happen were the corrosive environment these planes were operating in, and the tremendous number of cycles these planes flew for that company .... Over 89,000 cycles!!!! Wow... Cudos to the pilots, the flight attendants, the fire & rescue services and the ATC people... They were awesome... RIP to that unfortunate flight attendant who was ejected as the rapid depressurization took place...Great job from the NTSB , who found what caused this to happen... An intense situation that really changed several things in that industry...
Well said! I work on a lot of complex things at an airport but I would never want to actually work on planes. I see these things torn down and I am so glad I'm not a part of it.
Finding the Cause and having People and Methods available to repair it to the Highest standards are crucial to stopping any more of these planes going down. Good work to the Mechanics.
These pilots are amazing and I'd love to have them pilot any plane I was on! They are the real MVP's!
God. Bless those Pilot and the Passenger they save
Thank you. Even though I did'nt have patients to see the whole clip, I can say that this was the most touching clip I had ever seen, I really wanted to cry together with the passengers and crew, and for the young woman who so tragicly lost her life.
I’d fly with that aircrew any day. Awesome job guys!!
I used to think the 3 loveliest words you could hear were probably, "I love you." Now I know they are , "Gear appears down." Amazing.
LoL..
I remember when that happened. I am still a certificated Airframe and Powerplant mechanic. When I started it was Certificated until surrendered, suspended or revoked. They changed the rules to recertification every 5 years. I think I was grandfathered in under the old rules. Although I haven't practiced in years I still watch these shows quite often. My grandfather told me back then that he flew on that plane and talked to CB Lansing or at least talked to that flight attendant. I've never been to Hawaii but he was out there with his brother. Even though this is a rerun it's the first I've seen it. And it hits home for me with my grandfather being there a week or so before.
One of extreme shock and extreme relief and 100% captivating and praying!
The two pilots were exceptional. The pilot, a humble composed man with a hard working co pilot. Glory be to God
Mayday has really changed my opinion of the exceptionality skill to land a plane.
not a word - not debating it
Those were some lucky flyers on that old Boeing 737.
Pilot did everything thing possible to land safe! Nothing else he could do! Flight assistant and Asian Stewardest was really BRAVE with out seat belt! Miracle , amazing story! God almighty 🙏 !!!!
I was thinking the same...she risked her life not being buckled in. She made comforting the passengers her priority. Amazing story. True Heroes. RIP to CB.
@@lahawk2931 k Ni Mo instead of five
This is my favorite episode, I've watched it at least twice. I remember the news photos of the plane after it landed, looking like a convertible. Amazing job by the pilots and air traffic control to get the plane down with only one fatality.
Ur next
"Can you fly a plane?" Words you do not want to hear, indeed.
This must be a lesson to every passenger who can observed something irrelevat on the airplane but remain silent.
I can't even imagine...
Glad they all survived except for the lost crew member.
RIP~🙏👑🕊️✨
Best Mayday episode ever!!!
Great job from the pilot team. It was a stroke of luck that the plane was still manoeuvrable and the cables to the tail were still intact. I don't want to know how many of the missing and crashed machines may have had the same damage and the crew didn`t got the time and the opportunity any more to communicate it.
Great documentary! Thank you!
Thank you for a very well told documentary . Learned a lot.
@Ernest Team.Thanks for that! Very interesting and informative!😎
It is really shameful that technical team doesn't check this and play with life of passengers
Whoa, intense episode! Thanks for making these, they're so well done!
The 2 pilots are unbelieveable and the passenger crew stood her ground. When life is on the line, near death experience, presence of mind and trust are the only things you can hold on to.😍
"ladies and gentlemen this is your Captain speaking. We hope you have enjoyed your flight aboard the Boeing 737 Convertible!"
If your plane suddenly develops a sun roof you may be in trouble.
I almost thought this was gonna b a jeff foxworthy joke..lol
33:23 is the photo that's most haunting, next to the window that's just after the missing part of the fuselage is where CB's head made contact with the fuselage as she was sucked out of the plane.
@@whawaii could you possibly post the username of the person who made the analysis video I cant find it on youtube
What was so funny, was that one guys comb over blowing in the wind in the opposite direction of his comb over!!😂😂
Amazing video!
thank god/thank you, pilot, and thank you, excellent lady co-pilot
They are so lucky , that wind was going in at 300 miles an hour, its like a tornado, how didn't fuselage didn't got complete destroyed was a miracle. People say that take off and landing are dangerous, but this tells you you never know.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This was truly a miracle!
Such coordination 🤧 that s was a great one
r.i.p. c.b. it was you that calm the winds so others may live....thank you.
I was stationed on Oahu when this happened & saw the jet--WOW!
I saw it on tv and it felt so eerie. Can't imagine how it felt in "real life."
10:37 “When is food service??”
XD XD XD
the actors went all out for this one lol
Only one casualty a pretty good result for a mayday air episode.
wow this is the greatest reenactment I've ever witnessed on these plane disaster flights. I can't believe this flight crew getting that plane down in one piece after an explosive decompression like that. the importance of staying belted cannot be overstated here because you never know. Also give some credit to Boeing for designing a plane that can stay together with its canopy blown completely away. The captain wasted no time getting that plane down about 15000 feet either.
Great job from the pilot team
I noticed the aircraft was built in 1972 according to paperwork in the video. The manufacturer suggested a 20 year lifespan of the craft, that would suggest the aircraft be taken out of service in 1992. The accident happened in 1998. The aircraft was 6 years past it's lifespan doing lots of short flights around Hawaii, which is more stressful then a long flight. The rattling in the aircraft was a clue flight attendants did not consider possible because they had faith in the aircraft and had faith their Captains expertise. My conclusion is that used aircraft should not be used past their suggested lifespan. I suggest all aircraft flying exclusively around Hawii should not be more then 10 years old, or be new aircraft. But that might not be ecomically feasible for the Company. A compromise might be for the company to purchase the aircraft at a nominal fee at 19 years old, and operate it for one year then force retirement. Or operate smaller used aircraft that seat around 100 people that are not more then 10 years old. I have no expertise in this field. I am just trying to use common sense. But economics seem to make thing more complicated.
Happened in 88 not 98. That was the point. It was nearing the end, but the constant short flights and pressurization stress fatigued it sooner than expected.
It happened in *1988* not 1998
The accident took place in 1988, and the plane built in 1969 so it was 19 years old at the time of the accident.
If the passenger had spoken up about the damage she saw before she boarded, would they have done anything about it?
Most likely not, just would have disregarded it...
At the optimum speed the aerodynamic effect of the completeness of the nose, is what kept the craft from breaking. Not just a vertical failure but in every plain, the same way that the taper of the front of a bullet control it's direction. It also eases the stresses on the body of the projectile against turbulence in motion.
I still validate my comment showing, in the context of the facts processed therein. But this comment is not the one I made about the probable cause of the loud bang the pilots heard. I also maintain that comment that I made in that regard as consistent with the facts provided.
ITS CALLED A MIRACLE‼️
Amen to that.
I’m shocked they didn’t have their vertical tail stabilizer destroyed, with all that debris that peeled off!
Very amazed they got it down!!! In our light aircraft, we have earmuffs for communication, because in an open cockpit, it’s loud!
The loud bang would have been the explosive decompression & the skin ripping of the structure so rapidly.
I have TIG welded aluminum pontoon boats with great success. Why is welding aluminum not a component of aircraft construction?
@@stanleyhornbeck1625 my guess would be that the forces planes experience are too much for welding
I can remember watching the news when this happened
ALHOA . MAHALO. Thank you for flying United Airlines.
OMG.cant imagine the situation of the passsengers,pilots n flite attemdants
Opps😶 speechless I thought of in the landing may fall apart but they had a safe landing ❤️ brave to pilot n the attandance too❤️
The fact that the debris that tore off did not take out the tail section is a miracle! If it had, it surely would have instantly made the flight uncontrollable to the point that the severely destabilized flight path would surely have caused the plane to disintegrate, ie. the nose separating from the cabin section.
God was merciful, not a whole lot else to say here.
If I had been on that plane I sure wouldn't have minded holding that VERY good looking gentleman's hand ! So glad they all made it down.
If they wood hav crashed, you could probably have held his hand, or taken any other part of him you wanted to take home w you. Granny Kathleen. Granny of dead presidents?
Is this granny Kathleen?
"Do we have a pilot?" " I don't know."
the pilot and the second officer worked in unison saving the situation
Kudos to pilots 🙏🙏
I think the most horrifying thing about this is explaining what happened to the flight attendant and the blood on the side of the air craft you know that poor woman went through a lot. Saddening.
Sad ending for a women who had been in the occupation for SO many years.
CB Lansing had passed before she could even know what happened. My friend Matt Austin posted his forensic analysis around 1999 which identifies the evidence where her consciousness was crushed in the first instant. Search for "Ghost of Flight 243" for his breakdown.
@@lahawk2931ur ending will be worse
Ihr wart HELDEN! BRAVO!!! 😎❤🧡💛💚💙💜💗
If you see something, say something-it could save your life!
But not if you see a guy with a beard holding a ticking suitcase....that would be stereotyping and that's bad....
Absolutely! For 8 years I had a job that had me flying somewhere different in the U.S. every week. One time when flying out of my hub airport I spotted something unusual midway down the side of the fuselage of our 737 and reported it to the captain. ZIP, down the stairs he and the copilot went to walk back and visualize what I had seen. When they returned the captain walked back to my seat on the exit row and thanked me for being attentive and reporting something that didn't look right. It turned out that what I saw was unusual, but nothing of danger. I had all the confidence in the world of that pilot and would NEVER hesitate to report something unusual again. Our lives are in THEIR hands, and it is only PENDING failures that are found and fixed that save lives....
@@dalewalker4614 Back in the early 80's I got on in El Paso to Albuquerque then to Denver. There was a lady that was on the flight that called the attendant to her. She looked scared. She pointed out something. All I saw was the attendant put the tray down and walk as fast as possible to the cockpit. Needless to say we turned around back since it was closest airport. When we landed we had fire trucks, ambulances, buses all chasing the plane. We needed to have help stopping. We went in without brakes. When we landed we evacuated and cleared and we heard something go boom. The wing dropped. I never thank that lady. But believe me I was totally thankful to her.
I love this series
You know what i love the most about this
She went around asking: can you fly a plane
That mustve increased their panic by 10000%
Same line was used in that movie "Airplane" a few years earlier. It was the first thing I thought of when she ws asking the question
The thumbnail for the video looks like Mrs. Doubtfire
Where ever is a dent or damage in the body of the fuselage a very sure accident is suppose to take place rather in simple words it can throwback anything which is on the way or in the direction of the plane.
The air hostess if any passengers know how fly a plane must have been desperate. That was very scary so sad to hear about the lady that passed away😔😔
37:50 "Read like a legal document." That's probably because Boeing being Boeing decided to pick lawyers to write it.
It's amazing that plane was able to keep flying with that massive aerodynamic drag on the fuselage. The turbulence over the tail planes must have been vicious.
Oh yeah, they're not kidding when they say they think the plane would have broken apart on landing if it had high winds on landing.
Respect to the pilots 🙃
At the end, what a wonderful "mentos" moment.
We Thank God for your life
Very good
Communication is key R.I.P. to the flight attendant but except for the interference on every important message for some reason everybody did a good job getting the scene together
I can't imagine how those passangers felt.
Total panic mode screaming yourself hoarse would be my likely reaction; or a heart attack. 🥺
25:40 LOL sorta, Patricia Aubrey, and her imaginings of her possible fates, i dunno, they way she uses humor to express it all
An engineer friend saw a fluid leak over the wing and told the stewardess who poo pooed it. He insisted the pilot be told who turned the plane back and possibly averted a disaster. Speak up if in doubt.
What that lady said that something told her to move to another seat has to be that if I hear or anyone hears that, DO NOT board that plane. Lots of people might say, well it's not going to happen to me, but it did, so think about it. If we have a strong feeling that we should move to another seat, then we should not board the plane.
There was a TV movie about this, called "Miracle Landing".
The power of God!
Only our mighty God, does miracles!
Great don piolets and airport all crew members
3:06: What a cute ponytail.
I love when they added heavy metal music after the loud bang occurred
Amazing landing 🛬🛬🛬🛬
I have watched this several times, it is a pure miracle the survival of all but one happened. I think this is a very well documented story. I do believe the hydraulic hammer theory is quite probable considering how many structure problems were present. In all due respect, my opinion of aging high flying pressurized aircraft should have mandatory retirement criteria in place. Respectfully as Always, Dennis, KV4WM a US Navy Nuclear Submarine Veteran and Licensed Amateur Radio Operator.
My friend, Matt Austin, posted his forensic analysis of the Fluid Hammer effect back in 1998 where he identified the evidence of CB Lansing being a key element for that to happen. She was sucked out & crushed in the first instant. Search for the "Ghost of Flight 243" for his breakdown.
The gadgets earphones" bang"..pushed by the crazy passenger
The redhead is pretty hawt!
Those are real heroes
Make a movie out of this - title should be - " Air Terror!" ! Amazing they are alive with section blown away! Miracle for sure 🙏!!
Or perhaps named "Ripped Off!"
No need for that kind of explanation. It is just a miracle .
Such a happy ending with tears and crying 😭😭
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭tears flour after watching again,
all thanks to the pilot
