  • On 31 October 1999, EgyptAir Flight 990 crashes into the Atlantic Ocean while flying from New York City to Cairo, killing all 217 people on board. The cause of the crash is disputed: the Egyptian government claims that the crash was caused by a mechanical failure with the elevators, but the US government claims the aircraft was deliberately crashed by the Relief First Officer Gameel Al-Batouti.

      As for decomposition; since they were bringing dead bodies(and parts) onto the ship, the amount of odor the ship crew would experience would be linked to how long it had been since the crash, and also how cold the remains had been during the time that had passed. A lot of variables. I'm pretty sure it was very unpleasant to be close to this stuff.

    When the captain got back to the cockpit and asked “what is happening” and having no response from the relief first officer, that should be a red flag right there.

    The fact that Al was so keenly insistent on "relieving" the co-pilot. The plane encountering an issue after the captain left. Switching the autopilot off. Cutting off the fuel to the engines despite an elevator being the issue. Al not responding to the Captain's question. Al not declaring an emergency/mayday. And finally Al continuing to push the stick down despite him being experienced enough to know that pulling on the stick is how to recover a dive. These FACTS alone are enough damning evidence that this was an intentional act.

I am sure none of the authorities have any answer to this. Still people like you are trying and hide these facts. It may be true that an existing mechanical drawback of the airplane design has been identified and reccomended for changes. But no clear cut evidence on weather it was indeed a mechanical failure because there was opposite inputs from both pilots that led to shearing off rivets. These are recorded evidence and you are simply ignoring it. From the beginning itself Egyptian authorities are desperately trying to find a mechanical cause alone for the crash. And moreover not allowing the FBI to investigate more on this at Egypt, why???. I am pretty sure if Egyptian authorities were more desperate they could have come up with more cooked up mechanical causes!!! RIP to innocent loves lost!!!! No means to offend co-pilots family but still if something is wrong you should not justify it.

    "I have lost control of the plane" is what you would expect to hear an experienced pilot tell his captain as part of the flight team. But one could see from the moment he pushed the younger man out of his seat (his bullying was on the recording) that he was not respecting proper cockpit protocol. It was all about him and his "pain." Same mindset as those who take part in school shootings; selfishness beyond compare and an uncontrollable lust for revenge. It comes from feeling powerless.

    In the companies I've worked for, you never get a heads up that you are getting fired. You first get the news and then escorted out and removed access from getting back in. That concept was more important in this industry. Should have been obvious for all the other pilots when things started going wrong why this guy wanted to take his turn too early and they should have all come back in and kicked him out.

      @Hayden Burns How is one biased for not condemning but defending the one who supposedly killed her father. That makes no sense at all. My 2 cents. If Batouti wanted that plane to go down he would have made far more convenient actions that would fit a mass murder-suicide. The unintelligable phrase at the beginning of the ordeal was thought to be "control it" or "hydraulic". If we assume it to be hydraulic it could change the entire case. If you listen to the VCR you"ll notice the phrase dials down and comes to a complete halt shortly after the Captain enters. Beside that it should be assumed that if Batouti was about to embrace death he would have used other phrases, don't take my Muslim word for it. Search for hijacking transcripts or even Muslim suicidal pilots. The last words are always either "God is great" or "I bare witness there is only one God, and Mohammed is his messenger". There is not one single case that i could find under these circumstances where that didn't happen. Hell, even some non suicidal pilots were recorded saying one of those two on their final moments. I also believe this is why Egypt protested so heavily against the American investigation. Anyway back to the point, the captain asking wether the engines are off, for some reason people think this was a suprising qeustion to Batouti, but if you listen to the recording it is much more in the tone of a order then a reqeust. The captain clearly tries to convey the same message in a different and clear way where he made a small mistake and said "get away "in" the engines" which he almost directly corrected with "shut the engines" in which Batouti replies "it's shut" inmediatly in a firm and stressed tone. Those were his last words. Beside that you also can't disgard the 150 planes that were grounded and i believe 53 of those had to undergo maintainance on the elevators. I think this was a case of extraordinary odds gone bad, but we will likely never know for sure. Have a blessed and peacefull day :).

    Even if, and that's a really big and improbable if, the relief first officer didn't do it on purpose, he's still majorly responsible for the accident and all those deaths. Even if it had been a genuine mechanical issue, he handled the emergency so badly that he might've just as well directly caused it. He didn't react as a trained pilot would - he didn't try to rectify the situation, he didn't communicate with his captain, he didn't do anything at all that could indicate he was trying to be a part of the solution.
    As for the tyre argument; is it so inconceivable that that phone call could've happened before the crucial meeting with the chief pilot? Or, alternatively, isn't it possible he could've decided to commit suicide only once he boarded the plane?

      I think that between those two choices you have to go with murder-suicide because gross incompetence implies that, despite having such a long career, the first officer didn't really know how to fly the plane. No one suddenly becomes incompetent so, if he truly WAS incompetent, he would most likely have been in a crash well before this incident.

    I flew with a 1st Officer who threatened to commit suicide twice while in the hotel. He was going to jump off the hotel roof. I was present for one of the two episodes. He was divorced 4 times, never made it to the Captain's seat, had minimal abilities as a Pilot. I was very concerned about flying with him. He died shortly afterwards. Cause unknown, but more than likely suicide . He had drunk enough to sink a ship. Pilot's are humans and suffer from the same emotions as everybody else. To take 100 plus others with you is inexcusable. Clearly, this was the cause of 990....

    It was in level flight, autopilot was engaged. Relief pilot takes over, within seconds he's disengaged the autopilot and pushes the nose down. This was no accident, the real captain knew the relief pilot was up to no good. He was questioning him and confused as hell because he was pulling up while he was pushing down. There was no reason to have ever disengaged the auto pilot unless the pilot was intending on doing something drastic. This relief pilot was being investigated by the carrier and was due to face some serious implications the day that flight was scheduled to arrive Cairo

    It’s obvious what happened here, a proud man had his ego hurt, his career was ending, felt offended by the superior and the new first pilot, decided to “pay back” to those that offended him. It’s actually something common that you see for long time employees of a company that are forced out to get a bout of depression, lash out at people. What I don’t understand is why his superior had to travel to NYC to have a talk with him, when the employee in question was a pilot and would be in Cairo in couple days, I assume the head pilot wanted a free trip to NYC, he should had waited to drop the news on him when they came back to Cairo, put him on fake medical leave and let him retire in 3 months. Once the news was delivered in NYC that he was being forced out, he never should had been allowed to fly the plane again.

There were 14 other pilots on the same flight that is why i don't believe that he had been demoted. The chief pilot was scheduled to be on that flight long before the alleged sexual harassment took place - it was simply a coincidence.

      Even though he was not fird in that conversation, in Egypt air the chief pilot cannot fire anyone! It's a government firm. At least not without a long bureaucratic investigation.
      According to the claimed conversation he was banned from flying to the US for the last 3 months before his retirement. Is it enough to make him decide to lose everything and kill himself? No.

      The Egyptian government had a hand in this. The story is that one of the military officers who was suppose to be on the plane is the current president of Egypt right now, El SISI. El SISI was suppose to be on the flight and moments before he boards the plane he was informed by someone not to get on the plane and he survived the "accident". The aim was to kill the Egyptian military officers who were training with the US army. No one knows why and anyone who speaks about that flight disappears. There is even rumours that the Mossad is involved because the military officers were considered scientists who were building weapons that could threaten Israel's sovereignty. A real story that actually happened was that an Egyptian scientist snuck parts of a missile undetectable by radars into several flights that would later be rebuilt in Egypt. The Mossad found out about it and as a result the US government took back the missile and arrested the scientist. The Egyptian president at the time (Mubarak) fired the general in charge of the operation. It is believed that the general was loved by the military and that there was connection between him and some of the officers on board the flight.

      One exception to your statement, not entirely sure if the NTSB investigators became so tunnel visioned with a biased, preconceived notion they felt was the cause or Boeing consulted with the NTSB to blame the pilots to avoid grounding 1,700 727s, the TWA 727 piloted by Hoot Gibson that fell over 30,000 feet in less than a minute before the pilots regained control and landed, the investigators from almost minute one believed the pilots had done something to cause the dive, then they insisted they were messing around with the flaps, and never thoroughly questioned the pilots about the events leading up to the dive, even allow them to tell their version of what happened, nor did an appropriate analysis of every part that could cause a loss of control. The final report blamed the pilots for the dive for extending the flaps and slats in cruise but the physical evidence showed the dive was due to a lower rudder hardover and when the gear was extended in a last ditch attempt to save the plane, there was an overextension that ruptured a hydraulic line and centering the lower rudder.
      Had they questioned the pilots they would have learned the plane yawed several times before the dive.
      The good news is that this was due to a fluttering outboard aileron, being at 39,000 feet and a faulty yaw damper which wouldn’t have necessarily caused a grounding of all 727s, and there were some other instances of a yaw damper and hydraulic lock causing a rudder hardover but none were at 39,000 feet or had a fluttering outboard aileron.
      But as you said, every investigation is conducted professionally and with the exception of the Hoot Gibson story, what the NTSB declared happen in over 150,000 reports was what most likely happened.

    So… evidences for this tragedy being a deliberate act: 1.) The copilot being so extremely insistent on taking over even though his shift should officially start few hours later. 2.) A sudden and rapid nose down descent, just after the captain left the cockpit and left the copilot alone 3.) After the captain managed to get back to the cockpit and asked the copilot what the hell is going on, there’s absolutely no response from the copilot other than repeating “In God i trust” again and again. 4.) The captain realising that the copilot himself is pushing the nose down and has turnt of the autopilot and the engines. 5.) after the captain gets back to the controls and tries to save the plane by pushing the nose up, the copilot is still not responding and is still pushing the nose down.
    Evidence for this to be an mechanical failure of the plane: A broken piece of the aft flaps that could’ve ben broken off by the impact….

      this is not real, the aircraft was hit by missiles and the captain was an old air force pilot and tried to save the aircraft. he also has three phone calls recorded before the flight that he was talking to his friends and daughter in egypt telling them he got the things they need. usa said it was a suicide attempt to cover up the fact that they shot down the aircraft because it had around 80 military officers on board and 3 egyptain nuclear scientists. please read all the facts

    This is a horrible thing that happened. I know only what I've seen from this video. It sure looks bad for Gamil. The whole thing is beyond suspicious. The plane goes out of control as soon as he's alone. He does the opposite of what a pilot trying to save the aircraft would do. He offers no insight as to what is going on with the plane, after being asked by the Captain. That's weird no matter what you say. I feel bad for his family but offering strange excuses doesn't help. It seems pretty clear to me that Gamil wanted to crash the aircraft. So sad. God Bless everyone on board!

    I want to first start by saying thank you for enlightening us the public with these videos. I find them very interesting. In this very plane crash I dreamed about the night it crashed and found out the next day that indeed a plane had crashed into the Atlantic Ocean. I was young and happened to be on a religious/ spiritual journey I would say, but indeed saw and somehow witness this harrowing plane crash. May all parties aboard this flight R.I.P 🙏

    The flight cockpit recorder is all you need to solve this case. The family of the relief co-pilot should stop their nonsense. The cockpit recorder clearly explains what was going on that is why he did not say anything to not incriminate himself on the insurance payout for his family. Anyone who does not talk about what the airplane is doing during an event like that should never set foot inside a cockpit and their intent is clear, taking down the airplane on purpose as it has happened before. This was clearly intentional as he never spoke back to the captain as to what he was doing to recover.

      I believe most modern airlines have two pilots. The occasional jump seating, but is not in control of anything on the aircraft, basically just a passenger. But I also believe the protocol, (at least for flying freight) if one of the pilots leaves the cockpit for any reason, someone else on the flight is to come take their seat until they return. There are to be two people in the cockpit at all times.

    I know it's easy to say what I would have done and what should have been done, but the part I don't really understand is why the captain did not realize his co-pilot was actually a threat and do something to incapacitate him after making what should have been fairly simple observations: 1. he had the plane in a dive and 2. was not responding to repeated demands for explanation. If he could have managed to get him off the controls, the plane might have stood a real chance of being saved.

    RE the title: It is no mystery, it is clear as day that the FO committed a disgraceful pilot suicide, the only problem here is that the Egyptians refuse to admit that one of them would do such a thing, a widespread disease within this culture. Might sound harsh but it's true.

      Which is why he switched the autopilot off , he knew it would adjust the stabiliser trim to override the elevators .
      Alaskan airlines the stabilisers became unsecured , nothing the elevators did was effective.
      Any pilot half his weight knows , speed equals lift , he killed the engines , didn’t use spoilers , didn’t adjust trim , deliberate
