Fantastic programme, I can binge watch these all day. What is worrying is the idiocy of pilots, useless the lot of them.

Nothing to do with bits falling off the plane or fire in the engines then or other mechanical problems 🤔.

Classic episodes
1. Air France fuck up. Peto tube failure, ultimately pilot error
2. Canada crash where the pilot couldn't be arsed having his wings defrosted again
It's usually a bum computer reading compounded by dumb pilots

1. Last nights episode, US military tanker aircraft, 2 engines fell off. Miraculous landing by pilots.
2.Qantas crew land a badly damaged A380 against the odds.
3, BA crew get a 767 to Heathrow when both engines fail.
4. Sully in the Hudson River.

There are many many others. You’re talking shite again.

Sully was at fault for the hudson
 
Watched them all, there are some monumental cockups. The crash in Tenerife when the KLM captain took off without permission in the fog was spine chilling.

It's not like you to be a little economical with the truth.

I wonder how many other posts you've made where you're way off the mark?

How the right wing brain works. Every historical statement made by Liberal commie bastards is now untrue. Culture wars innit.
 
The one where the BA pilot got sucked out of the cockpit due to ground crew using the wrong sized bolts for the windscreen wasn't pilot error and could have been a bad one. Late Friday afternoon, can't find the right bolts, 'fuck it, they'll do, what's the worst that could happen' job..

Edit to add, crew member way ahead of their time taking a photo for social media as an accident happens rather than helping😄

I've always hated flying even as a kid. I know they say it's safer than riding in a car but in a car crash you have a chance to survive. In most plane crashes you're pretty much fooked.
I'd like to travel abroad via sail boat. We need more sail boats imho

Buildings are generally designed so in the event of a fire, the maximum single direction of travel to a place of safety is 18 metres. In a plane it is 10500 metres 🤷‍♂️

Me too, something about it is just unnerving and I always think if someone goes wrong I'm going to die with these ** idiots.

I'm with you on boats, I love any kind, even the Dunoon ferry to Gourock, last time I was on that one minute the Arrochar Alps were in glorious sunshine and then the sea mist came up the Firth like something out of a science fiction film and blanketed us, it was ace and this is just a 20 minute ride!
 
That one that Junior shows is a classic. The crew member was pinned to the windshield with icicles forming on him and he survived it.

There was another episode where the roof of the plane peeled off and they ended up flying upside down with no roof for hundreds of miles.one stewardess was sucked out of the plane.

The co-pilot was a bloody legend.
