On 16 August, 1987 at approximately 8:45 pm, Northwest Flight 255 took off from Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport in Michigan. After liftoff the plan began to roll from side to side being less than 50 feet above the ground and was unable to climb to a higher altitude. Due to the plane rolling from side to side, with the left wing striking a light pole causing it to catch fire and disintegrate. This caused the plane to roll approximately 90 degrees to the left where it struck the roof of a rental car company before crashing into a roadway where it struck vehicles before breaking apart with the fuselage hitting a railroad overpass and the I-94 eastbound overpass. 148 out of 149 passengers, all six crew members were killed by the crash

On the morning of March 27, 2012, Captain Clayton Osbon showed up late for an in-flight brief (Avila, Hosford, & Ng, 2012), which was not normal for this well-respected professional. As a result, JetBlue flight 191 departed from JFK airport 33 minutes late, at 7:28 AM Eastern standard Time with 6 crewmembers and 131 passengers. As the plane was gaining altitude, Captain Osbon mentioned being evaluated to the copilot, Jason Dowd (Avila, Hosford, & Ng, 2012). This was the second violation of social and professional norms. Shortly after, Captain Osbon yelled at air-traffic control to be quiet, turned off the radios, dimmed monitors and told the copilot that “… We need to take a leap of faith…” (Avila, Hosford, & Ng, 2012). The copilot decided

The airport only had one NOTAM that the crew needed to worry about- there was some construction going on the outer taxiway. This had no factor at all on the crew or the accident. The departure was just like any other departure. Everything was routine and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. (NTSB, 1988)

On 25 May 2002, the Boeing 747-209B operating the route disintegrated in mid-air due to faulty repairs and crashed into the Taiwan Strait 23 nautical miles (43 km) northeast of the Penghu Islands 20 minutes after takeoff, killing all 225 people on board.

“The pilot, age 43 held a flight instructor certificate, commercial pilot certificate, with ratings for airplane single-engine and multiengine land, instrument airplane, and glider. He held FAA authorization to operate the SpaceShipOne, SpaceShipTwo, Proteus and White Knight Two experimental aircraft as the pilot-in-command. The pilot held a second-class medical certificate with no limitations. The pilot was hired by Scaled Composites in December 1996 as a design engineer.” (NTSB) He had been a test pilot for the SpaceShipOne program. The pilot transitioned to the SpaceShipTwo program in

This disaster was caused by a number of things including negligence. On April 25, 1986, the day before the accident a test was scheduled to take place. This test was to see if the emergency systems would work properly in case of power loss. At 1:00 am the Soviet made RBMK

Flight test data acquired from a Cessna 172 Skyhawk aircraft was used to validate a corresponding Level 6 Flight Training Device. Data collected from the FTD was used to develop the “skyway” training aid. Potential use may include visual augmentation towards improved training of flight students learning the lazy eights maneuver. Analyses of acquisitioned flight test data will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of flight training devices as an instrument for data collection and visual augmentation generation.

The 8th of December 2005 was a hard day for Southwest Airlines (SWA) but was catastrophic for the family that lost a child and for the aviation industry. At that day, SWA flight number 1248 overran the departure end of the runway number 31C during landing at Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW), Chicago, Illinois. The Boing 737 broke through two fences then onto a roadway. The plane came to a stop after hitting some cars. A kid was killed and the passengers of the cars and the airplane received some serious and minor injuries.

We are about one hour into our flight, the flight attendants are handing out pretzels and cups of soda. We have already been served and the attendant was towards the back of the plane and swiftly it feels as if the plane dropped twenty feet. The flight attendant flew to the front of the plane and hit her head on the door to the pilots cockpit. Her blood is running down the carpet along the center of the plane. My kids are screaming and everyone is in shock of what just happened. The pilots went on the loudspeaker and stated, “That is the turbulence we told you about earlier.”

While landing, the right main landing gear failed to lock in position and was therefore disrupted, leading to the cabin preparing for a controlled emergency landing. After landing, the right main landing gear collapsed, the right wing hit the runway and immediately broke into fire.

The flight was scheduled to be an on-demand passenger charter flight from Teterboro, NJ to Chicago, IL and was operated under Part 135 by Platinum Jet Management, LLC out of Fort Lauderdale, FL under the auspices of a charter management agreement with Darby Aviation. Platinum Jet Management was hired for this flight by the brokerage company for a charter customer. The pilots and cabin aide were notified of the flight on February 1st and later that day traveled out of Fort Lauderdale, FL to NJ arriving slightly after midnight. On February 2nd, both pilots performed a preflight inspection of the aircraft with no discrepancies noted and monitored the airplane as the line service technicians topped off the fuel. The passengers arrived between 0630-0705 only carrying light baggage such as coats and brief cases (NTSB, 2006).

Operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), Flight 801 was in route from the Seoul, Korea Kimpo International Airport. On board there were two pilots, one flight engineer, 14 flight attendants and 237 passengers when they impacted Nimitz Hill while on an approach to runway 6L. The results of this terrible crash were fatalities for 228 people of the 254 on board.

In 1997, a Japanese passenger on a United Airlines flight from Tokyo to Honolulu was jolted out of her seat when the plane encountered turbulence. She suffered fatal injuries when she hit the armrest on the way back down. The passenger was not wearing a seatbelt; according to the NTSB accident brief (Brief of Accident).
