They don’t understand how is debris from the plane crash could have been able to travel that far from the impact with out being struck by something before it crashed. They give three examples of historic plane crashes such as, Turkish Airlines Flight 981, Air India 182, and Japan Flight 123. All three crashes left behind a good size of wreckage, numerous bodies and one, Japan Flight 123, even managed to have 4 survivors (Avery). So how does a Boeing 757 and all its’ passengers completely disappear they ask. Then they go on to show the reports that no jet fuel was left behind in water or soil from the department of environmental protection. They also questioned how that could have been possible when the plane crashed with 5,000 gallons or 37,500 pounds of jet fuel. Lastly the documentary states the fragile items that were left behind, such as a red bandana, the hijacker’s driver’s license, passports, and a Marriot hotel card from the flight attendant. They overall conclude that there was no way a 757 could have crashed on that day. They claim it had to have been a smaller plane shot down as a cover up and that the original plane landed somewhere safely.

On September 11, 2001 four planes were hijacked by terrorists. After the hijacking, two of the airplanes were crashed into the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center.

The plane then reportedly filled with thick smoke with flames shooting from the rear of the plane. The passengers struggled to get though either the emergency exits or through holes in fuselage that were torn open due to the crash. The rescue effort was also slowed due to power outages on the field. The bay doors for the rescue vehicles needed to be open manually slowing the rescue crews from getting to the plane. Overall a total of 11 people died including Captain Richard W. Bushmann, a 20-year veteran with American Airlines. 83 of the 143 passengers were injured.

Most people think that the plane must have ran out of gas and that they crashed near Howland Island. This is biased.

Contributing to the cause of the accident was the Cherokee pilot’s interrupted radio transmission, which led to the Beech 1900C pilots’ misunderstanding of the transmission as an indication from the King Air that it would not take off until after flight 5925 had cleared the runway. Contributing to the severity of the accident and the loss of life was the

Brian crashed into the lake and banged up his head and his body bad. All he knew was he was alive. He swam out of the plane and came to shore. His forehead hurt so bad that anything that barely touched it made sharp pain goes through his head. He laid his head on the sand with his feet halfway in the water and fell asleep.

Pennsylvania, where the plane “crashed”, say they heard a missile go off. A resident near the crash served in Vietnam and he said knew that was the sound of a missile he heard, so it is likely the plane could have got shot down (What Really Happened).

One January day Sullenberger was assigned to depart from LaGuardia airport to Charlotte/Douglas international airport. Shortly after take-off, air traffic control claims to have gotten a dispatch that flight 1549had stricken a flock of birds which disabled the engines, and he didn’t have time, altitude, nor speed to get to any of the nearest airports. His only option was to land in the Hudson river. “brace for impact” he announced

Personal Response: I read the book Flight 116 is Down by Caroline B. Cooney. The book was a great book in my mind. Even though the cover gives the crash away it still surprised me. The book was written with great detail. The writer really makes it feel like the story and the crash was happening around the reader.

On December 17th, the brothers were ready to fly their plane again. At 10:00 a.m. the brothers put up a signal for the men in the lifesaving station to get ready for them to fly again. “When we got up a wind of between 20 and 25 miles was blowing from the north. We got the machine out early and put up the signal for the men at the station (McCullough, 85).” It was now Orville's turn to try to fly their airplane. The first flight lasted about twelve seconds and went a total of one hundred twenty feet. The plane ended in a downward dart, ending the flight. “The impact cracked one of the skids and set the stopwatch on the flight-recording instrument back to zero.

In September of 2004, Lost first aired on ABC. The drama series about people stranded on an island after a plane crash, had elements of science fiction that J.J Abrams used to captivate millions every episode. The series starts by introducing the main characters, Jack and Kate, and their personal backgrounds leading up to the commercial plane crash. However, as the series progresses, characters once believed to have little impact in the show, are highlighted in a single episode and shed light on topics never previously thought about. “The 23rd Psalm,” the tenth episode in season two, demonstrates this aspect of the series very well. The science fiction characteristic of the series is toned down to bring attention to the drug trading in Africa, specifically Nigeria. “The 23rd Psalm” attempts to inform people around the world how organized crime in Nigeria has affected the lives of many who live there, what they have to do to survive, and the sphere of influence drug trafficking has around the world.
