On July 19, 1989, United Airlines, Flight 232, a McDonnell-Douglas DC-10 experienced a catastrophic failure of the No. 2 tail-mounted engine during cruise flight. The separation, fragmentation, and forceful discharge of stage 1 fan rotor assembly parts from the No. 2 engine led to the loss of the three hydraulic systems that powered the airplane's flight controls. The flight crew experienced severe difficulties controlling the airplane, which subsequently crashed during an attempted landing at Sioux Gateway Airport, Iowa. 111 people were fatally injured (NTSB, 1991).
There are five reported fatalities. No details of the deaths or names have been released at this time.

When many people think of aircraft investigations, they think of a large-scale airliner crash. While these types of accidents get more airtime on the television circuit, the majority of accidents occur within the general aviation community. One of the most notorious of these general aviation accidents was the accident of John F. Kennedy, Jr. His notoriety as the son of a President of the United States gave a special spotlight to this particular aircraft investigation.
Asian flight 214 had a total of 307 people on board. There were 4 crew members, 12 cabin crew and 291 passengers. Three of the 291 passengers were fatally injured.

Poor aeronautical decision-making (ADM) alongside with stormy weather, an overweight aircraft and an excessively ambitious trip itinerary led to the crash of the private general aviation aircraft that killed the young girl, her father, and a flight instructor. After investigations, the NTSB ruled that the probable cause for the accident was the improper decisions made by the flight instructor, who was the pilot in command at the time, to take off in diminishing weather conditions. The plane was over the maximum gross
