    “This is it baby”. Very, very sad.

    Just 4 words communicated to the ATC needed - "Don't see the Cessna"

    I remeber the cvr. The last recorded voice on the psa cockpit was: "Ma, I love you."

    This may be 2 years after you posted this but, I was there and I saw the Cessna and PSA 182 right over my head. I heard the hit and we all thought 2 planes were involved at first. It obliterated the Cessna 172 instantly on impact and 182 was on fire. The sound was a horrible whistling, engine scream. You could see the people on board 182. Close enough to see them in the windows. Everyone came outside hearing this sound but I was outside before the plane was in view as my aunt had just arrived for a visit and she lived in North Park. We lived near the airport and we were right in the flight path. The plane was so low and we thought it was going to crash in Murphy Canyon where we lived. It crashed 6.9 miles from our home in North Park. I will never forget the horrible sights and sounds from that day. The faces of passengers looking frantically out of the windows. I was just 16 years old. I'll never ever forget what I heard and saw that day. Not ever. San Diego was in a state of shock. It was very sad and surreal. No one said much on passing days. It was just shock all over the city. Like a blanket of death. I can't explain it better than that. There were bodies everywhere and landing everywhere. It was like a horrific war zone. Police and military had to guard the crash site because of looters. This is a much bigger story than people who were not there will ever know. God bless the people who lost family that terrible day. I know San Diego will never forget any of them. At the time, PSA flight 182 was the worst aviation crash in American history. Now, at age 60, it's still like yesterday for me and so many others.

    My brother was the first San Diego City employee on scene. My brother in law, a PSA employee scheduled all the Deadheads. Both were affected greatly by the incident. The stress may have set up my brother in laws death 5 years later. The ramifications of tragedies like these goes beyond the accident itself.

    Not to be devil’s advocate but if the pilot of the jet said I don’t see the plane, things would have been different

    Imagine sitting at home and getting hit by an airliner.

    The helpless feeling of passengers and crew knowing that there's nothing that can be done to save the situation. How absolutely horrible

    I was in flight training at NAS Lemore, CA when this collision occurred. It was heart breaking. And my instructor spent many hours of lecture time discussing this accident and the probable causes. Then he talked about variations of how this happened and how to avoid them. It was a great teaching/learning lesson(s) that all his students took to heart and memorized.

    "This is it baby" that man had ice in his veins. That's a stone cold mfkr. Stared death in the face and was ready

    There is a recording of ATC calling 182 over and over again and you can tell he's crying. Just horrible, all crashes are.

    The PSA "Catch My Smile" livery back then was cute. It's a big, happy, grinning plane. Which kind of makes this crash all the more eerie.

    I have seen a few other renditions of this collision and it puts a knot in my stomach every single time. This was an excellent presentation. Terrific graphics. Much appreciate what you are putting out.

    The CVR was straight up sad though... “mom I love you” just breaks my heart

    The aftermath of this crash was featured in one of the Faces of Death movies. It was one of the most gruesome scenes ever witnessed by first responders with bodies and parts hanging on tree branches, cars and apartment buildings.

    The moment when the cap said "This is it baby", and right at that moment that music kicks in, sent a chill through my spine!
