- November 22, 2003 - It was supposed to be a routine “mail drop” for the DHL cargo plane. A war is going on, but they are just there to carry the soldiers’ letters from home. The three-man flight crew took off from Baghdad’s Saddam Hussein Airport without a hitch. Shortly after take-off, an anti-aircraft missile fired on the ground hit the Airbus A300.

From Season 3 Episode 2 "Attack Over Baghdad": The flight crew was thrown into the fight for and for their lives. It was all witnessed on camera from a passing military helicopter, now seen for the first time.
A wing was on fire and all the hydraulics were gone. The omens were not good: No one in history had ever managed to fly and land a commercial plane so badly damaged.
The flight crew’s performance under fire is unequalled in modern aviation history.

Thanks for uploading all these. ❤
I can’t be the only one that breathes a massive sigh of relief when I see that members of the crew or passengers are brought in for interviews
Its always a good feeling
Ye
Absolutely! I have no idea how they did it, just glad they did!
They don't interview dead people.
You’re not
The fact the crew managed to land the plane with absolutely no hydraulics is absolutely incredible.
Airbus
and with a busted wing on fire!
28:26 "No more talking bye" mood 😂😂😂. These pilots are legends. 🙏🏽 The combat zone was no joke. Always on edge.
bruh when the engineer said "no more talking bye" that really broke me lol
@@ibonical 😂😂😂😂
Yes, it's a terrible tragedy 111 people died in that other similar situation that was mentioned but 184 survived! Looking at the crash and breakup of the plane that's a miracle.

Blame for not doing more to stop them? She was surrounded by a dozen armed man and she had a pen and a camera WTF was she suppose to do to stop them.
She was there to do a hit piece on the usa. That French frog 🐸 has blood on her hands.. she should be hidden 🫥. Not getting paid for a documentary
She should not have been there egging them.on for a French hit piece on the usa
@@jamie.777 the US hasn't won a war against an enemy since 1945

The Japanese pilots did not fail. These pilots in this video were undeniably heroes, but the Japanese pilots had to do the same thing with no horizontal stabilizers while steering the giant plane through high mountains. Honestly, it's a miracle that they were even able to keep the plane above the air for 30 minutes.
Agree. With the Japanese disaster the main cause of the crash was not hydraulic failure but the loss of tail wing.
The Japanese are calm and cool. Nerves.of steel.
They did extremely (absurdly even) well but per definition they did fail.
True
@@jamie.777 these pilots were better then the japanese
Haaa the actors portraying the crew did a super job. Where do they get such actors to hire? Theyre like the real thing. Love this incredible true story.
I noticed they usually get pretty good actors for this series, at least they look super similar to the real people
@@wumpygaming they look like them when they were actually younger
The actors portraying the terrorists suck. They don't even speak the right dialect. It's painfully obvious for anyone who speaks Arabic.
I bet there modern day "B movie" actors ? I like these reenactment actors. Especially this episode.. u see them on the discovery true crime channel too
Hmm I think they are sourced locally in Canada (where Production Company of ATC located). Simu Liu aka Shang Qi got his early roles as Narita ATC in Fedex Md11 crash.
They landed a plane with busted hydraulics. Almost bugger all ability to control the thing and they MADE IT
These guys are awesome
And a wing on fire, too!
This accident happened 19 years ago today
Makes it even more meaningful.
Can't believe they weren't being given hazard pay, shame on DHL.
The Japanese pilots did not fail my friend. They did all they could but the Jumbo Jet was unsavable. No pilots on earth could have saved that doomed 747.
Agree
I don't think the narrator was trying to knock them. It wasn't their fault. Just a statement that flying by engines has proved catastrophic previously.
Who calls the 747 Jumbo jet anymore

3 brave men and amazing team work. A very aggressive and confident co pilot helped the cause .
Very bold.
Somebody made a grave error in risk assessment to have a civilian plane with no missile countermeasures fly out of Baghdad at that date at all.
It's a good thing the pilots were able to keep their wits about them and perform an almost impossible feat of masterful aviation to save themselves.
I like the episodes where everyone survives.
Little men with big weapons. Sickening. 😠
Little beta weakling cowards, with smelly rags wrapped around there stooooopid swarthy heads
Absolutely frightening knowing you, the crew, can perish at any moment. The crew BEAT THE BASTARDS.
Amen! Awesome crews.
The crew beat those worthless terrorists. Killing over some ridiculous religion.. there pathetic 😒
"That guy is pretty stressed" no sh*t sherlock.
These pilots are legends!
the fact that same aircraft is still at that airport.
Real definition of skilled Pilots & teamwork!
How about the Iraqi SAM operator who hit the plane with the first shot. Brave Iraqi's defending their country against an illegal occupation. Give them some credit too.
that second shot missing saved them all, even if it didnt hit the same wing the blast could have easily overloaded the damaged structure breaking off the damaged wing area
I just read about this disaster yesterday, great timing for me! Also, the title should not have an apostrophe in Missiles.
Every pilot should be trained on "how best" to fly a plane without hydraulics like these men did. It should have already been a failsafe. It should not have resulted in simply "well we had to throw.out everything we had learned and hope for the best"
Legendary crew! Simply amazing.
The actors speaking in Egyptian dialect is just hilarious considering that they're supposed to be iraquis😂😂😂
That's exactly what I was wondering about... And why 🤔🤣

@Josh Murray You must be talking about the plane that was heading towards the military ship from Iran that had F-14 tomcat and was decending. The navy tried to contact it 10 times on military and civilian channels b ut they wouold not respond so they fired in self defense.
@@joshmurray9157 There's a big difference between a misidentification of an aircraft and deliberately firing a SAM at an aircraft. The intention was vastly different.

I love this series
"There's no danger money for crew"? I understand that most struggling experienced aircraft captains will take whatever work they can get, but I think that I'd rather struggle than to fly out of Baghdad Airport during the war than to possibly risk my life during every flight. Yeah, no. Sorry. I love my country, and I understand that somebody has to do it, and alot of people did, but not I. Let me also say that I applied to become a US Marine, but I was turned away as I am a childhood cancer survivor (even though I was 18 years old and in the best shape of my life as I was 5'10" 175 lbs and could bench press 325 lbs, I could dead lift 500 lbs, and I had very little body fat). They turned me down due to my medical history. I aced my ASVAB tests, and I didn't tell the doctors that I was a cancer survivor, but you can't hide anything from the US government. This was before 9/11, but a few days after 9/11 they called me 3-4 times per day, but I was in such shock after watching those towers fall live on TV that I laid on my couch for the next 3-4 days in shock just flipping between news channels. Not to mention that they had rejected me like I wasn't good enough, but now I was...there was something wrong with that that didn't sit well with me. I struggled with that decision for the next couple of weeks, but I couldn't just go there and settle for suddenly being good enough to serve my country due to extreme circumstances. It's a decision that I made that will haunt me for the rest of my life...
I remember my mother watching this on tv, specifically the firefighter warning the pilots about the unexploded ordnance. But I was surprised by the presence of a Chevrolet Caprice and later American firefighters and their fire engines in Baghdad. Coming back to this episode, I'm also surprised by the Chevrolet Caprice in Baghdad.
This video explains the attitude of all Arab pilots. They care, they are professional, and... someday...someone has a guided missile. Ain't their fault.
This is so evil. How can human beings in their senses find joy in shooting at a plane hoping to bring it down?
the plane war working for and with the invaders
Islam is evil 😉
Because they are idiots that don't have any kind of strategic goals just to cause chaos. Because what purpose did that serve? I understand the attacks on military targets but civilians are never justifiable. It's just a bunch of uneducated angry young men trying to make a statement but can't even agree with what it is.
@@Whaley96 That's what happen when you take out a government. Radical groups will take over.
Damn...those Airbus people sure can build a plane
Usually these failures of full hydraulic are combined with further flight control damage that would likely make automated throttle control not likely to be able to assist. Although I'm surprised this feature is not yet a built in feature.
Captain expression That Anxiety Level During Interview
great doc
Is this channel not available in the UK ?? These videos have been out for a while so I’m surprised I never came across them sooner. I’ve only just come across all these episodes as I’m in Thailand.
No disrespect to the Hudson River crash pilots but I see much more incredible feats accomplished by pilots in these Mayday episodes such as this but they dont get as much recognition as they did..
The thing is, the Hudson River pilots had literally nowhere to land, and the plane would likely break apart no matter where they tried to land. If you've ever heard of the aftermath, which you're likely to have, you know the plane only suffered minor damage on the bottom of the hull, causing everybody on board to survive.
@@MaxLai_0104 yes it is indeed a heroic action by the pilots. My point is that there are more difficult senarios a pilot can be put to, such as the one shown in this episode. U think flying a plane with no hydraulics and landing safetly is easier than landing on water..?
@@MaxLai_0104 the wing tip of this aircraft is almost gone. It takes proper manoveures by the pilots to make sure the wing tip doesnt suffer overstress. Once that tip is gone the plane would most certainly crash.
@@user-fw3yq7ng8k Saving the lives of all the passengers on board by picking a specific spot where boats nearby could rescue passengers, and flying a plane without engines isn't easy, especially since the river wasn't really empty either. The fact that the pilot in command managed to avoid slamming into a bunch of boats, or hitting a structure such as a bridge is already proof that the pilot was professional. Even though there are much more incredible feats you may have seen, it's rare to suffer no casualties as even turbulence can injure a person.
I also never said anything comparing the two, they're both incredible feats, but still, I never compared them and you shouldn't treat the situation as I did.
When you go to interview terrorists and are surprised when they begin creating terror......
I was crew chief in the Air Force and have replaced flap tracks in the wing roots kind of like that before.. any way.. what I mean is I can't believe that end of the wing stayed on.
Sad thing is it probably wont cost that much to add the software as a backup for the hydraulics. Pretty much everything is already there anyway. Maybe they need to add a button on the control panel for it? Or perhaps have the system automatically switch to it when the hydraulics go out or when other situations arise.
Very brilliant pilot’s to be able to land the plane
I bet the pilots were pretty frustrated that the narrator kept bringing up similar crashed that failed when they were trying to land the plane under all that stress, he surely didn't help matters none!
They had to say the captain was single :skull:
THESE THREE GUYS ARE THE HEROES THEY SAVED MORE LIVES FROM BEING LOST AND THEY SAVED THEIR OWN LIVES
It was a cargo plane, so they only saved themself. But that doesnt take away the fact that this was a incredible feet of flying
@@jeewygames5208 it could have crashed on people on the ground, so they didnt just save themselves
Is the first officer wearing naval epaulets? Good thing that commander is also a good first officer.
FedEx has already invested in missile blocking technology
7:00 - that man in green is the same actor that played the terrorist in the episode for AirFrance flight 8969
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes. Just watched that episode a few hours ago...
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Apparently God still needs those men on earth. Fantastic.
I'm curious, is there any possible way to add automatic shut off valves/spare pipes to basically allow for something like this to happen, then bypass valves/pipes open up and you can still control the majority of the aircraft. Maybe/Probably not certain function in certain areas, but ANY control is better than none, when you're several thousand feet in the air.
Hydraulic systems already have a high redundancy, 3 in this case. All 3 systems being damaged at the same time is a very rare occurrence.
Technically, it may be possible to have a higher level of redundancy for any system on board, but this does not happen because it's too expensive.
Like the PCA system that is mentioned. It's possible to fit as is shown by the fact that it's fitted on aircraft carrying VIPs, but for general aviation it's rejected for economical reasons.
Was terrifying
35:52 the alarm amd music is fresh

19:25 dont know why that animation was funny😂😂

This is clearly footage of Delta Airlines 1141 that crashed in DFW BEFORE United 232.
The soldiers didn’t like see the plane so then it’s crashed but does roll like oops we accidentally and shot down a plane
It’s been a while but I have seen this one before.
They need to incorporate.and start installing two or three Big parachutes in the tail section of these bigger airplanes.

I like it how the redhead “Australian 🇦🇺” air traffic controller lady lost her Australian accent for half of the words she was speaking…. 🤣 🤦🏼♂️
I checked the actress. Her names is Katie Bergin. She's born in Canada but she grew up in Australia. She did alright with the accent, but I think heading back to Canada to live there would have affected her Australian accent skill.
So what happened to the second heat seeking missile?
It was a miss-hit.
All my homies hate journalists who work with terrorists and don't snitch on them
Welcome to how the B-2 fly's, when on missions. It's a form of flight controls for stealth.
Except that this flight control was under control for the B-2. In this particular case, there where no control except the engine.
I swear that I was on that flight Thank God they made it out alive
WOW!
Terrifying! I can't imagine ever having to go through something like this. Show's how experience and keeping a cool head kept them alive?

So the FAA's conclusion was it was too expensive

My guess is they did the math on the cost of implementing such a system vs the benefit and decided the benefit wasn't worth it.
Not every preventive measure is worth taking, and in the government's case, they probably looked at the total value of the average number of lives lost due to a loss of hydraulics and estimated it to be lower than the cost of implementing a PCA system.
lol, the missile animation :-D
In the old days of aviation, they would've just parachuted out
The reporters were one of the reasons why this happened
It might have happened anyway, but the reporters being there probably exacerbated the situation.

So typical of the gutless sand fleas - not a one of them man enough to fight a fair battle... they have to attack a defenseless cargo jet to feel "powerful" - Absolute cowards. Kudos to the pilots for all the work they did to survive and take the victory away from those jerks.
They are cultivated to be EVILS since birth.
So typical of the tyrannical yanks to invade a country in the guise of "fighting terrorism" when what they really want is control of the oil. The US was built on war and needs war to keep their economy going. They're the bullies of the world, and the instances where they have attacked smaller countries to make themselves feel powerful are far too many to name.

Don't much like it when journalists do PR for for the other side. They ended up virtually 'embedded' for this activity. The insurgent leader was using them to further his purpose and they made themselves available for it, and were essentially participants in the mission.
NO SURPRISE FROM THE FRENCH. They love to surrender.. these journalists were sympathetic to the terrorists.
Yes, you don't get mixed up with such serious criminal element, unless you are a secret cop or agent gathering useful intel to take them down. Because, once you are there, you are at their mercy.
I'd rather live in dad's basement than pilot in these war zones. I am 47
The soldiers accidentally shut down the plane I meant shut down like that they accidentally did a missile to the plane and they were like Oopsie’s 3:20
cool comments and all that yes incredible flying, but isnt it shocking that there is software to regulate throttle manouvering but hey thats to expensive :S as always money is more important then human life, and for rockets ?? civilian aircraft can also be equiped with ground to air rocket detection systems and flares that can even fire automatically to mislead the rockets. Also to expensive i guess.
The companies will say life is more important than money but like any big business, they're out for their bottom dollar. Money means more to them than human life. That's just how big business works.
You just can't install measures for every scenario. In most cases where all hydraulics are lost the place is unrecoverable anyways. You cannot have absolut safety
