Fortunately this ended up with no fatalities. However, there was a midair collision a year later over Uberlingen, Germany, between a DHL flight and a Bashkirian Airways flight. A similar situation, but both the controller (who was overloaded due to heavy understaffing) and TCAS (gave conflicting instructions to both flights) were to blame. By the time the pilots saw one another and tried to avoid disaster, it was too late. The DHL plane's tail sliced the Bashkirian plane's cockpit and forward passenger cabin off, and both crashed. An earlier comment noted that the recommendations for the previous near-miss were only published 11 days after this accident. Ironically in a twist of fate, the controller was later murdered by the father and husband of two of the victims of the Bashkirian flight at his home in Switzerland.
@@Gameflyer001 The controller was not overloaded, it was night time, but the maintenance failed to warn him that the STCA (short term conflict alert) had been desactivated for maintenance. It's something that flashes red on the radar screen if two planes have potentially dangerous trajectories. The controller detected the issue quite late, and told one pilot to climb and the other to descend. The onboard TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) however said the opposite to pilots, and one pilot listened to the TCAS (and that's the right thing to do) and the other listened to the controller (wrong thing to do). So the TCAS didn't give conflicting instructions. Anyway now it's clear in controller training : if a pilot says "RA TCAS", the only thing you have to answer is "Roger". So three people are to blame : the controller who didn't detect the conflict, the pilot who ignored his TCAS and the maintenance guys who didn't warn the controller of the STCA's deactivation.
He probably figured that the other plane would do something to avoid their plane, just imagine if both planes jerked downwards they would have collided killing all 677 people
@@teathesilkwing7616 I was thinking the same thing. Logically, whichever plane is higher up and going down would just pull up, and the one climbing should nose down. Otherwise wouldn't they experience way more Gs of force, causing more injuries?

I love how the trainee was given 1 year in prison for failing to deal with what is considered too much to handle, instead of whoever gave him that work in the first place.
Yeah but he did still nearly kill 677 people sooooo... also in terms of prison sentences that was short. 1 year is nothing compared to sentences of less severe cases like robbery
G G I don’t think he deserved any sentence at all, just more training. While I think the woman deserved jail time for her lack of consideration of pilots carrying 200 people are in the command of this new air traffic control worker
I don't get, this kind of error doesn't happen often, but sometimes you make a mistake. That's how you learn just about any job. The trainer is supposed to pick up on it immediately, but even if they both fail, as long as it's not negligence there's no reason to send anyone to jail. In France for instance you really have to fuck up big time to just get fired.
Pilots are taught to always turn right in a head to head situation, so this doesn't happen. So the pilot technically did what he wasn't supposed to, but luckily it worked out.
@@LauPaSat-pl Then how about: "777 nearly landed on Toyota Corolla"? There was an incident involving 777 (crushed less then 100m from runway) nearly hitting M25. One of the cars driving past, might've been Corolla or Auris.
3vr1m Their different. Wendover likes to talk about airplanes only. RRL likes to talk about science crap, some history, cool things, and Toyota Corollas.
There is an old ATC saying "What's the difference between a pilot and an ATC officer? When a pilot makes a mistake the pilot dies! When an ATC officer makes a mistake ... the pilot dies!"
Moral of the story: Don't give new ATC trainees so much work to do or else they might get overwhelmed by the fact that they have to instruct crew members from a dozen planes which might result into two planes nearly obliterating each other.
Additional information: IATA now rules that TCAS resolutions now have priority over instructions by ATC. Two planes collided for this exact reason in 2002 over Germany
At Überlingen, the captain of the Boeing initiated descent according to TCAS recommendation, while at the same time the captain of the Tupolev ignored the TCAS advisory to climb in favour of an incorrect instruction from the ATC. Had both captains followed the TCAS instructions, the collision would have been avoided. EDITED as I must've misunderstood the op's original message - indeed the 2002 collision happened because TCAS was NOT treated with priority at the time
it happened above the Bodensee as we call it wich is part of the Swiss Border if i am correct, one of the captains follows tcas while the other does listen to his flight guide(idk the shortcut) this guy then doesnt know what went wrong and that tcas is a tive and telling the pilot the right direction both are facing the same location at the same time and arrive there just like told,the top aircraft rushes through the entire passenger cabin and cuts the lower airplane into too much parts, only the cockpit remains and slowly faces the earths falling down with little movement remaining, pilots screaming like hell and not anymore being able to breath suffer their death coming slowly towards them, the others in the heavily damaged aircraft lost the rear wing entirely to turn left and right same as up and down, slowly moving towads the ground trying to rescue as much as possible without any hope and the aircraft just turning sideways very slowly, feeling this is unimaginable terrible and hurts your heart till you finally explode on the ground just to end your hell like terrible suffering as well, and after both planes explode the guide is trying to contact both aircrafts without 1 single response knowing that a hellfire tragedy has occured on his duty, he crashes mentally and leaves the controller room while someone replaces his working position for the rest of the duty, later the reporters arrive and the guide disappears not telling anything, months later a old man appears near his home with a murder knife slowly approaching the guides house and murdering him once the door is open, he got no answer to why he lost the person near him who died on the big crash, later this entire part of human history ends up in heaven and for the dead guide a red flower is added to the controllers room to thank for his services and remember the big accident My Opinion: Aircraft History never was save enough to save the people this day, right now when i wrote this comment i even cried since i remember ever detail in the documentation.

Yeah that’s what I thought, he got too harsh of a punishment. Yes, his error could have cost hundreds of lives, but for being a trainee he had too much to handle, and the higher ups that gave him that much work should have gotten in more trouble, not him
@@dangerfox1776 they have specific test to select the most qualified controller. you can't say it's the controller's fault for taking the job he was unqualified for. it's management fault for not hiring a qualified personnel
Kaze he is saying a feels bad goes to them, which is improper grammer if you do what you did, and not understand that “a feels bad” was completely intentional and a reference to a meme that is often used for reaction. So yes, he was intending to say it that way.
Wasn't this before procedures around this were established? It was a culture issue I think. Do you obey the passive computer, or the human being working for the government who can report you? US regulations make it clear that TCAS gets the final say but I'm not sure what the regs were in Japan at the time.
This is probably before most aviation authorities specified that you follow TCAS over the ATC due to there being a missunderstanding in it's earlier days when TCAS was first implemented, most older pilots didn't trust the new system and chose to follow the ATC because in most situations you HAVE TO follow what the ATC says and can be reprimanded for not doing so. After the DHL crash over Europe EASA made it clear that all pilots just follow TCAS if there is conflicting information from the ATC.
Actually when the incident happend, most countries didn't specify that TCAS outruled ATC so it was a bit of a pilot's own judgement thing. I mean it took the 2002 Uberlingen mid-air collision (the DHL and Bashkirian mid-air collision, as misto has mentioned) for the rule that TCAS outruled ATC to really come into place and enforced everywhere.
@@MrMeerkat818 The fact that he didn't mention the Uberlingen collision is pretty disappointing as it is the exact same scenario but with an actual crash, and it changed aviation forever.

Just Doin Florida the thing is that you always listen to the ATC. If the ATC tells you something you ALWAYS do it. this is how all pilots including me were trained
I'm currently one of only a few people in Bristol Airport trying to get home. It's surreal. I'm sitting here alone in an eerily silent departure hall. All shops and restaurants are shut. No food or drink on board. Staff are telling us to make sure we use a vending machine for water. I've been trying to get home to Belfast for 3 days straight. Had 3 flights in a row cancelled last minute by easyJet but it seems I've been blessed with a miracle. One flight is running today with Ryanair to Dublin. Yes it's a bit annoying because Dublin is an international flight 3 hours away from where I live in Northern Ireland. So I'm now going from UK to Ireland and back to the UK again. As long as I'm on the island though I'm not stuck in Britain. Ryanair announced all flights are cancelled until June but this is the only flight running because they need to get the plane back to Dublin. There are only a couple other passengers. There's one shop half open, Superdrug, and the one guy working there just gave me a red bull, fanta, oasis and 3 grab bags of crisps for free. It's eerily quiet here, I may have bought 5 plane tickets total and am £350 in the hole but... I'm coming home boys!!!!!!!!!
Damn they went to jail. How could they go to jail if it wasn’t intentional. Getting fired or sued of course but jail seems odd knowing everyone was okay in the end.
@@mrmakeyourday7386 Not if some idiot jay walks in front of you giving you no time to react. Unless you're driving intoxicated on the sidewalk. There are nuances to this. Hit and run wouldn't help the driver even if it wasn't his/her fault.
I can understand the supervisor getting time for extreme negligence, however that's extremely harsh for a brand new trainee who was obviously put under someone deemed incompetent.
I also disagree with the jail sentence, what is a jail-sentence supposed to add? Are they supposed to learn from their mistake? They already lost their job. They didn't act with malice, they weren't intoxicated, especially the new controller on the job couldn't have known better than his supervisor. I think the only person that might be to blame could be the supervisor for not noticing she put to much pressure on the new controller... (and finally we don't know if she was in a situation she couldn't have performed better). Regardless I find a jail sentence to harsh, especially because jail sentences are there to make people reflect on their mistakes and to keep dangerous people away from society. I know in the US people see punishment more as a tool for revenge, but in the civilized world we still care about a sensible justice system. Jail sentences are meant to serve a purpose, not to just inflict pain on someone for your own entertainment. There is more than one way to hold someone accountable.
I don’t understand why the trainee would be given jail time for that? He’s literally a trainee you’d expect a mistake to be made, and since he literally fixed it, but because of a systematic error it didn’t reach the pilots
I would have thought that the manager of the trainee would have been imprisoned for, you know, not controlling the situation she created by placing an underqualified person with an excessive amount of responsibilities, then gave instructions to a nonexistent flight number (which she should have KNOWN was incorrect as the FREAKING MANAGER OF MANAGING THE GOD DAMN AIRWAYS!
Curious Cat that was the main cause of the überlingen disaster in the first place, with the baskierian airlines tu-154. Although I’m pretty sure they changed that worldwide not so long after. Seems a bit strange the artificial horizon is reverse though
I was actually thinking about the timeline of these because I know that after Überlingen, a decision was made that TCAS always overrides any conflicting other instruction from ATC. But it makes sense now, given that this incident in Japan happened before Überlingen.
Lachlan Keddie Another similar one but with the pilots fault was the Mato Grosso in 2006 in Brazil where the 737 got destroyed and the learhet survived
@@ReyMysterioX Pretty sure the rule would have been made after the japanese incident anyway. It's just that the Überlinger accident occured barely 1.5 years afterwards. I might be wrong but this was simply a case of investigations being just unluckily slow. The JAL report was published barely 11 days after the überlingen incident. It was actually that JAL report which prompted the ICAO to pass the rule.
Had they collided, this collision would be the deadliest aviation disaster at 677 possible deaths, surpassing even the 1977 Tenerife collision at 583 deaths.

This reminds me of the Uberlingen midair collision a year after this incident. The ATC personnel on-duty at that time was eventually murdered by the father of one of those deceased passengers.
It’s crazy how the actual Worst “accident” in Aviation history was due to the incompetence and hubris of one man who’s ego let him kill almost 600 people. But seriously who takes off on a runway they can’t see without clearance with the knowledge that runway is the only taxiway for the airport because they just taxied down it themselves?
This exact thing did happen over Germany, the planes received their TCAS alerts that would have worked, but Air Traffic Control gave one plane a conflicting order and the pilots listened to that order instead of the TCAS. The planes crashed and a guy even killed the Air Traffic Controller later on because his wife and two children were on the plane. It's known as the 2002 Überlingen mid-air collision and is a very interesting thing to read about.
Clearly not one of the worst events in the history of passenger aircrafts, a couple of years ago two planes actually crashed above my city, all passengers died. A few years later, the tower employee was murdered by a father whose son was on one of the planes.
Plane 1: "Oh? You're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right to me?" Plane 2: ""I can't duck right the f*ck under you without getting closer."
For those interested: Several mid-Air collisions have occurred with many fatalities: 2006 - GOL Airlines 737 and Private Jet collide over the Amazon in Brazil. The 737 crashes killing 154.

"It felt like 10 meters." It was actually like 110 meters. WHEN YOU'RE GOING 500+ MPH, THAT CHANGE IN 110 METERS IS DONE IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. THE MINDSET IS IN RELATION TO COMPARING THE MISS BEING NOT SO "NEAR" WITH REGARDS TO TWO CARS. THESE ARE TWO GIANT FREAKING PLANES TRAVELING HUNDREDS OF MILES PER HOUR! FOR COMPARISON, THE NEAR MISS FEELS THE SAME AS A 10 METER NEAR MISS IN TWO CARS TRAVELING TOWARDS EACHOTHER AT 60 MPH; HOWEVER, THE SCALES OF MEASUREMENTS BETWEEN THE TWO SCENARIOS CREATES THAT CHANGE IN 110 METERS IN THE SAME SPLIT SECOND OF DECISION- IE THE SAME FEELING OF NEARNESS!
I get what you're trying to portray but cars going 60mph can be roughly 3 meters seperated if you're traveling down a road that is not a dual carriageway.

Moral of the story: Don't give new ATC trainees so much work to do or else they might get overwhelmed by the fact that they have to instruct crew members from a dozen planes which might result into two planes nearly obliterating each other.
The moral of the story is LISTEN TO YOUR TRAFFIC COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (TCAS).

Additional information: IATA now rules that TCAS resolutions now have priority over instructions by ATC.
Two planes collided for this exact reason in 2002 over Germany
At Überlingen, the captain of the Boeing initiated descent according to TCAS recommendation, while at the same time the captain of the Tupolev ignored the TCAS advisory to climb in favour of an incorrect instruction from the ATC. Had both captains followed the TCAS instructions, the collision would have been avoided.
EDITED as I must've misunderstood the op's original message - indeed the 2002 collision happened because TCAS was NOT treated with priority at the time
it happened above the Bodensee as we call it wich is part of the Swiss Border if i am correct, one of the captains follows tcas while the other does listen to his flight guide(idk the shortcut) this guy then doesnt know what went wrong and that tcas is a tive and telling the pilot the right direction both are facing the same location at the same time and arrive there just like told,the top aircraft rushes through the entire passenger cabin and cuts the lower airplane into too much parts, only the cockpit remains and slowly faces the earths falling down with little movement remaining, pilots screaming like hell and not anymore being able to breath suffer their death coming slowly towards them, the others in the heavily damaged aircraft lost the rear wing entirely to turn left and right same as up and down, slowly moving towads the ground trying to rescue as much as possible without any hope and the aircraft just turning sideways very slowly, feeling this is unimaginable terrible and hurts your heart till you finally explode on the ground just to end your hell like terrible suffering as well, and after both planes explode the guide is trying to contact both aircrafts without 1 single response knowing that a hellfire tragedy has occured on his duty, he crashes mentally and leaves the controller room while someone replaces his working position for the rest of the duty, later the reporters arrive and the guide disappears not telling anything, months later a old man appears near his home with a murder knife slowly approaching the guides house and murdering him once the door is open, he got no answer to why he lost the person near him who died on the big crash, later this entire part of human history ends up in heaven and for the dead guide a red flower is added to the controllers room to thank for his services and remember the big accident

That's not fun. That's not fun at all.
When did the IATA make that ruling? Was it after the incident in Germany or the one in Japan?
Bruh you can't imprison them for being overwhelmed with their job.
That’s Japan for you.
Well, they did
Yes you can. Don’t take a job if you can’t handle it and the result of failure is the deaths of hundreds of people.
Yeah that’s what I thought, he got too harsh of a punishment. Yes, his error could have cost hundreds of lives, but for being a trainee he had too much to handle, and the higher ups that gave him that much work should have gotten in more trouble, not him
@@dangerfox1776 they have specific test to select the most qualified controller. you can't say it's the controller's fault for taking the job he was unqualified for. it's management fault for not hiring a qualified personnel

Kaze he is saying a feels bad goes to them, which is improper grammer if you do what you did, and not understand that “a feels bad” was completely intentional and a reference to a meme that is often used for reaction. So yes, he was intending to say it that way.
Tcas: an emergency system, your last line of defense against hitting another plane. Pilots that day: I'll ignore it.
Wasn't this before procedures around this were established? It was a culture issue I think. Do you obey the passive computer, or the human being working for the government who can report you?
US regulations make it clear that TCAS gets the final say but I'm not sure what the regs were in Japan at the time.
This is probably before most aviation authorities specified that you follow TCAS over the ATC due to there being a missunderstanding in it's earlier days when TCAS was first implemented, most older pilots didn't trust the new system and chose to follow the ATC because in most situations you HAVE TO follow what the ATC says and can be reprimanded for not doing so. After the DHL crash over Europe EASA made it clear that all pilots just follow TCAS if there is conflicting information from the ATC.
Actually when the incident happend, most countries didn't specify that TCAS outruled ATC so it was a bit of a pilot's own judgement thing. I mean it took the 2002 Uberlingen mid-air collision (the DHL and Bashkirian mid-air collision, as misto has mentioned) for the rule that TCAS outruled ATC to really come into place and enforced everywhere.
@@MrMeerkat818 The fact that he didn't mention the Uberlingen collision is pretty disappointing as it is the exact same scenario but with an actual crash, and it changed aviation forever.
Co-pilot: TCAS is saying we're about to crash, should we do something?

I'm currently one of only a few people in Bristol Airport trying to get home.
It's surreal. I'm sitting here alone in an eerily silent departure hall. All shops and restaurants are shut. No food or drink on board. Staff are telling us to make sure we use a vending machine for water.
I've been trying to get home to Belfast for 3 days straight. Had 3 flights in a row cancelled last minute by easyJet but it seems I've been blessed with a miracle. One flight is running today with Ryanair to Dublin. Yes it's a bit annoying because Dublin is an international flight 3 hours away from where I live in Northern Ireland. So I'm now going from UK to Ireland and back to the UK again. As long as I'm on the island though I'm not stuck in Britain.
Ryanair announced all flights are cancelled until June but this is the only flight running because they need to get the plane back to Dublin.
There are only a couple other passengers. There's one shop half open, Superdrug, and the one guy working there just gave me a red bull, fanta, oasis and 3 grab bags of crisps for free. It's eerily quiet here, I may have bought 5 plane tickets total and am £350 in the hole but...

@@mrmakeyourday7386 Not if some idiot jay walks in front of you giving you no time to react. Unless you're driving intoxicated on the sidewalk. There are nuances to this. Hit and run wouldn't help the driver even if it wasn't his/her fault.
I can understand the supervisor getting time for extreme negligence, however that's extremely harsh for a brand new trainee who was obviously put under someone deemed incompetent.
I also disagree with the jail sentence, what is a jail-sentence supposed to add? Are they supposed to learn from their mistake? They already lost their job. They didn't act with malice, they weren't intoxicated, especially the new controller on the job couldn't have known better than his supervisor. I think the only person that might be to blame could be the supervisor for not noticing she put to much pressure on the new controller... (and finally we don't know if she was in a situation she couldn't have performed better).
Regardless I find a jail sentence to harsh, especially because jail sentences are there to make people reflect on their mistakes and to keep dangerous people away from society. I know in the US people see punishment more as a tool for revenge, but in the civilized world we still care about a sensible justice system. Jail sentences are meant to serve a purpose, not to just inflict pain on someone for your own entertainment. There is more than one way to hold someone accountable.

I don’t get jail time either. I understand serious consequences because you have people’s lives in your hands.
Simultaneously keeping track of 12 planes is not a one man job, especially as a trainee. Change my mind.
I would have thought that the manager of the trainee would have been imprisoned for, you know, not controlling the situation she created by placing an underqualified person with an excessive amount of responsibilities, then gave instructions to a nonexistent flight number (which she should have KNOWN was incorrect as the FREAKING MANAGER OF MANAGING THE GOD DAMN AIRWAYS!

Aviation rule: in the event of possible traffic collision TCAS has priority over an air traffic controller!
Airbus would take control and climb
That rule came into existence because of this near miss and the Uberlingen mid-air collision. It didn't exist at the time.
That rule didn’t come in until a year later when pretty much this exact incident occurred again but this time killing everyone on board.
Not in Russia (seriously). Russians also have the artificial horizon reversed (seriously).

It's disturbing that a year later an actual collision caused by eerily similar circumstances occurred over Überlingen, Germany...
I was actually thinking about the timeline of these because I know that after Überlingen, a decision was made that TCAS always overrides any conflicting other instruction from ATC. But it makes sense now, given that this incident in Japan happened before Überlingen.
Lachlan Keddie I was so sad because one of the flights was a school trip
Lachlan Keddie Another similar one but with the pilots fault was the Mato Grosso in 2006 in Brazil where the 737 got destroyed and the learhet survived
@@ReyMysterioX Pretty sure the rule would have been made after the japanese incident anyway. It's just that the Überlinger accident occured barely 1.5 years afterwards. I might be wrong but this was simply a case of investigations being just unluckily slow. The JAL report was published barely 11 days after the überlingen incident. It was actually that JAL report which prompted the ICAO to pass the rule.

This exact thing did happen over Germany, the planes received their TCAS alerts that would have worked, but Air Traffic Control gave one plane a conflicting order and the pilots listened to that order instead of the TCAS. The planes crashed and a guy even killed the Air Traffic Controller later on because his wife and two children were on the plane. It's known as the 2002 Überlingen mid-air collision and is a very interesting thing to read about.

FOR COMPARISON, THE NEAR MISS FEELS THE SAME AS A 10 METER NEAR MISS IN TWO CARS TRAVELING TOWARDS EACHOTHER AT 60 MPH; HOWEVER, THE SCALES OF MEASUREMENTS BETWEEN THE TWO SCENARIOS CREATES THAT CHANGE IN 110 METERS IN THE SAME SPLIT SECOND OF DECISION- IE THE SAME FEELING OF NEARNESS!
I get what you're trying to portray but cars going 60mph can be roughly 3 meters seperated if you're traveling down a road that is not a dual carriageway.
Imagine looking out the window and seeing a plane speed towards you...
I would die out of a heart attack

*In flight 958's cockpit:*
"Should we go up or down?
"Go up"
"What if they go up too"
"Well, let's do nothing, the other flight would probably steer past."
*Flight 907's cabin:*
"Should we do nothing?"
"thats probably what the other planes pilots are thinking too. Let's go down"
