- On monday 26 June 1978, a McDonnell Douglas DC-9-32 registration CF-TLV, attempted to take off from runway 23L, but a sudden noise and vibration changed the course of the flight. Don't forget to sub to support the channel.
Nice job Mauricio !
I think this crash could have been minimized greatly IF EMAS system was in place - it hadn't been developed yet though.
EMAS is an emergency runway excursion arrestor system that is laid at the end of runways for a few hundred feet normally (depending upon available space).
It's a mixture of Portland cement, styrofoam and gravel that is laid level with the runway surface - it can be walked on but deforms, fractures and "catches" the landing gear & tires akin to a mud bog might.
Like a sand filled "runaway truck ramp" used on steep mountain grades, but for planes.
In a very compact space the EMAS system greatly slows or stops a runway excursion plane - frequently with little or no damage & saving lives.
Thanks for your videos, they’re refreshing short, focusing on the key aspects of an accident. Also for featuring lesser known accidents, I’d never have known otherwise, as many similar pages tend to document the same old more infamous tragedies. Thankyou for your excellent presentation. And very sad for the two people who didn’t make it out of this accident alive.
Air Canada’s old livery looked especially nice on the DC-9, if you ask me🇨🇦
Almost all liveries looked better back then, if you consider plain white fuselages to even be a livery.
These videos are impressive, very realistic looking. One of the better ones out there.
When I was a kid I used to clip articles about plane crashes and keep them in individual files. This accident was the very first one I clipped from the paper - I can remember the picture exactly. It was a close-up of the forward fuselage taken from the starboard side, and showed the split in the fuselage about 30 feet aft of the nose, just ahead of the wing.
Sick 🤕
@@paulluna6379 at the time I wanted to be an NTSB investigator. Ultimately I knew I wouldn’t be able to handle the gruesome aspects of aviation accidents. So I studied to be a pilot…
Great video and great work from Colombia
NICE outro music. Another great vid. I thought the same as marks6663 - I can't believe they hadn't filled in that ravine, seems to have been the simplest remedy.
I love these cockpit views of the impacts!
I do think the videos are a bit fast-paced and we could see more crash info, tho
Great work. Thanks 😊
Airports should have 3 miles of flat and empty fields beyond the ends of runways. So many needless disasters could be avoided. Cities without adequate empty land for a proper airport shouldn't be magnets for further investment and development.
Atlanta the busiest airport has no room for runoff. If something happens there cars will be taken out because 2 interstate roads surround it
The situation always becomes critical in these videos. But if it didn't I guess they wouldn't be worth watching.
The plane fell into the gully of the Etobicoke creek at the end of the runway, the same gully Air France 358 fell into. They refuse to fill it in.
Well that's just dumb.

I have written this before & I do write ✍️ it again, there is NO such thing whatsoever as a (first officer) ,the correct name for the pilot on the right hand side of the a/c is CO-pilot & nothing else, period! 😢😢

How would you define "first officer"?
