What a tragedy...that was one very good looking aircraft! Too bad about the "icing" condition that the pilot thought was not a problem!! Thank you for the great video!!
Great Work and video MPC and Rest In Peace team Machester United 1958 🙏🏻🌹🕊 from Colombia 🇨🇴
How many times does the plane need to say "not today".
I put this down to pilot error. Slush congealed on the undercarriage at takeoff making the plane much heavier and dragging on it. There is a rule in aviation if you try something twice and it doesn't work you do not try a third time. In this case the obvious cause of slush on the runway was not rectified.
This is the rule not only for aviation 😮
Sad - after the second failed attempt- I would’ve stayed in the terminal- and worried about ice. My condolences
Its mid night 12.34 am in india by bell icon turned on I’m watching this❤❤
so very sad 😢
@ 4:47 Allianz arena was already built in 1958!😅
New it was going to be ice sitting so long in the snow RIP
I don't see how the Captain could be entirely exonerated. Even if he is given the benefit of the doubt regarding the de-icing, one of the engines was clearly not working properly causing the first 2 take off attempts to be cancelled.. The problem was occuring again on the 3rd attempt and there was likely sufficient time to abourt that take off also. But I don't think the 3rd attempt should have been made at all given the first 2 take off runs. It does not appear that a full investigation of the engine was performed. Instead it was decided to start the take off run more slowly in an attempt to "get round" a known engine problem. Verry possibly the Captain felt pressure to get the flight completed given the celebrity status of his passengers. The slush was a major factor but they should never have been making that 3rd attempt in deteriorating weather and a known engine problem.
If I'm on an airplane and they abort the takeoff, I'm off the airplane immediately, I don't care what the circumstances are.
If there were issues on take off why did they try again thrn sevond tske off yoo fast id be sorry out it was madness then weather was bad how many things does it take before you call it a day
What is that black wire over the top of the plane that goes from the front to the back?
Aerial antenna
It's the cable used to control the ruder.

What idiots. How many red flags do you need to cancel a flight.
Hello Air Florida. Sound familiar?
Too busy trying to blame each other to even bother to realize that the idiot captain was the problem the whole time. Just like a lot of crashes stupid people making stupid decisions. You would think they would actually make it harder for you to be able to get a commercial pilots license especially back in 1958 let alone current times. I don't care if you flew in the Air Force especially the British Air force that doesn't Qualify you to fly other humans around.
No mention of the 2 aborted attempts, with engine problems, c'mon, that's bullshit.
The germans blamed the British captain...of course they would.
Especially since they should of because he was an idiot who had several warning signs not to take off that day.
And the British were equally determined that he was not to blame in the face of contrary evidence.
