  • On August 21, 1995, Flight ASA 529 took off from Atlanta, Georgia, headed for Gulfport, Mississippi. Shortly after take-off there was a loud thud, followed by a continual thumping noise. The 26 Passengers on board could see that one of the four propeller blades was now just a stub and the mangled mass of the engine was glued to the left wing. The plane was now effectively flying on one wing!
    What caused propeller failure?

    Mayday: Air Disaster - From Season 2 Episode 2 "A Wounded Bird": Captain Ed Gannaway and First Officer Matt Warmerdam were unaware of what had happened. They couldn’t see what the passengers could see and were desperately trying to wrestle control of the damaged aircraft. The plane was losing altitude at an alarming rate. A quiet panic was spreading through the cabin. The Flight Attendant, Robin Fetch, closed all the window blinds. One passenger scribbled a farewell note to her children.
    Mayday: Air Disaster is a dramatic non-fiction series that investigates high-profile air disasters to uncover how and why they happened. Mayday: Air Disaster follows survivors, family members of crash victims and transportation safety investigators as they piece together the evidence of the causes of major accidents.

      He was probably just trying to retell the story chronologically, and considering the circumstances at the time, who wouldn’t be at least a little frustrated from stress? He probably wasn’t grateful during the moment because of that conversation, but I think he still appreciated what she did when he thought about it afterwards.

    I once burnt my hand while cooking. It was easily the most pain I've felt in my life, and that was just a 2nd degree burn on half of one hand. I can't imagine the pain of having 90% of your skin burnt. I hope they rest in peace.

    • @Author.Noelle.Alexandria

      I had a very large torso burn, deep second degree (close to third, but not quite there), and the pain was so bad that I couldn't handle the thought of going to the ER since it would have meant being covered up and not being able to alternate ice, a cold cloth, and I can't even remember the third thing. I got very lucky to not get an infection, but also had Silvedene on hand (that cream they were applying to the burn victims). I didn't have lasting scars either, which is a major miracle. I did manage to go in a couple days later, which is how I know it was deep second. My doctor was stunned.

      ​​​​@@ausjen I have, and burns are , by far, much more painful than giving birth! Not to mention that childbirth is typically over within 24 to 48 hours, and you, hopefully, have the benefit of taking a beautiful newborn baby home with you.
      Burns don't heal within 24 to 48 hours and are excruciatingly painful for a minimum of several days. There's absolutely zero comparison to childbirth.

      I've had a couple of very bad sunburns that turned out to be 2nd degree burns on my legs and arms (this was before people emphasized putting sunscreen on your children). The pain was so bad I couldn't walk very well; couldn't sleep much; and couldn't bath or sit down without a lot of pain! I had lot of blisters, too.
      But, that's nothing compared to what the victims of this crash had to go through. Despite the already existing pain, they have to have their bodies scrubbed every day to prevent infection. Thank goodness for medically induced comas! Except, I've heard the scrubs are so painful that people in medically induced comas still react to the scrubs. Hopefully they at least don't remember them.
      IMO, the ones who passed away right away from the accident were the lucky ones, since they didn't have to suffer the way the survivors did.

Older episodes are slightly more emotional in my opinion (I think 60:40 emotional:technical) the older episodes are more touching with some exact details (scars, victims dialogues, eyewitnesses & 1st responders interview, etc)...

    I first watched this episode when I was in Kindergarten and really enjoyed it, especially the part where the passenger was trying to break the cockpit window. I would frequently watch it up until I was 10 years old. Only when I was 16 did I realize how terrible it was for these passengers who had to run through the fuselage on fire and become even more ignited when rolling in the jet-fuel soaked grass.
    Even all the passengers made it out, 4 died at the scene including deputy fire fighter Charles Barton who had all of his hair burned off. The lady who wrote a note on the cover lost her foot in the crash and her mother died 4 months later of a heart attack. The last passenger out of the plane was Jim Kennedy, as he ran through the fire his lungs caught on fire. Robin Fech told Chuck Pfisterer to strip off almost all of his clothes to extinguish the fire on him but Kennedy died of asphyxiation due to his lungs burning.
    When Steve Chadwick pulled Matt Warmerdam out of the cockpit, he considered him a fatality due to how horrific his burns were.

      The lack of standard phraseologies used by both pilots and air traffic controllers is lamentable. The captain should have looked at the wing once he realised that he could not understand why the aircraft was behaving as it was, and then he should immediately have declared a MAYDAY situation. Air traffic control must respond to this call as a full scale emergency - to do this they must have appropriate information. Their questions in this regard would have lead to both pilots and air traffic controllers being fully aware of what was really happening. The Hostie was marvellous, but she is required to tell the captain what she saw, not assume that he knows. The possibility of structural wing failure was ever present, and the crew needed to know this as early as possible, and keep the airspeed as low as practical and thus reduce aerodynamic loads as much as possible. In air traffic control you are taught not to transfer an aircraft in an emergency to another frequency - this should not have been done, and the controller used incorrect and abbreviated phraseology to do so, creating the possibility of confusion at a time when this must not occur. Pilots and air traffic controllers should not make mistakes, and an emergency is not the time to make them.

      Better training might have helped here: she knew the plane could get by on a single engine and the cockpit was aware they had a problem. She probably just assumed they knew the exact problem and didn't want to bother them while they managed it. If she had understood that a condition like that needed to be reported ASAP or that she ought to report anything she sees even if she thinks they must already know I'm pretty certain she would have notified the cockpit. Unfortunately, in the end, I'm not sure it would have changed much.
