What happens when both engines fail in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?
Air Transat Flight 236 became one of the most incredible survival stories in aviation history when an Airbus A330 carrying 306 people lost BOTH engines at 35,000 feet. With no power, no fuel, and no way to restart the engines, the aircraft silently glided more than 120 km toward a small island in the Azores.
In this video, we break down the full story of Air Transat 236 — from the hidden maintenance mistake that caused the fuel leak to the unbelievable emergency landing that saved every single passenger onboard.
This incident would become the longest engine-out glide ever performed by a commercial passenger aircraft.
What you'll learn in this video:
• What caused the fuel leak
• Why both engines failed
• How the pilots controlled the aircraft without power
• The role of the Ram Air Turbine
• The emergency landing at Lajes Air Base
Aviation accidents often reveal the most incredible examples of human skill and training. This is one of them.
Watch until the end to see how Captain Robert Piché and First Officer Dirk de Jager pulled off one of the greatest emergency landings in aviation history.
