Investigating The Crash Onboard Flight 593 | Kid In The Cockpit | Mayday: Air Disaster

Описание: PART 2 | Investigators learn that having a 15-year-old at the controls wasn't the only factor in the crash of Flight 593.

No one in the cockpit knew that in this new Airbus, part of the auto-pilot would disconnect if the control column was turned against the autopilot and no alarm sounded. The pilots also weren't trained properly to recover from a dangerous situation.

The tragic accident of Flight 593 changed the way pilots were trained on the new Airbus and forced the aviation industry to give pilots a better understanding of how to recover from so-called "upset" situations.

Season 3 Episode 10 "Kid In The Cockpit": On March 23, 1994, Russain International Airlines Flight 593 left Moscow's Airport to Hong Kong. The captain's children were on board and whilst the captain and co-pilot had the plane running on autopilot, they invited the children into the cockpit. After the son sat down, the plane began banking steeply and started falling from the sky in a wild corkscrew spin. The son was trapped in the pilot's position. When the captain managed to get back into his seat, it was too late. Flight 593 crashed into the snowy mountains of Siberia and everyone on board was killed.
