Tech Fail or Human Error? American Airlines Flight 965 Vanished in Darkness! | Mayday: Air Disaster

Описание: American Airlines Flight 965, a Boeing 757, faced a catastrophic runway error during its final approach to Cali, Colombia, just before Christmas in 1995. Delays in Miami and seasonal traffic contributed to a two-hour late departure. Incomplete communication with air traffic control, misinterpretation of instructions, and the crew's failure to retract speed brakes led the aircraft off course by over 10 miles, resulting in a critical navigational error and putting the flight on a dangerous path.
