Patrons! What incident would you like me to cover next?
Added 2023-01-24 12:40:50 +0000 UTCI'm in the early stages of researching two different incidents. Which would you like to see most?
Olympic 411 - A 747 which suffered an engine failure on take off from Athens, and barely scraped it back to the airport without crashing into the city.
Iberia 610 - A 727 which, due to bad CRM and bad navigation, crashed into a mast on approach to Bilbao in Spain.
They're both really interesting stories, but whichever get the most votes, I'l cover next!

Thanks Julie! Appreciate this - I'm making the Iberia one now!
2023-01-29 16:53:58 +0000 UTCThanks for this, Simon! And I love to hear that the Air India episode is what got you into my channel, I really enjoyed making that video. Your point about the Olympic plane having a miraculous resolution is well taken. It's much more rewarding to watch these when things go well. But as you say, the Iberia accident has gotten very little coverage. It would be great to do a proper job of it. I appreciate you including your reasoning in this comment, as it's going to be useful when I make future episodes :) Emmet
2023-01-29 16:52:12 +0000 UTCI agree with Simon. I chose Iberia because I've already seen videos on Olympic, though it is a gripping story indeed! I'm always keen to learn about one I've never heard of before and so my vote is for Iberia.
