Imagine the disbelief of the investigators the first time they listened to the CVR.
-
The fact that the kid was quicker to realize that the plane was diving than the pilots makes it much more terrifying.
-
I can't understand why the captain didn't IMMEDIATELY take control the minute he knew something was wrong while there was yet time. This crash is unbelievable. I could see the captain letting the kids come to the door and look at the cockpit but to let them sit in his seat and take the controls is purely insane.
-
Ignoring the fact he let his kids fiddle with the controls, the fact they seemingly saved the plane only to be way too low and crash anyways is extremely sad.
-
They speak of all the reasons this happened and how this all could have been avoided.....however, no matter how you slice it, the father had no business letting kids take the pilot seat.
-
When the kid Said “hey why is it turning” the captain should’ve gotten right back to his seat and taken control immediately . Even if they were confused with the situation. 🙃 unbelievable..
-
This one made my blood boil. How can someone be so irresponsible. I don't get it. RIP. What a terrible tragedy.
-
Can you imagine watching children walk into the cockpit and then a couple minutes later the plane starts bank? There is definitely dark humor in that. Whoever witnessed the kids going into the cockpit were probably thinking "Ah sh*t, I knew it!"
-
"Would you like to pilot the plane?" "Noo." Kid had more sense than the father
-
It’s painful how this could have been avoided. It’s so sad that one mans decision changed lives forever.
-
I’ve been on a binge of these. And they are almost always tragic. But this one hits differently. Malfunctions, weather, maintenance negligence, communication errors happen a lot. This was so easily avoidable and such gross negligence. I’m so sorry for the people who died because of the captain and first in command. So very sorry. It doesn’t matter how much they spin it. It was the captains fault. Not the kids. Not the uncles’. It was the captain. Period.
-
It's really shocking. It's more disastrous than as if a surgeon allowing his child to operate on a patient. Gosh..RIP departed souls.
-
At 17:00, without hesitation the pilot should've said get up, let me sit back down. Very dumb, worse than allowing the teenager to fly.
-
Can we give another round of a applause for the acting in this series? Seriously, can Hollywood contact this show about hiring kid actors? Impressive stuff!
-
That kid wasn't even old enough to see a R rated movie! He's flying a plane to the ground!
-
I am heartbroken for the mother. She lost both of her children and her husband due to her husband's unbelievably idiotic actions. I can't even begin to imagine how that must feel.
-
He shouldn't have let the kids into the cockpit, he did. He shouldn't have let them sit in the pilot's seat, he did. He shouldn't have let them touch anything, he did. He shouldn't have left him unattended without closely monitoring, he did. Even the co-pilot wasn't monitoring. He should have immediately jumped into his seat, he didn't. Oh god!
-
It's amazing how most of the plane accidents end up making plane travel safer and safer
-
I am truly convinced that this wasn’t the first time that this particular pilot had his son sitting in a pilot seat and allowed to manipulate controls while the plane was flying. The mother did mention that the kids frequently traveled with their father.
-
The guy who brought them in is crazy, he could’ve just let the kids sleep and dream.
