In addition to the amazing skills of the pilot and co-pilot, major credit also needs to go to Michelle Honda. She moved through the cabin - without restraints and by hanging on to the seats - and got every single passenger into a flotation vest and into the brace position. And then rather than strapping herself in, she shielded her injured co-worker for the duration of the landing. I remember seeing an interview with the pilot not long after this happened. He said that once the plane was landed and stopped, he was certain he was going to look back into the cabin and see carnage and empty seats. What he saw were all the passengers, many injured but all of them safely in their seats. That entire crew were the definition of professionalism.

I was the reporter at the Maui radio station who originally broke this story. Someone called me anonymously in the newsroom and told me there was an aircraft emergency coming into the Kahului airport. I followed up with contacts I had and fairly quickly found out what was happening. That was the scariest story I ever covered and the death of the flight attendant was heart-breaking. However, the survival of everyone else aboard was truly a miracle and the pilots' and the remaining crews' professionalism was nothing short of heroic. Those passengers owe their lives to these people. Thank god for them.

We mentioned this to the airline attendant before we disembarked. We were flying from Maui to Oahu. I have watched this documentary at least half dozen times and to this day, it terrifies me to think if we had traveled one week later. I am so so grateful that this airline had a brilliant pilot.

His skill level and level headed approach to flying saved this flight from disaster. A lot of luck was involved but if it was not for the experienced crew of that flight there would be more dead. Bob retired from Aloha Airlines and still to this day lives in Hawaii. I call him a hero but he does not like that term. They all did what they are trained to do day in day out.

One thing the documentary forgot to mention is that the 737 was flying with only ONE engine! Two things could have caused the failure. Either at the moment the explosive depressurization happened, a couple of chunks of debris flew into the left engine or the warped structure eventually severed the wires in the bottom of the plane that kept the engine running. The fact they were able to land that heavily damaged plane with one engine is incredible! Also, despite the accident, Mimi Tompkins actually did get her promotion to Captain!

It's such an important thing to remember in life that being rude or awkward is a lot better than being dead. If you think someone is being weird and uncomfortable, tell them and someone else. 99% of the time it's just someone being socially awkward, but 1% of the time your gut is right and that person is stalking you. You think someone is following you at night, but you don't want to offend them? Do it anyway. You see a crack on your airplane but don't want to be rude? Point it out anyway. It's difficult, but very important.

When I joined my dad told me, "This is not a job to take lightly. There are a lot of people that put their life in your hands. It's not like a car where if something happens you just pull over. You are dealing with defying physics and you don't want your neglect to show blood on your hands." That just always stuck with me and was on my "A" game all the time.

I also find it tragic that people are so much against a society with autonomous cars, when its literally autonomy that makes planes so safe. Remove the Autopilot and the number of fatal accidents will increase rather rapidly. Autopilots are so good that they're even used on cruise ships to make them safer. And several types of trains use Autopilot too. It's honestly ridiculous that society won't accept autonomous cars, trucks and buses. It would instantly be safer to travel and any accidents that would happen, would be easy to fix and make certain they won't happen again.

@efulmer8675 2 жыл бұрын

@@Arterexius The reason for the rejection I hear most often is the assumption of the car being completely autonomous and the subsequent loss of control. On a plane, there is a pilot up there and they have a significant amount of control. In an autonomous car, the assumption is that the driver will have very little or no possible control, which then makes the question of "do I live or die" no longer in the hands of the driver if something goes wrong, but in the team of software engineers who thought about that scenario or not.

And this is why you keep your seatbelt fastened even when the seatbelt sign is off.

@danni1993 2 жыл бұрын

@Atlas Apexor I agree. My sister flies quite a bit going on vacations and is a nervous flyer. She always needs a couple of drinks or an antianxiety pill. I always tell her not to do those things, because you need to be alert to make good, quick decisions if something goes wrong.

Nowadays they keep the seatbelt lights on throughout the entire flight. People are allowed to get up and walk about but those remaining in their seats have to keep their seatbelts fastened.

The pilot and the co-pilot was excellent to do their job with a great confidence and without panic also the control tower incharge who immediately made all the emergency effort, ambulance,fire fighter,he checked the nose landing gear is ok and his continuous contact with the pilot is awesome. Great task to save all the passenger. Sad for the one missing crew RIP.

What if you have to go potty? I agree with you though! I've always been afraid to fly, but totally fascinated by aviation. And that they can make such a large & heavy piece of metal fly in the air. I began flying in 2017 with my service animal... He made it absolutely possible for me to do so, even though I was still pretty nervous until my third flight, which ended up being the first time I allowed myself to enjoy the process.

AF pilot's daughter here. I never, ever unbuckle my seat belt except to go to the bathroom. My head would be between my knees instantly, and stayed there (while praying)! With the buffeting winds, I am astonished that the passengers remained sitting up! The pilot's skill in an insane emergency, and the courage and dedication of Michelle Honda, were absolutely amazing. Consummate professionals.

Says a lot for their training. They are taught to put their own fears aside and put passengers first. Even when they know they are facing their own death. It's takes a great person to be able to absorb that training and apply it on this level tho. Most people couldnt.

One of the finest "air disaster" videos ever! I live in Hawaii and remember clearly when that accident happened. A colleague of mine was a member of the Aloha's Board of Directors, and after receiving the call, her first words were "We lost CB..." Didn't know who she was, but distinctly remember those words...and it's obvious that dear lady must have been so well known and liked by everyone at Aloha.

These smaller airlines really create close bonds in the staff, especially flight and cabin crews. My dad worked for Cayman Airways still every time we go to the airport so many stop to speak with him. It really becomes like a second family for them. Makes the death of CB all that more painful.

Must have been even harder for your friend when it was determined maintenance practices were responsible, something I presume was well within the scope of said board of directors? How did your friend take it had this friend always pushed that something like this could happen and was overruled by the others, or just as oblivious? Must have been rough either way, on top of losing CB.
