Film to watch when everything goes wrong
 
Do you sometime feel an uncontrollable urge to cry in a movie? :(

Yeah, I remember watching this show when it originally aired decades ago, truly heart wrenching.

There are whole channels of aviation crashes and investigations. Always sad to watch, but reminders of how things can go so horribly wrong.

For this group, there was a B17 with paying "flying experience" passengers on board being operated by the Collins Foundation. Just about everything from my limited knowledge of multiengine flying went 100% Tango Uniform. The aircraft had problems, the guys up front weren't talking between themselves, they didn't talk to tower enough, and then they had a bad line for landing.

Imagine how someone with their HMV had a similarly disastrous day? Ours don't crash as spectacularly, but people can be hurt just as quickly.

Unfortunately, the film screen comes up with a 'not available to watch in the USA, due to copyright issues' with PBS.
