Reviews three fatal aviation tragedies, each driven by a chain of preventable mechanical errors, maintenance failures, and human mistakes.
The first case describes the 1975 crash of a U.S. Air Force C-5A Galaxy during Operation Babylift. Faulty cargo door locks, incorrectly installed during maintenance, failed shortly after takeoff. The door tore away, causing explosive decompression and severing critical control systems, leaving the crew unable to fully control the aircraft.
The second incident examines the 2005 ditching of Tuninter Flight 1153. A wrong fuel quantity indicator had been installed during maintenance, giving the crew false confidence that the aircraft carried sufficient fuel. In reality, the tanks were nearly empty. Both engines flamed out over the sea, forcing a water landing after all power was lost.
The final account focuses on the 2007 loss of Adam Air Flight 574. While troubleshooting a malfunctioning navigation system, the crew became distracted and lost situational awareness. The aircraft gradually rolled into an extreme bank and entered a rapid dive, revealing deeper issues within the airline’s training, maintenance culture, and oversight.
Together, these investigations show how systemic failures, overlooked maintenance errors, and lapses in cockpit discipline can combine to create disasters that were entirely avoidable.
