概要
A chilling gap between two pictures of the same flight: investigators later found the left wing struck Monte Cinto and placed a plaque at the precise impact point amid 27 tons of wreckage and human remains after 27 years - so how did searchers spend the first hours looking at the sea instead of the mountain? What did the final nine seconds reveal about a crew, a controller, and a route no one there had flown before?
In this episode, we tell the sequence of events on the approach to Ajaccio Airport on 1 September 1981, how navigation and communication left a jet descending into Corsica’s highest massif, and why those last nine seconds mattered. Could different information in the cockpit or on the ground have changed what happened?
Event: Crash of Inex-Adria DC-9 YU-AJO
Date: 1 September 1981
People aboard: 180
Wreckage recovered: 27 tons
Time from GPWS to impact: 9 seconds
- The aircraft was a DC-9 operated by Inex-Adria Aviopromet registered YU-AJO with 683 flight hours.
- Investigators placed a plaque at the exact point where the left wing first made contact with the mountain.
- Human remains were still tangled in debris after 27 years on the slope.
- Ajaccio Airport had no radar; the controller’s picture of the aircraft’s position came solely from voice transmissions.
- The first officer had received his commercial pilot license 20 days before the flight and his young son was aboard and heard on the cockpit voice recording naming Monte Cinto.
