The untouched flap handle doomed the takeoff - did they make it?
In this episode, we follow the minute-by-minute lead-up to the LAPA Flight 3142 accident, tracing crew actions, aircraft status, and procedural breakdowns that preceded the runway overrun. The episode asks how checklists, warnings, and certification failures intersected - and whether timely action could have changed the outcome.
Event: LAPA Flight 3142
Date: August 31, 1999
Location: Aeroparque Jorge Newbery, Buenos Aires
Aircraft: Boeing 737-200, registration LV-WRZ
People on board: 100 (95 passengers, 5 crew)
- Captain Gustavo Weigel boarded and interacted with dispatch; his pilot license had expired and personnel files logged repeated checklist and command weaknesses.
- First officer Luis Etcheverry, the junior pilot, arrived separately and ordered 8,500 kg of fuel before boarding procedures proceeded.
- The aircraft was airworthy with functioning engines, hydraulics, brakes, and thrust reversers; the airframe had logged 64,564 flight hours and 38,680 cycles.
- The takeoff checklist card was found intact and unworn in its holder, and cockpit recorders captured a timeline showing flaps were never extended.
- Investigators documented a paper trail of warnings, a cockpit warning light that activated and was ignored, and repeated certifications that overlooked documented procedural struggles.
