Investigation of aircraft Airline Airlines airplane crash in DC
Authorities are investigating how two aircraft break in the air, despite normal flight models and communications.
On Wednesday, a passenger plane of American Airlines and US Army helicopter collided over Potomac in Washington, DC staff said there were no survivors among the 67 people in both crafts, making it the most deadly air accident in the US 25 years.
In Nevada, the deadliest plane crash was in 1964. Four engines run by California Paradise Airlines traveling from Oakland, crashed in a mountain near Taho Lake after two unsuccessful landing attempts at a nearby airport.
Here is a look at remarkable plane crashes in Nevada’s history:
January 16, 1942: Twa Flight 3
Hollywood star Carol Lombard, wife of Clark Gable, was aboard the Twa Flight 3, which crashes shortly after his departure from McCarran Field in Las Vegas.
The crash killed Lombard and 21 other people when the plane crashed into the Mountain of Potosi southwest from the current National Red Rock Canyon conservation zone.
The beacon, which could have prevented a clash with the mountain, was expelled because of fears that Japanese military aircraft would be ready to attack the Western United States during World War II.
November 17, 1955: C-54 crash in Mt. Charleston
During a raging storm in the spring mountains near Las Vegas, the US Air Force C-54 made a routine trip from Burbank, California, to Zone 51 in South Nevada, where the military worked on the U-2 aircraft.
Due to the secrecy of the military base, the C-54 crew has never been in contact with air traffic control. The aircraft took a new route that would cut 10 minutes from the total flight time, but was blown up from the storm course.
The aircraft failed to clear Charleston Peak with only 50 feet. All 14 crew members died.
Due to the secrecy around the area 51 and the Cold War at that time, the crash and its victims were largely hidden for decades, even by the victims’ families.
The 1998 investigation of tourist Stephen Riri has closed families when he confirms the death and cause of the victims. Riri also brought the investigation of legislators, which led to the first national Memorial of Cold War veterans. The memorial is already on the scene of the Charleston Peak.
April 21, 1958: UNITED AIR Lines Flight 736
More than five decades ago, a fighter from the Airforce Nellis base collided with a united Airlines flight from Los Angeles 21,000 feet over the Las Vegas Valley southwest. He killed the two men aboard the fighter and 47 people of the airline.
The crash happened when the Air Force Student Pilot practiced a maneuver that included climbing up to 28,000 feet and diving almost vertically to “simulate a quick insertion into enemy airspace.”
The incident became a national example of the need for further precautions for traveling in the United States and was specifically mentioned by then-President Dwight Eisenhower when signing the Federal Aviation Law, which ordered what is now the federal aviation administration and many modern flights Safety measures.
This is also one of the reasons for military flight practices that they are no longer permitted over cities or commercial corridors.
March 1, 1964: Flight 901a Paradise Airlines
More than 60 years ago, passengers went on a flight of Paradise Airlines in California 901A in Auckland for what would be the most deadly flight in Nevada’s history. The plane made plans to stop in Salinas and San Jose, California, before arriving at Tahoe Lake Airport. However, after failing to land in Taho Lake due to low visibility due to a snowstorm, the pilot decided to change the course and try to land in Renault.
The low visibility, combined with a compass malfunction, made the plane crash in a mile south of Genoa Peak in Nevada. The reports say that if the plane was 100 feet higher, it would clear the passage.
There were no survivors. The 85 people on board the aircraft were not found in the snow until the next morning.
November 15, 1964: Flight 114 of Bonanza Air Lines 114
A misinterpretation of the diagram of the aircraft captain may have led to a premature descent during a storm near Las Vegas, which led to a crash of flight 114. The crash killed all 29 people on board the passenger plane.
The same year was the most deadly for airplane trips in Nevada, with 116 deaths. In addition to the catastrophe of Paradise and Bonanza, another Austin incident on August 26, 1964 killed two staff of the forest services while they were agricultural sprays.
August 30, 1978: Flight 44 of Las Vegas Airlines 44
Flight 44 Las Vegas Airlines 44 crashes while taking off in a field near what is now Rancho Drive and Cheyenne Avenue in North Las Vegas. The plane was directed to Santa Anna, California, but hit the ground 1000 feet from the end of the track.
The crash happened because of a bolt malfunction that caused the pilot not to stop the aircraft from a flying nose up and stop, Las Vegas Review Journal reports. All 10 people on board the aircraft were killed.
January 21, 1985: Flight of the Galaxy Airline 203
On January 21, 1985, the Galaxy Airlines Flight 203 crashed into the Renault field on South Virginia Street and Neil Rhode shortly after the departure at 1 am. 71 passengers and crew on board. Only one person, 17-year-old George Lamson, Jr., survived the crash.
The aircraft descended when pilot Alan Heisley responded incorrectly to vibration by ordering a reduction in engine power.
The Galaxy Grove, a memorial tribute to the passengers and crew of the Galaxy Flight 203, is dedicated to Rancho San Rafael Park in 1986 and has a bronze plaque among a pine trees.
January 21, 1985: Steve Fawcett plane crash
The aircraft of the millionaire adventurer Steve Fotet disappeared over the great desert of the pool on September 3, 2007.
The 63-year-old Fotece, known for his solo flights around the world in planes and hot air balloons, went alone to a single-speed, two-seater aerobic aircraft around 9am, from Ranch’s private airport near Jerrington, owned by Mogul Barron Hotel Hilton. He failed to return, as scheduled a few hours later.
The demand for 7,500 square miles continued a few days from Mindon-Taho Airport in Douglas County, with 14 aircraft from the civilian patrol, the Nevada National Guard and Falon Naval Aviation between Jerrington and Bishop, California, all duty.
The Fotet plane was found only a year later on September 29, 2008 by two tourists exploring the area. The probable cause of the crash was “the negligent meeting of the pilot with reductions that exceed the ability of the aircraft ascending,” said the National Transport Safety Council.
September 16, 2011: P-51 Mustang breaks into the Reno Air Races crowd
Eleven people were killed during the 2011 National Championship air competitions in Renault, when they galloped a ghost, a highly modified World War II, P-51 Mustang, piloted by Jimmy Leur, embarked on the ground where viewers were sitting. At least 65 people were seriously injured, according to an investigation by the National Transport Safety Council, although other accounts report more.
“It was a war zone,” said Linda Elvin, surviving, who lost her leg in the accident, before RGJ in 2016.
The Air Races Reno crash in 2011 is the most deadly crash in air competitions. In addition to the leeks and viewers, 22 pilots and wing-lords die in air competitions from the 70’s.
July 17, 2022: Two aircraft collide at North Las Vegas Airport
Donald Goldberg and Carol Ann Scandon, who flew on Piper PA-46, ended the flight when they were confronted with flight instructor Anthony Chiamonts and Flight Student Zahari Rainy over the North Las Vegas Airport in 2022 Chiaramonti and Raine In 2022, Chiaramonts and Rainy carried out take -off and landing in 2022. Chiaramonts and Rainy carried out withdrawal and landing. in a single -motor beef at that time.
An investigation by the National Transport Safety Council has found that the crash was probably caused by “the pilot’s failure to ensure that the aircraft was brought into line with the correct track,” KTNV reports. Air traffic control also probably failed to provide timely traffic information or airplane or recognize the developing conflict that led to the tragedy.
February 24, 2023: Flight Care Crash
Pilatus PC-12, managed by the Washoe Regional Emergency Medical Services Authority, fell apart in the middle of the flight out of Renault during a snowstorm on February 24, before collapsing near Stagecoach. Five people were killed in the care flight, which was about to transport a patient to Salt Lake City.
The crash was the fourth national investigation on the Transport Safety Board, including a Guardian Flight aircraft from 2018 to 2023, three of which were fatal and led to 11 deaths.
