December 22nd, 1999
Flying an airliner is a complex task. It requires highly trained pilots working together to get hundreds of tonnes of metal and people safely into the air. The margin for error is small, and when mistakes do happen, they can be catastrophic.
When things go well, this complexity looks like clockwork ā each of the components interlinking seamlessly, and ticking away the flight.
The story of Korean Air flight 8509 is a dark and complex one. Its cogs and wheels are psychological, technological, and even cultural. When the clockwork of this flight burst open just seconds after takeoff on December 22nd 1999, it revealed deep rooted problems in the aviation industry - problems which would need to be reckoned with, fast.
This is the story of Korean air flight 8509

The fact that the first officer never spoke up during the entire emergency is truly sad

Just wanted to thank you for all you do. My grandfather passed a few weeks ago, and the last couple of times I went to visit, we would watch your videos together. Heās always had an interest in engineering, whether it be cars, ships, or planes, but neither of us realized the other was interested in accident investigations. Your work will always be dear to my heart and remind me of the time I got to spend with him.

As someone who only knows what happens in the cockpit from YouTube, i cannot comprehend this story. Captain had thousands of hours of flight, aware of the instrument failure from the previous flight, warnings both audible and visual, his inputs didnt match the instruments and FE mentioned bank, yet he didn't react in any way?! This is crazy

so sad how arrogance, pride, and selfishness was the reason that lives were lost... this is so prevalent in korean culture specifically in the older generations and this reminds me of the sewol ferry tragedy which took more than 300 lives with a majority of them being children.
great video as always, mr. green dot!! :)

It still kind of amazes me that machines as huge and heavy as modern commercial aircraft ever managed to get off the ground at all!

No crashes in 25 years since this crash is one really impressive record.

Hold up. The first crew had written in the tech log that if the captains ADI was switched to ATT, everything would be alright. He essentially told the maintenance crew exactly what to do in the tech log!

It's crazy to think that the captain believed that the plane wasn't turning as he was requesting it to, yet he didn't initiate any sort of non-normal checklist to diagnose the problem.

I work for an aircraft maintenance company, and they used part of your videos in a saftey presentation I had to attend. I recognized the tone and everything as a regular watcher. Cheers

A sad story. But BIG kudos to the Koreans for owning up to their mistake and changing the culture within their airline. We should not take that for granted. Once they knew what was broke they fixed it. If only BOEING would think the same way :(

It seems to me, the mechanic should have been able to properly diagnose what was defective from what the flight engineer told him. He said the ADI worked fine once he switched the source. That would tell any reasonable person that the source is the problem.

I was at home 3 miles away from the impact of this crash and saw and heard the windows rattle from the blast.

That maintenance engineer should not have needed to look up that code, the written note explained what was happening well enough.

It's a good day when GreenDot uploads š

The incoming captain should have just left the switch in the ALT position for the next captain

As soon as there is a power imbalance in the cockpit, safety dies. Hierarchies are one thing, but a clear perception of tasks and mutual respect are what I understand by professionalism, whether on an airplane or anywhere else.

Love your video's, by far my favorite air disaster channel. No excessive use of stock images, clear explaination, focus on the accident, just perfect.

I worked for a Asiana ground handling company for 9 long months. The culture there was amazing to watch. Aircraft captains were gods and nobody questioned them. Even the American born Koreans working there were scared to death of the Korean born management who ran the terminal. Moreā¦..as a licensed aircraft mechanic, I believe the Korean Air maintenance guy didnāt do his job as the flight engineers write up practically gave him the problem and the fix if he had troubleshot the problem correctly. Even the captain knew what the problem was and what the fix was. To have to go to a code book to figure out the problem was part of the problem!

Between you and Mentour Pilot i can't decide who's my favourite. I LOVE both of your content. Can't wait for the next one!
