À propos de cet audio

Two significant aviation tragedies highlight how human error, mechanical failure, and design flaws can combine with fatal results.In the first, a British Air Tours Boeing 737 suffers an engine fire on the ground. A narrow cabin, a jammed door, and toxic smoke trap passengers, resulting in 55 deaths during evacuation. In the second, a Korean Air Lines passenger jet drifts into Soviet airspace during the Cold War, where a navigation error leads to its shootdown. Investigation of black box data shows the crew mistakenly flew on a magnetic heading instead of following the waypoint system.Both cases demonstrate how seemingly minor errors and design oversights can escalate into catastrophe. They also drive critical safety reforms in aircraft design, emergency procedures, and cockpit navigation protocols.
