First Fatal Airplane Crash

:salam2:

**Do you remember any plane Crash in History? If yes than you are in right thread on right time :smiley: lets share which airplance crashed in past under what circumstances. Let me istart first.
**
Orville and Wilbur Wright made their famous flight at Kitty Hawk. By 1908, the Wright brothers were traveling across the United States and Europe in order to demonstrate their flying machine. Everything went well until that fateful day just after 5 p.m. on September 17, 1908, when Orville and Lt. Selfridge got into the airplane. Lt. Selfridge was the Wrights’ heaviest passenger thus far, weighing 175 pounds. The September began with a cheering crowd of 2,000 and ended with pilot Orville Wright severely injured and passenger Lieutenant Thomas Selfridge dead.

The two men were taken by stretcher to the nearby post hospital. Doctors operated on Lt. Selfridge, but at 8:10 p.m., Lt. Selfridge died from a fractured skull, without ever regaining consciousness. Orville suffered a broken left leg, several broken ribs, cuts on his head, and many bruises.

Lt. Thomas Selfridge was buried with military honors at Arlington National Cemetery. He was the first man to die in an airplane.

Orville Wright was released from the Army hospital on October 31. Though he would walk and fly again, Orville continued to suffer from fractures in his hip that had gone unnoticed at the time. Orville later determined that the crash was caused by a stress crack in the propeller.

The Wrights soon redesigned the Flyer to eliminate the flaws that led to this accident.

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

Now that is sad:), my grandfather crashed once but ejected safely, it was Gnat:)

It used to fly on verbal instruction and used to synthesize energy from sun to fly:)

He is nowhere match to Narendra Modi even then:D

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

With the development technology, chances of casualties seems to increase :frowning:

:hmmm: Solar Jet. I think Ravan was in good terms with the god of sun that provided him uninterrupted energy source :smiley:

Must be Akhand Bharata supporter :slight_smile:

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

May ninja hattori visit this thread to solve your problem :slight_smile:

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

Possibility of human error is still constant, machines are less likely to make mistakes as they don’t have brain of their own:)

it was his step brother’s aircraft, Kuber, the one who is responsible for distribution of wealth:), It used to fly only during day time. Rawan even tied all Grihas,planet gods in his palace:)

may be, but his rise poses challenge, Under him, his state is fastest growing, and soon Gujjus are going to dislodge punjabis from number one position from every development indices:(

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

No Ninja likes ZH because of his theories matching with Ninja’s ideology :smiley:

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

Yes machines are less likely to error, but they are still operated by humans without brains, who fail to assess that machines are also subject to wear and tear :frowning:

Now I remember watching a video of a place in Sri Lanka about Ravan’s palace. It seemed quite small to have all plantes in it :hehe:

Even that tilak wali aunty is gujju :bummer:

Re: First Fatal Airplane Crash

Back to the topic :)

On March 3, 1974, Turkish Airlines Flight 981, a McDonnell Douglas DC-10, crashed in a forest northeast of Paris, France. The London-bound plane crashed shortly after taking off from Orly airport. All 346 people on board died. It was later determined that the cargo door had detached which caused an explosive decompression which in turn caused the floor just above to collapse. When the floor collapsed it severed the control cables, which left the pilots without control of the elevators, the rudder and the No. 2 engine. The plane entered a steep dive and crashed. It was the deadliest plane crash of all time until the Tenerife disaster in 1977.
