The Crash of Manchester United in 1958 - British European Airways Flight 609 

Great Work and video MPC and Rest In Peace team Machester United 1958 🙏🏻🌹🕊 from Colombia 🇨🇴

I put this down to pilot error. Slush congealed on the undercarriage at takeoff making the plane much heavier and dragging on it. There is a rule in aviation if you try something twice and it doesn't work you do not try a third time. In this case the obvious cause of slush on the runway was not rectified.

How many times does the plane need to say "not today".

What a tragedy...that was one very good looking aircraft! Too bad about the "icing" condition that the pilot thought was not a problem!! Thank you for the great video!!

Its mid night 12.34 am in india by bell icon turned on I’m watching this❤❤

If there were issues on take off why did they try again thrn sevond tske off yoo fast id be sorry out it was madness then weather was bad how many things does it take before you call it a day

Too busy trying to blame each other to even bother to realize that the idiot captain was the problem the whole time. Just like a lot of crashes stupid people making stupid decisions. You would think they would actually make it harder for you to be able to get a commercial pilots license especially back in 1958 let alone current times. I don't care if you flew in the Air Force especially the British Air force that doesn't Qualify you to fly other humans around.

The germans blamed the British captain...of course they would.

If I'm on an airplane and they abort the takeoff, I'm off the airplane immediately, I don't care what the circumstances are.

so very sad 😢

Sad - after the second failed attempt- I would’ve stayed in the terminal- and worried about ice. My condolences

What idiots. How many red flags do you need to cancel a flight.

No mention of the 2 aborted attempts, with engine problems, c'mon, that's bullshit.

@ 4:47 Allianz arena was already built in 1958!😅

Hello Air Florida. Sound familiar?

What is that black wire over the top of the plane that goes from the front to the back?
