The plane took off from bagram airfroce base at 11:05 am and the crew then preceded to climb to their cruising altitude. The plane then entered an orbit just west of kabul at 42,000 feet, this should be an easy mission just stay there relay data and then come home, but the mission would be anything but that. At 12:50 pm the pilots asked for clearance from the controller to climb from 42000 feet to 43000 feet. The engines spun up and the plane started to slowly climb from 42,000 feet, then an explosion rocked the plane, one of the engines had just exploded and the crew of two were down to one of their engines. On the cockpit voice recorder a loud bang could be heard and the then the voice data recorder cut out. The plane was shaking violently, to the point that the crew probably thought that they had collided with another plane or something. The plane yawed to the left and the pilots fought to correct the yaw to the left. Within a few minutes the E11A had lost more than a thousand feet in altitude at 12:51 pm the plane was at 41,000 feet down from its peak of 42,300. In the cockpit the pilots were figuring out how to get the plane under control, they pulled back the right hand engine to idle to make sure that the engine damage it self even more than it already was. Seconds after that they had turned off the right hand engine. To help slow their fall the left hand engine was then increased in power. But to the confusion of the crew the plane did not stabilize the vibrations eased up for a bit but then it was right back where they started and much to the concern of the crew they watched as the left hand engine now gave up on them, the needle on the console rolled back the left hand engine was rolling back as well. This crew was now left without power. Both their engines had failed. Now they needed to get this plane on the ground as soon as possible before the altitude that they had given out. On the display, a large warning appeared, dual engine out. The pilots immediately got on the radio with kabul ATC and then let them know that they had lost both engines. The crew then started on the dual engine out checklist to prep their plane for a potential restart of the engines. The pilots were going for something known as a windmill restart. Right now the plane was flying fast enough that the air flow would keep the core of the engines spinning getting the engines started right now would be a lot simpler when you compare it to something like starting it when the plane was much much slower. The pilots were aiming for kandahar airport which was well outside the glide capabilities of the E11A and the pilots knew that but they were sure that they could get atleast one of their engines back online. But time was not on their side that day from 30,000 feet they could stay in the air for a grand total of 12 minutes, if they couldnt get the engines going in that time then they were looking at landing somewhere in the harsh afghani desert. But unluckily for the pilots of the E11A the engines would not light, they now had to put this plane on the ground somewhere, the thing is when the emergency started they could have easily made it to either kabul or the forward operating base shank. Then at 13:09 pm the plane impacted killing both pilots. As soon as the plane crashed the emergency locator on the plane went off and A10s in the area were rerouted to find the wreck of the plane. Unfortunateluy due to the weather in the area recovery efforts could not be started immediately. With the investigators would have to wait for a bit before they got their hands on the wreck of the plane but in the mean time they could study what the pilots did. For some reason air crews in the r
