Commercial Airlines, though a big source of transport, but at the same time it’s quite risky to travel in it. Because God forbid if someone encounters an accident, the chances of survival are quite less. There have been many accidents in the history of airline. And tens of thousands of people either have lost their lives or have been badly injured. It mostly depends upon how the pilot faces all this and how does he reacts in any troubled situation. Here we are presenting the story of some airline crashes where the pilots put all their efforts to avoid the crashes and how much success they got? Lets see.Plane Crashes

China Airlines Flight 006 faced a highly undesirable situation. There was some technical fault in one of the engines. The reason of the fault was the mistakes committed by the crew members. The whole air crew was flying the plane round the clock without any rest or break and it really disturbed their energy level. The plane took a deep plunge but with the efforts and determination of the air crew,the engine was repaired and the plane was controlled. They landed it safely to San Francisco.  There were some minor injuries but no causalities. And after this incident the government of China brought some positive changes in the flying rules and now gives proper time to the air crew to rest and chill before any flight.

Air Canada Flight 143 was flying under the supervision of Captain Robert Pearson and his first officer Maurice Quintal. The flight ran out of fuel because of the failure to convert fuel equations with the metric system. In this life threatening situation the captain who was an experienced pilot put all his efforts to save the plane and the innocent lives in it. He decided to do an emergency landing at an industrial air port in Gimli, Manitoba. While landing the nose gear of the plane collapsed. But over all it was a success and none was badly injured.

Difficult Landings: Toncontin International Airport, Honduras

by R MAKNovember 17, 2008 Holiday Destinations

Just before landing, the plane drops several hundred feet, Then it takes a sharp U turn and then suddenly touches down at strange angle. Cabin is full of the sound of air and ground brakes as the plane stops. I thank the God and the seat belts, that kept me from smashing into the seats in front. Plane has finally come to a halt and It is all over.

This was not a crash landing. It was just another ordinary Boeing 757 landing at Toncontín International Airport in Honduras.

I have flown well over the country and beyond. I don’t know about any other airport that can compare to Runway 02 at Toncontín International. Its not an airport, It is like a hurdle race. Every possible danger that you can associated with a landing strip is available. Take a good look at following pictures of Runway 02 of TIA, Honduras.
