Munich’s Slush and a Rogue 747 Rudder
The 1958 Munich air disaster destroyed much of the Manchester United football team when the plane failed to take off. While early reports blamed wing icing, later investigations revealed runway slush as the true cause, and the pilot spent years clearing his name.
Northwest Airlines Flight 85 faced a critical rudder hardover above the Bering Sea. The crew’s expert cockpit management and manual flying skills allowed them to safely land the aircraft despite the severe mechanical failure.
Both cases highlight the importance of pilot skill, integrity, and persistence in ensuring safety and advancing air accident investigations.
