Here is the investigation report on the crash
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_Fai…

On Friday, 24 June 1994, a United States Air Force (USAF) Boeing B-52 Stratofortress crashed at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, United States, after the pilot, Lt Col Arthur “Bud” Holland, maneuvered the bomber beyond its operational limits and lost control. The aircraft stalled, fell to the ground, and exploded, killing Holland and the other three USAF officers aboard. The crash was captured on video and was shown repeatedly on news broadcasts throughout the world.[1]

The subsequent investigation concluded that the crash was attributable primarily to three factors: Holland’s personality and behavior, USAF leaders’ delayed or inadequate reactions to earlier incidents involving Holland, and the sequence of events during the aircraft’s final flight. The crash is now used in military and civilian aviation environments as a case study in teaching crew resource management. It is also often used by the U.S. Armed Forces during aviation safety training as an example of the importance of compliance with safety regulations and correcting the behavior of anyone who violates safety procedures.

NO CHANCE TO RECOVER. At Fairchild airforce base. The B-52 Stratofortress has no ailerons as they would cause excessive twisting of the highly flexible wing. It achieves roll control entirely through spoilerons mounted near the center of the wing in about the same place as most gliders. Therefore in this situation when the plane banks to the left the pilot uses full right spoilerons therefore increasing and losing more lift in this critical situation

  1. I'm not a pilot, I've only ever known one person who was a pilot. At age 65 I'd say I am unlikely to become a pilot any day soon… but that plane just LOOKS way too far over on its side to stay in the sky. Where's its lift supposed to come from? Too much of a tilt and too close to the floor. Awful.

  2. This plane just crumbles….very different from the wtc/911 planes whose wings sheared load bearing steel beams, even the tail sheared and went into the wtc. You can watch it and wonder but there it is, a plane tail shearing a lead bearing beam. the full width of the wings all sheared the building and left a cut out image if the plane

  3. Colonel Holland should have been grounded and court martialed long before this crash happened. He was unprofessional towards his flight crew, disregarded their safety and had absolutely zero business being a commissioned officer in the U.S. Air Force. As far as I am concerned, he was a disgrace to the uniform!!!

  4. Я не понял ,он на такой маленькой высоте хотел повернуть настолько огромный самолет как будто это какой нибудь F 16?

  5. I know a guy who's sister's uncle's cousin's mother's niece's grandmother's son's friend's brother's boss knew a woman whose neighbor knew a guy who had a brother who had a friend who knew a girl who's dad knew a guy who knew a guy who was in the Marine's who heard about this but never saw it.

  6. My grandfather was a senior member of Fairchild maintenance crew and was with 10 others solely for the B-52 seen here, they were not all there that day, but my grandfather was, and saw this, he said "It was a nightmare, seeing a plane dive that hard at that angle, a certain crash, yet, no one noticed…."

  7. Darker Shades of Blue, written by Tony Kern, sheds a lot of light on the failure at group and wing command level, and how the persistent failures at these levels over the course of 3 years led to this crash.

  8. The really amazing thing is that the plane was only 2 knots below the stall speed. The wind was blowing @ +10 Knots so the first turn went fine but the 2nd bank was -10 Knots from the wind. So if the wind was not blowing that day, the crash would not have happened. He needed 169 Knots he stalled @ 167.
