That Taiwan Air Crash

Posted by Maya @ 21:14 on February 9, 2015  

Pilot Error.  He had one engine fail on takeoff.  In going thru emergency procedures for that engine, they performed a shutdown on the WRONG (still operating) Engine!   That left them with no power.  They were attempting a restart as they crashed.    It’s a not-uncommon error on a twin-engine plane having an emergency that a flustered pilot shuts down the wrong engine.
