This is a real incident-an air crash in the eyes of an aircraft operator

People who are not in the civil aviation industry probably don't know the epitome of this story. This air crash is an adaptation of a real event, "Apollo Flight 522". If you are interested, you can check it out. There is a documentary called "Aeronautical Catastrophe."
The cause of the incident was that the maintenance crew put the pressure switch of the cabin in the manual position during maintenance work, and the crew failed to check the position during operation, which caused the aircraft to go into the sky without the automatic position. In the end, due to high altitude lack of oxygen, all personnel were in a coma. Indeed, F-16 fighter jets have seen it in the past, and what they have seen is that they are all in a coma. The hand is too tiring. Baidu copied a paragraph:


According to the investigation report, the maintenance crew forgot to change the pressurization switch from "manual mode" back to "automatic mode" after completing the cabin pressurization test, and the pilot did not notice it. When the aircraft climbed more than 15,000 feet in "autopilot mode", the aircraft's pressurization system was in manual mode and failed to automatically pressurize the cabin. The air was thin and the oxygen was insufficient. Under normal circumstances, if the aircraft loses pressure at high altitude, it should be lowered to the airspace with high oxygen content. However, because the captain and co-pilot did not know that the cabin was losing pressure, they always thought that the air conditioner on board was malfunctioning and did not wear a mask. He lost consciousness and was in a coma, resulting in unmanned piloting of the aircraft, and the aircraft continued to climb in autopilot mode. The captain may have left the seat to check whether the air-conditioning device located at the rear of the cockpit had a problem, and fainted due to lack of oxygen.
As for the cabin, the oxygen mask on the top of the cabin will be automatically lowered in the absence of oxygen in the cabin, so the cabin passengers will automatically put on the oxygen mask. However, the oxygen in the oxygen hood can only support about 12 minutes, because this design is only used to support short-term use in situations like high altitude loss of pressure, until the aircraft descends into a high oxygen content airspace. However, because the pilot and co-pilot was in a coma at the time, the plane continued to climb instead of descending. When the oxygen in the oxygen mask is used up, most people lose consciousness due to lack of oxygen and fall into a state of lethargy. Therefore, the F-16 fighter pilot saw all the passengers in the cabin and did not respond. In the cockpit, only the co-pilot could be seen, and the captain was missing. The aircraft did not have a pilot to control the approach in Greece, and had to rely on the autopilot mode to stay in the air and hover on standby.
Andreas, a flight attendant who had worked as a diver and served in special forces (this male attendant seems to have a love relationship with another female attendant on board), relying on emergency spare oxygen bottles (the amount can support 1 hour) ) Go to the cockpit to put on a mask for the co-pilot, and then sit in the captain's seat to try to save the plane, and once called for help with a very weak voice, but in the end the plane crashed due to insufficient fuel.
In addition, the captain of the crashed airliner was a German pilot, a special captain hired by Helios Airlines in response to the demand for increased passenger traffic during the holiday season. However, the captain may not be able to understand the instructions of the ground controller due to communication problems, or because the aircraft lacked oxygen at the time, which affected the captain's judgment and concentration. In any case, the captain always thought it was a failure of the on-board air-conditioning system, and did not know that the pressurizing device was not adjusted to the correct position. In the end, the crew were unable to prevent the accident in time and caused the worst air disaster in Greek history.

Okay, let’s start to talk about some business
matters : 1. The plane will automatically put down the oxygen mask at the cabin altitude of 14000FT, while the general oxygen mask can only provide more than ten minutes. Be wary, you may be the protagonist of this movie~
2. The oxygen mask unit can also be operated manually, and there may be misoperation, so don’t worry too much about
the first situation . 3. It was caused by human operation. It’s difficult for the same air crash to reappear, and the related procedures and equipment will be more complete. Therefore, when you encounter one or two situations, you can still sit at ease and wait for the flight attendants.
4. In addition to the plane and the real incident, this film I just watched the other things that are really bad. . . . . . (Well, I saw the free version online)
