Vertigo Causes Flight 604 To Crash Into The Sea | Flash Airlines Flight 604 | Mayday: Air Disaster
Flash Airlines Flight 604 takes off from Sharm el-Sheik, Egypt, but crashes into the Red Sea shortly thereafter. The experienced pilot may have been disoriented, or perhaps it happened due to faulty equipment. Investigators have the difficult task of finding the black box and solving the mystery.
What do you think was the cause of the crash?
From Season 4 Episode 9 "Vertigo": January 3, 2004. In the darkness before dawn, Flash Airlines flight 604 takes off from Sharm el-Sheik Egypt, heading back to Paris.
But just minutes after taking off, something goes tragically wrong. The plane crashes into the Red Sea, shatters on impact and sinks. All 148 on board are killed.
A crash in deep water presents tremendous obstacles to any accident investigator. In this case, after weeks of work, the plane’s two black boxes are recovered. But more than 85 per cent of the plane is left at the bottom of the Red Sea.
After two years of investigation, four mechanical theories are put forward that might explain the crash.
In the end, the answer to this crash will always remain at the bottom of the Red Sea. One of the strangest crashes in recent history will likely remain a mystery forever.
