0:00 From Season 9 Episode 6 "Cold Case": March 10th, 1989 — Bound for Winnipeg, Air Ontario Flight #1363 prepares for takeoff after a brief layover in Dryden, a remote Northern airport. Already an hour behind schedule, the pilots fear the heavy snowfall will further delay their departure, and after refueling, they taxi into position and accelerate. The jet reaches takeoff speed but struggles to get airborne, and although it clears the trees at the end of the runway, starts shaking violently and less than a minute later crashes into the woods.

From Season 7 Episode 5 "Operation Babylift": In the dying days of the Vietnam War, US President Gerald Ford orders an urgent mission of mercy called ‘Operation Babylift’. Its goal: to rescue Vietnamese orphans from the chaos of the war and take them back to the safety of the US.  Along with their adult chaperones, nearly 250 Vietnamese babies and children are loaded onto an Air Force C5A Galaxy, one of the world’s largest planes.  But after a steep and rapid ascent to get out of missile range, the aircraft is suddenly rocked by a violent explosion.

From Season 9 Episode 8 ""Cracks In The System"": December 19th, 2005 — Destined for the Bahamas, Chalk’s Ocean Airways Flight #101 is preparing for takeoff in the waters off Miami Beach, Florida. Part plane, part speedboat, the twin turbo-prop taxis through one of the world’s busiest ports, and after a smooth takeoff, climbs towards the clouds. A minute later, however, it’s suddenly rocked by an explosion. From the beach, a tourist films its catastrophic plunge into the ocean.
