The case of Air India Flight 855 is one of the Worst Air Disasters ever recorded. On the first night 1978, in the dark night sky, this massive plane photographed plunged into the Arabian sea less than two minutes after takeoff. This was a devastating case that really was a simple accident, yet it claimed so many lives. The accident involved the largest plane of the day, the Boeing 747.
The Boeing 747 today is in its Twilight years, yet it is still one of if not the most iconic plane to ever fly. For the longest time there was no plane as big as it, no plane commanded such awe as the four engine Queen of the Sky. We’re going to unpack how this very short flight unfolded. Lets travel to India and see if we can gain an understanding as to how these lives were lost.
