A popular television show called Air Crash Investigations recounts the causes of aircraft crashes and related incidents. Lately, I have been binge-watching Mini Air Crash Investigation, which gives short 10-20 minute accounts of air crashes and close calls.
What makes the Mini Air Crash Investigation videos worth watching is that they don’t include all of the dramatizations that something like Air Crash Investigations spends so much time on. The videos often get into a bit more technical detail about specific faults than similar programs (though it is still aimed at a lay audience, so the narrator mentions where he is simplifying issues in the interest of not simply reading from the crash investigation report).
A good example of this is the channel’s video on the Dutch response to the main report on the Tenerife disaster, which is the deadliest civilian aviation disaster. Most documentaries about Tenerife describe the accident based on the Spanish air crash investigation report. In that report, the main cause of the accident is laid on the captain of KLM Flight 4805, who was in a rush to get his plane in the air, and as a result, began takeoff without getting clearance to do so from air traffic controllers.
The Dutch report pushes back on several claims in the Spanish report. The Dutch response has always seemed like more of a cover-your-ass maneuver, but the narrator of the YouTube video does an excellent job presenting the best case that the Dutch response makes.
