Brief introduction of Suzhou city air crash

The air crash in Suzhou city occurred in July 1989, 19. The No.2 engine of Douglas DC-10 three-engine passenger plane flying United Airlines Flight 232 (UA/UA 232) was damaged due to the manufacturing defects of fan blades, and all three hydraulic systems on board were damaged when the blades fell off during operation, resulting in the failure of the control functions of each wing surface. The crew worked without a rudder, and with the cooperation of an off-duty pilot sitting in the back cabin, they adjusted the flight direction by controlling the remaining two engines, trying to make the flight in crash landing, Sioux City, Iowa, which was called the Sioux City air crash. Unfortunately, during the forced landing, the fuselage overturned, resulting in the tragic death of 1 1 among the 285 passengers and 11among the crew, but the casualties would have been heavier if the crew had not rescued them properly. Because people on the ground know that the plane may crash during the forced landing, TV photographers have been waiting at the airport to record the forced landing of the plane, which is one of the most complete air crashes in aviation history.
