A300
Unfortunate happening! A LOT of souls were lost on this brief flight.
.... The plane was an Ait-Bus(t?) with perhaps mechanical failure with a GE(e?) engine.
In the early to mid 80s, AB were known for trying to fly themselves into the ground when the plane got in a tight spot. It seems that their control systems would tell the pilot FU! and crash the plane. These lmitations were worked out of the system eventually. I believe there was the combination of a GE Engine failing and the plane's CS freaking out.
Well..Maybe not...
Ya think the Airline's execs's ulcers started bleeeding again?
