Sixty dead after plane crashes in Idlewood

By: Spex Kelly | 26th October, 2020.

 

On the 19th of October, 2020, at about 19:00hours, Air San Andreas Flight 420, Boeing 737-400, crashed in the middle of Idlewood, Los Santos, while attempting to turn about back to the airport for an emergency landing.

 

The aircraft was on a scheduled flight from Los Santos Airport to Las Venturas Airport when a fan-blade broke in the left engine, disrupting the air condition and filling the cabin with smoke. The pilots believed this indicated a fault in the right engine, since earlier models of the 737 ventilated the cabin from the right, and they were unaware that the -400 used a different system. The pilots mistakenly shut down the functioning engine. They selected full thrust from the malfunctioning one and this increased its fuel supply, causing it to catch fire.

 

Out of the 147 people on board, 60 died and 82 sustained serious injuries.
