Aircraft Investigation and Safety Analysis

The video tutorial covers an investigation into an aircraft crash involving the US National Transportation Safety Board. It examines the mechanical aspects of the flight, including thrust, pitch, and roll, and finds no mechanical issues. The focus then shifts to radio navigation and glide slope problems, revealing cockpit confusion and miscommunication. Despite the lack of a ground proximity warning, the captain called off a go-around, leaving investigators with unresolved questions.
