The pilots of a Douglas DC8 lost control of their plane immediately after takeoff from New York. The resulting devastation on that September day in 1970 killed all on board the plane. The answers to questions surrounding what happened can be found leading up to and during the takeoff phase. Up till that point the pilots had taxied out to the runway without suspecting anything was wrong with their plane. Little did they know that danger lurked where they couldn’t see it. It was only when the plane was accelerating down the runway that things started to go wrong very quickly. So lets explore the background of this flight and examine the details of this takeoff process. Lets dive deeper into Trans International Airlines Flight 863.
