Heavy Lift/Pelita Air at Kai Tak
If there is ever a phase of a flight where pilots are amongst the most attentive, it would be during the takeoff. A flight crew not only needs to get the aircraft off the ground but also needs to monitor the plane’s performance. A lot goes on during this delicate time, especially within the plane’s engines. It’s rare for things to go wrong but every pilot is trained for that moment when problems arise. Pilots are extremely talented people; they know what they’re doing. So when the flight crew of one plane in 1994 started rolling down the runway, they never could have imagined that in less than one minute, they’d be staring death in the face.
