A Boeing 747 crashed on final approach in Madrid Spain. The 1983 disaster of Avianca Flight 11 is one of the deadliest to involve a Boeing 747. The photographed wreckage of the plane showed a devastating scene with barely anything resembling an airplane. The accident raised a lot of questions as the 747 was the most iconic plane in the skies and this particular plane was being flown by some of the Airline’s best pilots. Unfortunately the subsequent investigation would later find a causal factor for the disaster to be in the actions of the flight crew in the flight’s final moments. So what happened here that lead to such devastation?
