The pilots put the aircraft into a terrifying dive, desperately fighting to get their aircraft on the ground. Will they be able to make it to a small island in the middle of the ocean, or will the flames consume their chances? This is the horrifying story of South African Airways flight 295. And it’s a story with a puzzling twist. ----- Final report: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Report_of_the_Board_of_Inquiry_into_the_Helderberg_air_disaster/Part_1#p1_1 TRC Hearing: https://www.gov.za/sites/default/files/gcis_document/201409/helderberg0.pdf Stock footage and effects by Storyblocks Map tiles by Stamen Design, under CC BY 3.0.
