In poor weather, and running low on fuel, the four pilots of the flight originating in New Delhi in India, had to make some crucial decisions. Should they attempt an unfamiliar type of approach into New York, or should they risk taking their electronically crippled aircraft to an airport further afield, where there was better weather, but where they might run critically low on fuel. The fate of all 357 people on board depended on weather the flight crew could successfully manage this complex set of failures for which they had never been trained. ----- This video was created with reference to publicly available sources, and with the help of qualified experts.
