Falling Fast (Ditch the Plane, Tuninter Flight 1153) (7x7)

Air date: Dec 16, 2009

On August 6, 2005, a Tuninter ATR-72 ran out of fuel and was forced to ditch in the sea near Palermo, Italy. Of the 39 people on board, 16 lost their lives. The mistake was simply a wrong fuel gauge that sent higher fuel readings than the actual ones.
