Plane Crash Recreated
TK1951 / Schiphol (1x8)
: 26, 2021
Turkish Airlines Flight 1951 was less than a mile from the runway at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport
when it catastrophically crashed on 25th February 2009. The aircraft broke into 3 pieces on impact,
killing 9 passengers and crew and all three pilots.
A faulty radio altimeter was the initial catalyst in a chain of errors that led to the horrific crash. In
this episode, survivors tell their story of escaping from the wreckage of what should have been a
normal commute home to Amsterdam.
