United Airlines Flight 328 N772UA, the aircraft involved in 2012 Incident Date February 20, 2021 13:08 MST (2021-02-20UTC20:08Z) Summary Engine failure caused by metal fatigue Site Over Broomfield, Colorado, U.S. 39°55′44″N 105°03′18″W / 39.929°N 105.055°W / 39.929; -105.055 Aircraft Aircraft type Boeing 777-222 [a] Operator United Airlines IATA flight No. UA328 ICAO ...
Implementation of fatigue prediction models, such as the Sleep, Activity, Fatigue, and Task Effectiveness model, optimize scheduling by being able to predict pilot fatigue at any point in time. Although the mathematical model is limited by individual pilot differences it is the most accurate existing prediction because it takes into account ...
This is the first crash in which a flight recorder was used to provide details in a crash investigation. The accident was the deadliest aviation disaster in history at the time. December 22 – Philippine Airlines Flight S85, a Douglas DC-3C, crashed shortly after takeoff due to loss of control following engine failure, killing 28 of 37 on board.
AIA Flight 808 was the first aviation accident where pilot fatigue was cited as a probable cause. [4] The NTSB issued a recommendation to the Federal Aviation Administration to review and update regulations on crew scheduling and duty time limits to incorporate the latest research into the effects of fatigue. [1]
The aircraft experienced a loss of control due to a malfunction of the left engine propeller control unit, which was attributed to a design flaw. March 3, 1991 25 1 0 United Airlines Flight 585: Colorado Springs: Colorado: Boeing 737-200: The aircraft experienced a loss of control during approach due to a rudder hardover caused by a design flaw.
The cause of the crash was determined to be loss of control during go around due to lack of coordination between the pilots in a case of engine torque asymmetry, pilot fatigue and poor overisght by the operator. 6 fatalities.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) determines that the probable cause of this accident was a low-cycle fatigue crack in the dovetail of fan blade No. 13, which resulted in the fan blade separating in flight and impacting the engine fan case at a location that was critical to the structural integrity and performance of the fan cowl ...
The Federal Aviation Administration sent an inspector to Yuma. The National Transportation Safety Board opened an investigation into the incident. [24] [12] Inspection of the 5 feet (1.5 m) long tear revealed evidence of pre-existing fatigue. The tear was along a lap joint.
