March 10th, 1989 - Flight 1363 prepares for take-off. The jet struggles to get airborne, starts shaking violently and less than a minute later, crashes into the woods. Emergency crews rush to the site in an attempt to save passengers from the wreckage. Investigators must now uncover what led the plane to crash, but will they determine who was to blame?

A continental flight is approaching airport, but as the pilots lower their landing gear and extend the flaps to slow the plane, the control column suddenly starts to shake. The captain struggles to keep the plane flying but the out-of-control aircraft suddenly plummets towards the ground and crashes into a suburban home. Investigators work to try and determine what caused this aviation disaster.

Just minutes after taking off an Airbus collides with a flock of birds causing both engines to lose all thrust. The crew desperately tries to restart their engines, but can't. Searching desperately for a place to land, the captain warns passengers and crew to brace for impact and lands the plane in the icy waters of the Hudson River.
