Voo BA 009 - falha nos 4 motores do 747 em Junho/1982

Olá amigos,

segue entrevista com o comandante Eric Moody que ao atravessar uma nuvem de poeira vulcânica teve falha nos 4 motores do 747 da British Airways que pilotava com 248 passageiros a bordo.

Achei muito interessante, entrevista feita pelo site FlightSim.com:


Interviewer: Almost 32 years ago, British Airways flight 9 was on a routine flight from London, Heathrow to Auckland, New Zealand with stops in Bombay, Madras, Kuala Lumpur, Perth and finally Melbourne. On the night of the 24th of June, 1982, 'City of Edinburgh' - a Boeing 747-200 with 248 passengers on board - was en route to Perth after stopping off at Kuala Lumpur. Less than an hour into the flight, the aircraft flew into a cloud of volcanic ash thrown up by the Indonesian volcano, Mount Galunggung, which resulted in the failure of all four of the Boeing's engines. The captain of that flight was Eric Moody.
