This week’s Movie Monday comes from the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation), not to be confused with the American Broadcast Company. Four Corners devoted a full episode to examining the A380’s uncontained Trent 900 engine failure that befell Qantas Flight 32 on November 4 of last year. I’ll confess that I have not had a chance to watch the entire program yet, but what I have seen presents it as the most comprehensive look at what happened to QF32, re-created with the full participation of the airline.
The 45 minute look at QF32 also includes an additional 45 minutes of extended interviews with Captain Richard De Crespigny, Qantas CEO Alan Joyce and Alan Milne, head of maintenance operations.
Four Corners does not allow for direct embedding of their video content, so you’ll have to follow through to the ABC website to watch the complete program or just click the screen capture below. Enjoy!
