Description
Engineering News – Surfside Condominium Building Collapse in Miami Florida on June 24, 2021. (1:35)
In this week's episode, I am joined by Brian, a former pilot, to talk about the de Havilland Comet (6:30). While the Comet had some wins (14:45), it also suffered significant losses. The first fatal crash occurred after take-off from Karachi, Pakistan on March 3, 1953 (19:45), followed by another crash on May 2, 1953, 6 minutes after take-off from Calcutta, India (20:35). Then in 1954, Yoke Peter crashed on Jan 10th (25:55) and Yoke Yoke crashed on April 8th (29:30), both about 20 minutes after takeoff from Rome.
