1:46 Japan Airlines actually requested their own specific variant of the 747 that could safely accomodate frequent short flights rather than the longer routes the 747 was originally meant for, while still carrying the same number of passengers. The result was the 747SR, which featured a strengthened airframe, beefier landing gear, reduced fuel capacity, and increased cargo payload. The plane involved in JAL 123 was a 747SR. Edit: The 747SR is not to be confused with the 747SP, another special variant that was shortened and had longer range.

Very few people outside of Japan (and probably even in Japan now) are aware of what I’m about to say, but it was rumored amongst Japanese aviation circles that this 747 did not crash from a bulkhead failure as is often described, but was accidentally shot down by the JDF during a missile test that went wrong. I’m only aware of this because a close family friend, who was a captain at JAL at the time, shared this rumor with me, and this was years ago. In the time since, I was able to collaborate that a long-range AA missile test did in fact take place nearby that day. Unfortunately, most of the info I came across in my research was in Japanese but I did find a couple of videos in English, one of which was an interview of the American C-130 pilot.

The deadliest single aircraft accident in aviation history. Also, I know these are short documentaries but this does the crew a disservice by omitting how they experimented with spinning one engine up while throttling back the other in an attempt to level the plane, something they managed to maintain for quite a while before the crash, and which was the method used to control the DC-10 at Sioux City. In 2004, the band Rammstein released their album Reise, Reise, the album art of which depicts a flight data recorder. The fourth song on the album (Dalai Llama) is about an aircraft which gets into trouble. On European releases of Reise, Reise, hidden in "negative time" before the first song, are the last 30 seconds of the CVR of Japan Airlines Flight 123.

About Captain Takahama’s last words - “もうダメ” (mou dame) Interestingly, I’ve seen this misinterpretation of the translation in almost everything I’ve watched about this crash. I also tried looking through the Japanese version of the accident report and I didn’t find it there. (little note here: Japanese is my second language so please correct me if I’m wrong!!) ”This is the end” would be something like ”終わりだ” (owari da) or perhaps ”最後だ” (saigo da), but what he said was ”もうダメ”(mou dame) もう (mou) can be used to say “already,” or that something is to the extent that it cannot be done anymore than it already is, and also often expresses resignation/frustration by the speaker. ダメ (dame) means “no good” or “hopeless” or "useless" So what Takahama is saying when he says もうダメ (mou dame,) it comes off meaning something more like “It’s hopeless” “It’s useless” “That’s it, there’s nothing else we can do.” What these pilots managed to do by keeping the plane in the air for as long as they did was amazingly brave, they didn’t give up until the very last second.

The spotty image of the plane flying above and the other of hanging oxygen masks with a flight attendant grabbing a quick breath are bone chilling. Hoover on Pilot Debrief has done a piece covering the flight as well, and said there wasn't enough oxygen to go around at first and that's why the you see so many hanging and the flight attendant borrowing from a passenger. There was a huge hole in the back of the aircraft from the explosion of the bulkhead, but the cockpit crew was unaware initially and assumed they had lost an engine or two . Therefore, the crew performed emergency procedures for losing an engine, which included cutting power to the remaining engines. The loss of hydraulics systems eventually caused engine shutdowns, but their efforts to stabilize the aircraft did just the opposite. They stayed in the air for an incredible length of time, too, kind of drifting toward the mountain range ahead. How agonizing it must've been. My condolences to the families and friends for their loss.

IIRC, standard passenger O² supply on those craft was / is just 15 minutes, whereas the cockpit's separate gas system has enough to provide all core aviation crew (pilot, co-pilot / first officer, navigator, etc.) with ≥45 minutes (don't quote me; these're figures half-recalled from various Mentour Pilot forensic air disaster essays). For me, one of the factors that imparts this story with that sense of true *vertiginous horror* unique to the handful of my personal "worst of the worst" aviation tragedies, is the fact that _no one in the cockpit ever donned an oxygen mask._ There's a grotesque irony to the crew being so consumed with the abject terror of their crisis that the very survival instinct driving them to single-mindedly focus on saving the plane blinded them to the simple but *absolute* necessity of putting on their O² masks. I feel a hyper-specific kind of dread when thinking about harrowing "final moments" events; this unique species of unease and almost existential nausea -- and when I imagine the pilots' already impossible struggle to save hundreds of lives evilly compounded by the slow, insidious, but inevitable creep-in of hypoxic cognitive haze and disorientation, all suffused with pure animal fear and terminal despair, it's impossible to escape that sense of vicarious, "historical" dread. Aviators, cabin crew, passengers, all in anguished delirium, white-knuckling their arm wrests in a sickeningly protracted death spiral -- and all _wholly certain of their imminent and guaranteed annihilation_ on a lonely mountainside -- is as authentic a "nightmare made reality" scenario as I can imagine, and indeed air disasters are one of my own nightmares' commoner scenarios. What it must have been like to have suffered as they did.

An avarage human has about 30-60 seconds of consciousness in the event of a decompression at normal cruising altitude. The moment that happens the pilots get an alarm to put on their oxygen masks, for the rest of the cabin the masks also come down. The pilots oxygen is seperated from the rest, it also lasts longer (oxygen masks get about 20min i think). If nothing else is damaged that is enough time to bring the plane below 10000 feet where the air is breathable

It is so enraging when the cause of an airline (or any) disaster is inadequate maintenance. Fyi, the one and only time the "Concord" crashed during service was due to improper maintenance on an airplane that took off just before the "Concord's" doomed flight, i.e., the shoddy maintenance resulted in a piece of metal, that was used in the inadequate maintenance of the plane in question, fell off onto the runway which would be struck by a tire on Concord's landing gear causing the tire to explode and debris piercing a fuel tank in the Concord resulting in an explosion of the fuel.

Japan Airlines Flight 123, also known as the JL123 incident, was a tragic aviation accident that occurred on August 12, 1985. The flight was a domestic route from Tokyo to Osaka, operated by a Boeing 747SR aircraft. Approximately 12 minutes into the flight, the aircraft experienced a sudden decompression due to a structural failure caused by an improper repair following a tailstrike incident seven years earlier. Despite the loss of significant portions of the aircraft's control systems, the crew made valiant efforts to keep the plane in the air, but unfortunately, the aircraft eventually crashed into a mountain ridge in Gunma Prefecture, Japan. Tragically, out of the 524 passengers and crew on board, only four passengers survived the crash. The JL123 incident remains one of the deadliest single-aircraft accidents in aviation history. It led to significant changes in aircraft maintenance procedures, emergency response protocols, and reinforced the importance of proper maintenance and regulatory oversight in aviation safety. The victims and their families are remembered, and the lessons learned from this tragedy continue to shape safety standards in the aviation industry.
