Pan Am and KLM Plane crash
Summary
It was on 27th of March, when Pan Am and KLM planes were diverted to Tenerife Airport due to the reported bomb explosions at their expected destination. Pan Am plane was from New York and it was carrying 380 passengers with 11 flight attendants. The KLM plane was from Netherlands and majority of the passengers were families going for Easter holiday vacation. The Dutch pilots were restricted to fly certain number of hours and they were expected to fly back to Amsterdam. There was traffic in Tenerife Airport and there was no room for Pan Am passengers so they had to stay on board. After about 1 hour of landing, both planes started to takeoff from the same run way, KLM being the first one on the run way. Shortly afterwards Pan Am requested to start and they followed KLM on the same run way. Due to misunderstanding in communication and poor visibility, neither of the pilots could see the runway and also the airport was not well equipped with ground radar thus leading to collision when KLM was back to takeoff. The crash led to loss of 582 lives (YouTube, 2015).
