Came across some unusual and "strange" aviation accidents ....

In 1985 an American Airlines B-727 made an emergency landing because the number 3 engine separated from the aircraft

A damaged 0-ring in the forward lavatory had allowed sewage to leak , which froze on the exterior of the fuselage ,

When the ice broke off , it hit the turbine blades causing the engine to disintegrate and fall off.

In other words .... the Shit hit the fan !!!

2010 .... Bandundu, Congo

A passenger brought aboard a crocodile hidden in a sports bag. The crocodile escaped, causing a panic among passengers who all rushed to one end of the plane. This caused an imbalance in the aircraft which led to loss of control and a crash.

1963 Swissair

Patches of fog on the runway so the pilot applied power while riding the brakes and slowly taxied down the runway

This cleared the fog and the plane was able to take off

The brakes were overheated and when the landing gear was raised it started a fire which caused the crash

Nice !


WOLVERINES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On May 20, 1991 near Rock Hill, South Carolina, a pilot in a Hughes HU-269 helicopter was flying an aerial observation flight. He turned on the cockpit heat. A copperhead snake emerged from the vent near his feet. As the pilot maneuvered towards a landing area, the snake appeared poised to strike.

The pilot tried to step on the snake with his foot and subsequently lost control of the helicopter. The helicopter hit some trees and was destroyed, and the pilot was seriously injured. The snake was not found after the accident.
