Anatomy of a very bad 737-8 approach in Turkey
This is a terrific re-enactment of a 1/2009 crash while on an ILS. Controllers vectored it for a "slam dunk" approach - which would have been fine had the pilots been ready for it. They were not. There is much to be learned from this in terms of how to fly approaches from different intercept points on the localizer. I found it highly valuable. (link.brightcove.com) Altro...

While the actual real life crash is sad in itself. this is a fantastic video reenactment.
I agree. Nobody finds anything good in the tragedy of a crash. We do normally learn some lessons from these incidents that can help prevent others. While watching this video you can almost feel the separation begin. This really is an excellent video to pass on to others if for nothing more than to remind them that little things mean a lot.
Nit-picking hat on here, the flight accident was in The Netherlands (Holland), coming from Turkey.
However, this accident, along with the recent two in India and Lybia demonstrate that flight training quality needs to be more stringent.

Six eyes in the cockpit. Nobody flying. This can happen when we become complacent with our automation. So sad.
Never been able to fly fully auto however I can see how this could happen. To much complacy
