Title: "Exclusive Revelation: Unraveling the Tragedy of Air India Express Flight 812 Crash | Inside the Shocking Investigation of the Unstabilized Approach that Led to Catastrophe!"

Description:
In this eye-opening video, delve into the depths of the tragic Air India Express Flight 812 crash, a devastating incident that claimed the lives of 158 out of 166 people on board. Join us as we unveil the gripping details of the investigation conducted by the Ministry of Civil Aviation in India.

The flight, a Boeing 737-800, was on a routine journey from Dubai to Mangalore, with Captain Zlatko Glusica at the helm, an experienced aviator with over 10,000 flying hours, including substantial time on the Boeing 737-800. The First Officer, Harbinder Singh Ahluwalia, also a seasoned professional, was alongside him in the cockpit.

As the aircraft approached Mangalore, it faced the challenge of a tabletop runway with elevated terrain on both ends. Despite warnings about an unserviceable radar at Mangalore Area Radar since May 20, the crew continued with the approach. Special qualifications mandated that only the Captain execute takeoffs and landings at this challenging airport.

However, critical lapses unfolded during the descent. The aircraft remained high, deviating from the standard ILS approach, putting it almost twice as high as required. The First Officer failed to initiate a go-around, and the Captain increased the descent rate to an alarming 4000 ft per minute.

Despite multiple warnings from the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) and urgent calls from the First Officer to abort the landing, the Captain persisted. The aircraft touched down far down the runway, overshooting its limits and careening into a runway end safety area, ultimately crashing into a gorge, leading to the destruction of the plane.

Join us as we scrutinize the investigation's findings, pointing to the Captain's failure to discontinue the unstabilized approach, his persistence in landing against all odds, and the potential impact of a prolonged sleep during the flight. This comprehensive analysis sheds light on the tragic events that unfolded that fateful day and the critical lessons learned from this aviation disaster.
