1) American indie rock band currently signed to Polyvinyl Record Company. The four members of Aloha are scattered across the eastern half of the country, but spend most of their time making music together. Some Echoes is the second Aloha album since T.J. Lipple joined the band, and was recorded, mixed and mastered at Silver Sonya, the studio he runs with Chad Clark (Beauty Pill) in Arlington, Va.

Tony Cavallario and T.J. began playing together during a lull in Aloha's schedule in late 2002, when they both lived in Pittsburgh. T.J. joined the band in May of 2003, when Cale Parks, Tony and Matthew Gengler joined him at his grandpa's empty house in Altoona, PA. There they began writing 2004's Here Comes Everyone though at the time they didn't know it. With T.J. came a more focused approach to making music and a host of new tools including marimba, homemade mellotrons, organs and tape manipulations. T.J.'s skilled drumming also allowed Cale to move to the piano on occasion.

Aloha began with Tony and Matthew in the summer of 1997 in Bowling Green, OH, USA along with Eric Koltnow and Anthony Buehrer. Their first release, a self-titled and self-released 7" in an addition of 330 was delayed and issued sporadically when the artist hired to due the intaglio accompanying the record couldn't produce them to speed. One of the few bands to ever actually get a record deal based on a demo tape, the band spent time based out of Cleveland. In recent years, Aloha has operated from a number of bases, doing their writing, rehearsing and living in Chicago, Washington D.C., Cleveland, Cincinnati, Rochester, Pittsburgh and Altoona. Extensive touring has made Aloha renowned for their intense, non-stop live shows as well as their homemade T-shirts and self-reliant ethic. They have shared the stage the likes of Q and Not U, Ted Leo, Clinic, as well as Cex and Joan of Arc, two bands in which Cale Parks has been a member (including White Williams).

2) Female fronted heavy metal band from the 80's

I was aircraft maintenance in the Air Force for 11 years. I can tell you I've found numerous things on preflight inspections that would make your gut turn and instantly document and ground the aircraft even if it was a "Inconvenience" to the mission. When I joined my dad told me, "This is not a job to take lightly. There are a lot of people that put their life in your hands. It's not like a car where if something happens you just pull over. You are dealing with defying physics and you don't want your neglect to show blood on your hands." That just always stuck with me and was on my "A" game all the time. Such a miracle this turned out the way it did.

No credit for the structural engineers? If it wasn’t for them designing redundancy in the plane the captain wouldn’t have had a plane to fly. Greg Fieth is not a structural engineer and he doesn’t mind the spotlight so don’t rely on him to give credit where credit is due. I give credit to the captain and the structural engineers.

Absolutely incredible they were able to make a safe landing, and yes it was do to the amazing pilots.

Lai Yin Quan

@mark pope I agree that these people are definitely commendable, perhaps along with F.O. Mimi Thompkins. As said in the video, Maui's usual strong winds were unusually absent during their descent onto the tarmac, which could have veered the plane off into the soil and cause it to crash. So, they were incredibly lucky in that regard.

Huck Leigh

@mark pope No credit for the steel makers? If they didn’t make the good steel, the engineers couldn’t make a good fuselage, and the captain couldn’t fly the plain.

mark pope

3y↑14

@Huck Leigh The design quality can make the fuselage 100 times stronger but the quality of the steel would be more like 20% at most. For airplanes they mostly use aluminum

I was the reporter at the Maui radio station who originally broke this story. Someone called me anonymously in the newsroom and told me there was an aircraft emergency coming into the Kahului airport. I followed up with contacts I had and fairly quickly found out what was happening. That was the scariest story I ever covered and the death of the flight attendant was heart-breaking. However, the survival of everyone else aboard was truly a miracle and the pilots' and the remaining crews' professionalism was nothing short of heroic. Those passengers owe their lives to these people. Thank god for them.

In addition to the amazing skills of the pilot and co-pilot, major credit also needs to go to Michelle Honda. She moved through the cabin - without restraints and by hanging on to the seats - and got every single passenger into a flotation vest and into the brace position. And then rather than strapping herself in, she shielded her injured co-worker for the duration of the landing. I remember seeing an interview with the pilot not long after this happened. He said that once the plane was landed and stopped, he was certain he was going to look back into the cabin and see carnage and empty seats. What he saw were all the passengers, many injured but all of them safely in their seats. That entire crew were the definition of professionalism.

I am genuinely the biggest fan of this show ever, lol. It is so underrated yet incredible. It's really disheartening to me that it's not more popular when it is so well produced and well made. The reenactments and interviews are never cheesy or over-dramatic and everything is so realistic and Nat Geo-esque whilst still being engaging and fast-paced, I love it!

Again, truly wish it was more popular in the US. Their counterpart from the Weather Channel, "Why planes Crash" is such a joke in comparison. It doesn't even hold a candle to Mayday! Anyways, I'm so glad this show is still ongoing, although, again, I wish it were more easily accessible in the US... I purchased Smithsonian just to watch it and now, they've removed it from the app... So my only option is basically YouTube, which is annoying, bc from what I can tell, only the old episodes are available on here? (And I've already watched most episodes from S1-10 lol.)

I am a close personal Friend of Bob Schornstheimer the Captain of this flight. He was a T38 flight instructor in the Air Force with many years of experience. His skill level and level headed approach to flying saved this flight from disaster. A lot of luck was involved but if it was not for the experienced crew of that flight there would be more dead. Bob retired from Aloha Airlines and still to this day lives in Hawaii. I call him a hero but he does not like that term. They all did what they are trained to do day in day out. Just like anyone else. He happened to be at the right time saving people.

If I was the passenger that saw the crack by the door, I would said something to the stewardess immediately. Safety is number one priority in aviation. Because pilots and inspectors can’t be everywhere. If you see something out of the ordinary, on a plane say something. Your safety is more important than a flight

Great video. This incident happened three years before I was born. Excellent CRM (crew resource management) from both pilots. It’s amazing that only one person died, had the passengers removed their seats belts, the death toll would been higher. Aloha 243, passengers got extremely lucky that the plane didn’t break up in mid air.

It's such an important thing to remember in life that being rude or awkward is a lot better than being dead. If you think someone is being weird and uncomfortable, tell them and someone else. 99% of the time it's just someone being socially awkward, but 1% of the time your gut is right and that person is stalking you. You think someone is following you at night, but you don't want to offend them? Do it anyway. You see a crack on your airplane but don't want to be rude? Point it out anyway. It's difficult, but very important.

I was on this plane one week before this happened. The friend I was traveling with took photos of the ceiling area in first class where we were sitting and it was buckling. We mentioned this to the airline attendant before we disembarked. We were flying from Maui to Oahu. I have watched this documentary at least half dozen times and to this day, it terrifies me to think if we had traveled one week later. I am so so grateful that this airline had a brilliant pilot. And so many were saved. Blessings to this pilot and crew ! 🙏🏻

However you cannot out a price on human life, but they deserved just peace truly!!!! I'm so sorry they did not pay attention to those pictures!!! I probably would have called newspapers or news organizations with those pictures of the buckling, that should never ever be present on a plane!!! I always check around the door as I walk on a plane for any cracks, I do a complete visual around my area, window seals,seat bolts everything, I do every single flight I take!! I'm no expert but I don't know I think I just kinda feel safer if I give a good look it's weird for I don't know what I'd do if I found something, knowing me I would probably get off plane that's just me over cautious person!!!!

They weren’t trained for this procedure, but they were trained to nit let fear take part in any irrational decisions. They were trained for professionalism. They are taught to Aviate Navigate Communicate. They train to think of the unprepared. They take vital learning experiences and apply them with any situation that they weren’t trained on. It is remarkable, but with some mathematics and calculations, logic, experience, and a pinch of luck, all the things add up.

Beyond the incredible work of the crew, i'm also amazed at the plane itself. While it's true that that part of the fuselage failed , it's insane that the hydraulics managed to last as long as they did, considering half of the plane was missing at some parts that they were running through

My parents went to Hawaii in the 80,s. They were going to a another island and flew Aloha for this short trip . Right after takeoff there was a loud boom. My parents were seated behind the wing and could see smoke coming from one of the engines. The pilot came on the intercom and said they were going to do a emergency landing . They did a quick decent . They landed and were quickly boarded on to another plane. My father suffered hearing loss in one ear but never reported the injury. The reason for the engine explosion was a wretch was left inside it. Parts of the engine fell on a car dealership. Mercedes I believe.

What caused the Aloha acft separation was not only pressure cycles, but temperature deltas not unlike the seal in the STS Challenger booster rocket. Temperature deltas cause noted internal stresses of dissimilar materials as the titanium straps, aluminum frames, non metallic bonding and clad aluminum skins... see Mil-HDBK-5 for deltas.

He knows the odds of something going wrong with a plane are extremely low. Doesnt seem like it when you're watching a show like this but major problems with planes while in the air are rare. It makes less sense to get in a car considering the number of wrecks than to get on a plane. None of us hesitate to get in cars even tho we know well the risk involved. He sees planes the same way. He knows he's safer on a plane than any other form of transportation

Jackson Goulding

3y↑16

@Lola's Mom Yes the odds are low I just find it ironic

Arterexius

3y↑6

@Lola's Mom I'd wager that comparing plane accidents to accidents in all other forms of transport doesn't make any sense when we only factor in the number of accidents, as that leaves out a set of vital numbers: The number of deaths per accident, the likelihood of dying in an accident for each method of transport and the likelihood of dying in similar ways after each accident in each method of transport.

I also find it tragic that people are so much against a society with autonomous cars, when its literally autonomy that makes planes so safe. Remove the Autopilot and the number of fatal accidents will increase rather rapidly. Autopilots are so good that they're even used on cruise ships to make them safer. And several types of trains use Autopilot too. It's honestly ridiculous that society won't accept autonomous cars, trucks and buses. It would instantly be safer to travel and any accidents that would happen, would be easy to fix and make certain they won't happen again.

E Fulmer

3y↑12

@Arterexius The reason for the rejection I hear most often is the assumption of the car being completely autonomous and the subsequent loss of control. On a plane, there is a pilot up there and they have a significant amount of control. In an autonomous car, the assumption is that the driver will have very little or no possible control, which then makes the question of "do I live or die" no longer in the hands of the driver if something goes wrong, but in the team of software engineers who thought about that scenario or not.

The explosive sharp sound that began the Haloha flight 243 crisis was probably caused by a spontaneous failure in the structural support of the upper half of the air craft. The lack of beam(s) above the center stressed the structural support and they suddenly snapped. I hope that design reconsiderations have been made to correct this obvious inadequacy.

I remember this well. I was working as a Travel Agent in Berkeley, California. I sold an awful lot of plane tickets throughout my career and I never lost a passenger to any accident or cataclysmic failure, ect., but it was right around this awful disaster I just started advising all my clients to stay in their seats whenever they could and even when they turn off the buckle your seat belt lights, to just keep their seatbelts fastened anyway. Back then they told people it was okay to take off the seatbelts and to feel free to move around the cabin. That's really a terrible idea, because sometimes flights hit turbulence, and people not belted down can suddenly hit the ceiling and suffer injury.

I definitely believe the engineer’s theory along with the blood spatter expert.
