Episode Overview

On January 8, 2003, Air Midwest Flight 5481 tragically crashes into a hangar at Charlotte/Douglas International Airport just moments after departing for Greenville.

Subsequent investigations revealed that improper adjustments to the pilots' controls during maintenance were a major factor, alongside the aircraft being overloaded because of an outdated method for calculating passenger weights.
