Remembrance forum 1

Hi all.

From now on every day I will do a memorial for a fatal crash in memory of the victims. Only some will be anniversaries because it's too hard to find one everyday.

Today's memorial is to Singapore Airlines Flight 006, 31 October 2000.

Singapore Airlines Flight 006 was an international scheduled passenger flight from Singapore Changi Airport to Los Angeles International Airport via Chiang Kai-shek International Airport (now known as Taoyuan International Airport) near Taipei, Taiwan. On 31 October 2000, at 23:18 Taipei local time (14:18 UTC), the Boeing 747-412 operating the flight attempted to take off from the wrong runway at Chiang Kai-shek International Airport during a typhoon. The aircraft crashed into construction equipment on the runway, killing 83 of the 179 people aboard. Ninety-eight occupants initially survived the accident, but two passengers died later from injuries in the hospital. This was the first fatal crash involving a Boeing 747-400, and also the first fatal accident in the history of Singapore Airlines.
