How Hierarchy and Grammar Crash Planes?

Korean Air Flight 8509 crashed when the captain relied on a malfunctioning instrument, and his crew stayed silent due to rigid social hierarchies, preventing correction of fatal errors.PSA Flight 182 collided mid-air after the crew lost visual contact with a smaller plane, compounded by a linguistic misunderstanding with air traffic control over the word “passed” versus “passing.”Both incidents show how human factors and communication failures can cause disaster, leading to improvements in cockpit resource management and collision avoidance systems.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/Air_Crash_ChroniclesProduced by Podcai Studio:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
