The Douglas DC10, even before 1979 suffered multiple hull loses and even for a time, held the accolade of being the aircraft involved in the deadliest air disaster to have occurred at that time. It’s a plane which certainly has a divided history. It’s pilots loved the plane. Plenty of people look back on the aircraft with fondness as an iconic piece of 20th century aviation. On the other hand, it had developed a reputation among passengers and the media due to its string of high profile incidents. 1979 was the plane’s deadliest year. Whether or not this reputation was warranted is up for debate. Because as with the case of this accident, there really wasn’t any wrong with the plane. Still, Western Airlines Flight 2605 contributed to that long list of accidents on October 31st, 1979.
