@land_or_go_around: The FAA DC-7 crash test was basically an airplane obstacle course. Telephone poles, two hills and some very unhappy dummies. Case: FAA-ADS-37. Sources: Federal Aviation Agency archival film. #Aviation #DC7 #CrashTest #AviationHistory
They found out if you slam a plane into dirt and a telephone pole that you die. Wow, insane revelation

Fun fact. They did this test at Deer Valley Airport in Phoenix, AZ. Today its the busiest general aviation Airport in the country.

Have to wonder how those cameras were set up. That’s probably film. Magnetic media was around but only studio grade stuff.

Actually this clip demonstrates one test of different fuel additive variants to mitigate the explosive effects of fuel upon impact. The poles were meant to ensure the wing fuel tanks were ruptured.

contrary to the visuals, they learned a lot about survivability that day. they learned you could drop one of the phone poles on top of the fuselage and have a world class weenie roast, not having moved an inch.
