@ironhawks__: The DC-10 With No Flight Controls | United Airlines Flight 232 On July 19, 1989, a United Airlines DC-10 suffers a catastrophic failure of its tail-mounted engine, destroying all three hydraulic systems that powered the flight controls. With the aircraft barely controllable, the crew attempts an emergency landing at Sioux City, Iowa; 111 of the 296 people on board are killed. #Aviation #United232 #DC10 #AviationHistory #IronHawks
