東京理科大学 A英1: Final presentation supporting post (Tenerife airliner disaster)・期末プレゼンテーションの付記 [テネリフェ空港ジャンボ機衝突事故]

Hello!



How are you? Here is a final presentation supporting post for any groups in A英1 interested in the Tenerife airport disaster (テネリフェ空港ジャンボ機衝突事故) in 1976

This can give any of the groups interested in this theme some more background as to what happened in this disaster, and how it happened


The map above shows where it happened - on the island of Tenerife, in the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. The Canary Islands are controlled by Spain. The map below shows where Tenerife is located in the Canary Islands:




Below is a map of where the Canary Islands are in the Atlantic Ocean


Watch the video below. It is a CG recreation of the accident. As you watch, make notes about each step of events that led to the accident. What exactly happened, and how do you think it could have been prevented? Then talk about what you saw from the notes you made. 


For any groups interested in this theme and developing a topic from it about human or mechanical errors in airlines, ships, trains, or spacecraft - I hope you find this helpful. 

See you next time!
