The image of the quiet California suburb under the clear warm sky was set ablaze in total devastation as a passenger plane crashed into the homes of residents. Several homes were destroyed, over 80 people were now dead. For those at the scene of the disaster, this already horrific day would take another devastating turn as the wreckage of a second plane was discovered just a few blocks away. This terrifying accident would bring into question the safety of our skies, especially around busy airports. The date was August 31st, 1986. In the United States the end of summer is associated with the Labor Day holiday, celebrated over a long weekend. It was a quiet Sunday over the skies of Los Angeles, there weren’t that many flights that day. One flight that was operating was Aeromexico Flight 498 from Tijuana to Los Angeles. #aviation Sources: https://web.archive.org/web/20071202184809/http://www.airdisaster.com/reports/ntsb/AAR87-07.pdf http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19860831-0 https://www.presstelegram.com/2016/08/30/cerritos-plane-crash-30-years-ago-you-either-died-or-you-didnt/ https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/watch-the-nightmare-of-flight-498-cerritos-air-disaster/2974880/ https://tailstrike.com/database/31-august-1986-aeromexico-498/ https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3foq22 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czj-81mXQ-4&ab_channel=Cerritos86 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWfyQeS8EIM&ab_channel=Cerritos86
