13:26Now PlayingA Kenmore Air de Havilland DHC-3 Otter carrying 10 passengers and one pilot crashed near Sucia Island in Washington’s San Juan Islands before becoming engulfed in flames.
Remarkably, everyone aboard survived.
The aircraft had departed Seattle’s Lake Union and was traveling to Roche Harbor when the pilot reportedly adjusted the flight path in response to developing weather. Witness video shows the floatplane flying low before striking the rocky shoreline near Shallow Bay.
In this episode, retired airline captain and naval aviator Captain Steeeve examines the available footage, the aircraft’s apparent flight path, the weather surrounding the accident, the challenges of operating a floatplane and the extraordinary evacuation that followed.
The exact cause of the crash has not been determined. The NTSB and FAA are investigating, and Captain Steeeve’s analysis is based solely on the limited information currently available.
Our thoughts are with the passengers, pilot, their families and everyone affected by this accident.
