Also known as Miracle Flight 571, a chartered flight from Montevideo, Uruguay, set for Santiago, Chile, carrying 40 passengers and five crew members, crashed into the Andes mountains on October 13th, 1972. Those who survived the impact weren’t rescued. In fact, they were lost for 72 days in -30 degree temperatures, at an extremely high altitude and with little to no food, while the rest of the world thought they were dead. This is their story. The Uruguayan Air Force Fairchild FH-227D, which was four years old in 1972, was chartered by the Old Christians Club rugby union team to take its members and family to play a match against the English Old Boys Club in Santiago. On October 12th, the twin-engine turboprop departed from Montevideo Airport, but the team stopped in Argentina for the night due to a storm. The next day, the aircraft left at 14:18, and the pilots decided to fly a course south to the Pass of Planchón, Britannica explained. Pilot Julio Ferradas, who had flown across the Andes 29 times, was training a co-pilot, Dante Lagurara. At 15:21, a little after clearing the Pass, Laguara expected to reach Curicó within a minute and was ready to descend; however, air traffic controllers were concerned as it usually takes 11 minutes, but it took them three. Lagurara requested air controllers to descend, to which they accepted. This was the beginning of the aircraft’s deathly fate, as the pilot misjudged their position. Instead of Curicó, the Fairchild was still deep into the Andes. Lagurara said he expected to see some turbulence, but some passengers noticed the aircraft was dangerously close to the mountains. This was when Lagurara realized it was too late. He attempted to apply maximum power to gain more altitude, but at 15:30, the aircraft struck a mountain. It lost its right and left wing, and tail upon the impact. According to the Aviation Safety Network, the rest of the fuselage crashed and slid down a mountain for about 725 meters (2,378 ft) before hitting a glacier, later named Glacier of Tears. The wreckage halted in a remote valley in Argentina at an elevation of 3,570 meters (11,710 ft) near the Chilean border... To know the balance watch video..
