The Boeing 747-SR46 that made this route, registered JA8119, crashed into the ridge of Mount Takamagahara in Gunma Prefecture, Japan 100 km from Tokyo, on Monday August 12, 1985. The crash site was on Osutakano-O'ne (Osutaka Ridge), near Mount Osutaka. It remains the worst single-aircraft disaster in history, and the second-worst aviation accident of all time, second only to the Tenerife disaster. All 15 crew members and 505 out of 509 passengers died (including the famous singer Kyu Sakamoto): a total of 520 deaths. The four female survivors were seated towards the rear of the plane: Yumi Ochiai, an off-duty JAL flight attendant, age 25, who was jammed between a number of seats; Hiroko Yoshizaki, a 34-year-old woman and her 8-year-old daughter Mikiko, who were trapped in an intact section of the fuselage; and a 12-year-old girl, Keiko Kawakami, who was found sitting on a branch in a tree. -- The cause of the crash according to the official report published by the Japanese Aircraft and Railway Accidents Investigation Commission, is as follows: The aircraft was involved in a tailstrike incident at Itami Airport on June 2, 1978, which damaged the aircraft's rear pressure bulkhead. The subsequent repair performed by Boeing was flawed. Boeing's procedures called for a doubler plate with two rows of rivets to cover up the damaged bulkhead, but the engineers fixing the aircraft used two doubler plates with only one row of rivets. This reduced the part's resistance to metal fatigue by 70%. According to the FAA, the one "doubler plate" which was specified for the job, (the FAA calls it a "splice plate" - essentially a patch), was surprisingly cut into two pieces parallel to the stress crack it was intended to reinforce, "to make it fit". This negated the effectiveness of one of the two rows of rivets. During the investigation Boeing calculated that this incorrect installation would fail after approximately 10,000 pressurizations; the aircraft accomplished 12,319 take-offs between the installation of the new plate and the final accident. When the bulkhead gave way, it ruptured the lines of all four hydraulic systems. With the aircraft's control surfaces disabled, the aircraft was uncontrollable.   Less

A European probe that landed on a comet in a first for space exploration is resting on the surface despite technical problems, pictures beamed half a billion kilometres back to Earth showed on Thursday. The European Space Agency (ESA) has published an image of the 100-kg lander – virtually weightless in its current environment – on the comet’s bleak, rocky surface. It said data showed the lander had twice bounced back into space after touching down on Wednesday, but then come to rest at around 1830 CET. The lander, named Philae, was launched from its mothership Rosetta on Wednesday as it orbited comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, the climax of a 10-year-odyssey for the ESA. But during Philae’s seven-hour descent to the comet, harpoons designed to anchor it failed to deploy, raising concerns the lander might drift back into space. Scientists hope that samples drilled out from the comet by Philae will unlock details about how the planets – and possibly even life – evolved, as the rock and ice that make up comets preserve ancient organic molecules like a time capsule. Comets date back to the formation of the solar system some 4.6 billion years ago. Scientists suspect impacting comets delivered water to early Earth. (Reuters)   Less

On September 17, 1944, General Montgomery's army launched the Battle of Arnhem, a bold attempt to capture a strategic bridgehead over the lower Rhine. Poor planning and unexpectedly fierce resistance caused the allies to withdraw after ten days of bitter fighting and heavy casualties. In spite of the losses, the Dutch viewed the battle as a positive sign of strong allied resistance on their own territory and the beginning of the end of the detested German occupation. The battle of Arnhem was a courageous strategic gamble which failed. Had it been a success victory might have been achieved in the West before the Russians had reached Berlin, Prague or Vienna. The Americans made a film in the 70s which caused a great deal of trouble. It was called A Bridge too Far, and maintained that the fault for the failure lay entirely in the laps of the British command, led by ‘Boy’ Browning, played by an ageing, soigné Dirk Bogarde. Sean Connery increased his reputation as an actor by playing the part of General Urquhart. Edward Fox captured the personality of Sir Brian Horrocks exactly. Michael Caine was a charismatic tank commander, and Anthony Hopkins played an exceedingly brave infantry commander (Colonel Frost), who succeeded in holding up immensely superior German tank forces at the bridgebefore being forced to surrender himself and his entire battalion to the vistorious German army. #financial_support_div{ display:none; position: absolute; width:300px; height:180px; margin-left: -150px; margin-top: -70px; /*- half of width and height */ top:50%; left:50%; padding: 5px; opacity:0.9; filter:alpha(opacity=90); z-index:1000; background-color:#000; color: white; } .close_box{ background: gray; color:#fff; padding:1px 3px; display:inline; position:absolute; right:1px; margin-right: -13px; margin-top: -13px; border-radius:3px; cursor:pointer; border: 1px #000 solid; } $(document).on("click",".close_box",function(){ $(this).parent().fadeTo(300,0,function(){ $(this).remove(); }); }); Loading the player ...   Less

Thousands of supporters of PEGIDA (Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West) gathered in the German town of Dresden on Sunday for an anti-Islam protest. One of the group’s founders, Lutz Bachmann, recently resigned after German media published Facebook messages in which he called refugees “dirty” and posed as Adolf Hitler. Protesters waved German, Russian and Nordic Cross flags and shouted “we are the people,” the slogan used by demonstrators against the Berlin Wall in 1989. Some protesters carried banners denouncing “Islamisation” and rejecting the TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) trade agreement with the US. One protester said “My ideal is lawful and ordered immigration. We need expert know-how. Let’s spell it out: we have enough kebab shops!” Counter demonstrations were held in the same square where crowds chanted “Say it loud, say it clear, refugees are welcome here!” Counter-protesters waved “no racism” banners and the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) flag, while shouting at the PEGIDA supporters: “there is no justification for Nazi propaganda.”   Less

As Presidents Obama and Castro arrived in Panama for the Summit of the Americas, reports said the US State Department had recommended removing Cuba from its list of nations said to sponsor terrorism. The two countries’ foreign ministers have already been meeting. US Secretary of State John Kerry “made progress“ in talks with Cuba’s foreign minister on Thursday night as the two countries seek to put behind decades of animosity and restore full diplomatic relations, the US government said. “Secretary Kerry and Cuban Foreign Minister (Bruno) Rodriguez had a lengthy and very constructive discussion this evening. The two agreed they made progress and that we would continue to work to resolve outstanding issues,“ a senior State Department official said. In Jamaica, earlier though, President Obama urged patience when it comes to US-Cuba relations. “I never foresaw that immediately, overnight, everything would transform itself, that suddenly overnight Cuba became a partner diplomatically the way Jamaica is for example. That is going to take some time,” he said. The US says the two foreign ministers have made progress after a lengthy discussion. It’s the first such high-level meeting between the former Cold War enemies since 1958. Removing Cuba from the list would clear a major obstacle in the effort to restore diplomatic relations between Washington and Havana, paving the way for the reopening of embassies that have been shut for 54 years, and signal momentum in ending America’s isolation from the Communist island nation. Obama did not signal how he was leaning, but his previous statements have suggested that he would approve taking Cuba off the list. Cuba was added to the list of terrorism sponsors in 1982, when it was aiding Marxist insurgencies in Colombia and elsewhere. Other countries on the list include Iran, Sudan and Syria.   Less

Police in Charleston have released pictures of a young man they believe is responsible for the church shootings which left nine people dead. Police admit they have no idea where he is at present. A manhunt is underway for the suspect. The public have been warned he is dangerous, and he is not to be approached. Reverand Clementa Pinckney has been confirmed dead. A state senator, he is also the pastor of the targeted Emanuel African Methodist Church. Police Chief Gregory Mullen said he believes the shooting was a hate crime. Authorities have not yet identified the victims, or the shooter. “The only reason someone could walk in a church and shoot people praying is that of hate, the only reason… That is the most dastardly act that one can possibly imagine. And we would bring that person to justice as soon as possible,” said the Mayor of Charleston, Joseph P. Riley Jr. The church is known to have one of the largest and oldest black congregations in the region. Prayers have been said near the site of the shooting, while helicopters circle overhead and dozens of law enforcement officers, several equipped with military-style rifles, carry out ground searches.   Less
