Case in great condition. Quality is such that I'd not be afraid to give it as a gift to someone. Thank you to the seller for a good, quality product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "We've Been Lucky Too Long." *by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2007* This episode of "Nova" is a standout for the normally very well made series. Narrated by Stacy Keach, the subject of this show is the deadly collision on the runway of two 747's on the Canary Island of Tenerife which killed 583 people. It is still the deadliest aviation accident in history.The DVD explores the intricate set of circumstances that came together to cause the accident, and while human error, especially in the KLM crew, was the obvious focus of the episode, other deeper causes are analyzed. The interviews are generally well executed, although there are minor misstatements in places which do not materially detract from the points being made.I was pleased that the show didn't stop at the Tenerife accident, but discussed the implications of runway incursions going forward. The NTSB and FAA have targeted runway incursions for years, and many (myself included) believe that the relative avoidance of accidents (there are exceptions, certainly) in recent years is more a matter of luck than anything else. Although systems for mitigating incursions are in development, none has yet come to full fruition, and even simple things such as in-ground flashing lights signaling the entry to a runway are uncommon except at very large airports. One gentleman interviewed put it perfectly: "We've been lucky too long." He's right, and this episode of Nova not only explains how it happened, but how it can happen again.This is highly recommended for anyone with an interest in aviation safety, or safety systems in general. The computer animations, while not up to the CGI effects of a Hollywood production, are quite effective, and the reenactments are much more skillfully staged than in many aviation programs. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well compiled, but missing an important theory *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2013* I enjoy documentaries on engineering and natural disasters. The scicence of accident investigation is very amusing and I enjoy puzzles and mysteries. This is largest life-loss event in aviation history and its a very interesting story on how problems with communication, systems, and coincidence can create disaster. There are some interviews with survivors, computer animation, and recreation by actors as well as news footage. The film includes some information on the changes in the industry since the PanAm/KLM crash at Tenerife that have made aviation safer.I do find watching the episode of "Seconds From Disaster" (aired by the National Geographic Channel) an important supplement as it includes the theory of a heterodyne that temporarily masked important communications between the two 747s involved and the tower at Los Rodeos Airport. This documentary preseted by Nova doesn't include that theory, but details the official investigation quite well. 4 of 5 stars. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/52383501-nova-the-deadliest-plane-crash-dvd](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/52383501-nova-the-deadliest-plane-crash-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
