On May 31, 2014, a Gulfstream G-IV corporate jet prepared for a routine evening departure from Laurence G. Hanscom Field in Bedford, Massachusetts. But moments after attempting takeoff, the jet careened off the end of the runway, bursting into flames in a nearby ravine. All seven aboard perished, leaving investigators to piece together a shocking trail of errors and missed warnings.
This episode explores the chilling findings of the NTSB's investigation. How did experienced pilots habitually skip a crucial flight control check, a practice that proved catastrophic? Why did the plane’s gust lock—a device meant to secure control surfaces while parked—remain engaged during takeoff, and how did a design flaw in its interlock system escape FAA scrutiny? Finally, we examine the critical seconds during which the pilots failed to abort the takeoff, sealing their fate.
From the mechanical failures to the dangerous complacency of the flight crew, we uncover the human and systemic failures behind this tragedy. Tune in for an in-depth look at how this accident transformed industry safety standards and serves as a stark reminder of the unforgiving nature of aviation.
