From Season 2 Episode 2 “A Wounded Bird”: On August 21, 1995, Flight ASA 529 took off from Atlanta, Georgia, headed for Gulfport, Mississippi. Shortly after takeoff there was a loud thud, followed by a continual thumping noise. The 26 Passengers on board could see that one of the four propeller blades was now just a stub and the mangled mass of the engine was glued to the left wing. The plane was now effectively flying on one wing! The flight crew desperately tried to keep the plane airborne, but was forced to make a crash landing.
