Redtail,

Its okay Its Okay was the Saudia L1011 with the cabin fire that burned up killing all 400 or so people on it. The captain was singing and the engineer had THICK glasses and they didnt stop the jet quickly, instead they taxied the whole length of the runway with the fire trucks chasing them. They never depressurized so they couldn't get the door open. All lost aboard after a successful if deliberate return to the airfield by severe mishandling of the A/C by the captain...

Cheers. .Wino
