Jul 2, 2021Accident · Honolulu, HINTSB #DCA21FA174Aircraft in report: BOEING 737-275CDamage: DestroyedHighest injury: Serious
NTSB probable cause: The flight crewmembers’ misidentification of the damaged engine (after leveling off the airplane and reducing thrust) and their use of only the damaged engine for thrust during the remainder of the flight, resulting in an unintentional descent and forced ditching in the Pacific Ocean. Contributing to the accident were the flight crew’s ineffective crew resource management, high workload, and stress.
