This Should NEVER Have Happened!! | The Insane Story Of Air Niugini Flight 73

No new uploads arrived from Mentour Pilot, but the channel's Air Niugini Flight 73 investigation has plenty of activity around it. Published just before this week's window, it has reached roughly 850,000 views and is drawing the most daily views among the channel's currently busiest videos.

The episode examines the September 2018 flight that came down short of the runway at Chuuk International Airport in Weno, ending up in Chuuk Lagoon. Its central question is how the aircraft reached that situation, with the final accident investigation report among the sources cited.

Across the channel, the week brought about 2.6 million views without a new release. The subscriber total held steady, while daily viewing is currently around a third of its usual level. Fellow aviation channel Pilot Debrief is also experiencing a slower-than-usual daily pace; PeterSripol is closer to its normal rhythm.

Mentour Pilot's older Miami crash Short also continues to draw views. But Flight 73 supplies the strongest momentum right now, with an account that includes local people taking small boats out into the lagoon to attempt a rescue.
