Convair 990 Crash
Khosrov Jabrayilov on Instagram: "Convair 990 Coronado named "Baselland" departed Zurich for Tel Aviv. Just minutes into the flight, a bomb detonated in the rear cargo hold. Despite the crew's heroic efforts to return to the airport, smoke filled the cockpit, blinding them and disabling the instruments. The aircraft crashed in a wooded area near Würenlingen, Switzerland. Tragically, all 47 people on board lost their lives. 🎥:coolkid11 #aviation #avgeek #fyp #swissair #crash"
