A recently surfaced video of Aerosucre Flight A4320 offers new perspectives on the dramatic challenges faced by the crew during this notorious flight. Aerosucre, a Colombian cargo airline, has experienced several high-profile incidents over the years, and the A4320 event is one that continues to draw attention. This new footage sheds light on the operational difficulties and safety issues that have plagued the airline and prompted questions about the conditions surrounding its flights.
Challenges and Close Calls: The Takeoff Struggle of Aerosucre Flight A4320
Aerosucre Flight A4320 was a domestic cargo route involving a Boeing 727. On this particular flight, the aircraft faced severe challenges during takeoff, including runway length limitations, cargo weight distribution issues, and the impact of challenging winds. The video captures the plane’s initial struggle as it accelerated, clearly showing the difficulty it had in gaining enough lift. The footage follows the aircraft as it barely clears the runway’s end, striking a perimeter fence and other obstacles. This dangerous trajectory highlights the narrow margin the plane had for error in its takeoff attempt.
The incident closely resembles the tragic crash of Aerosucre Flight 157 in 2016, which also involved a Boeing 727 operated by the airline. In that crash, the aircraft failed to achieve the necessary lift due to a series of miscalculations and regulatory oversights, ultimately resulting in a fatal crash shortly after takeoff. Aerosucre’s history of incidents, including A4320 and Flight 157, has raised significant concerns within the Colombian aviation industry regarding safety protocols and regulatory enforcement.
