The coidcidence there is the 'actor' who plays Greg Feith being also called Greg Feith! ;)

There's not much you could get past that bloke, he sure knows his stuff!
He also has very appropriate Car Rego Plates "CRASH1";)
 
Must be a new series starting on National Geographic Channel tonight,just seen that the Hudson River plane crash in 2009 is profiled in this episode.
7:30PM A.E.S.T on Channel 610,Foxtel/Austar.

I absolutely love this show, but Mrs MatF can't stand it. I'm not allowed to watch it when she's around :)

It's definitely an addiction. I can't get enough of it.
 
Excellent episode,not overly dramatized,well researched and gives a good indication of what amazing airmanship was involved in USAIR 1549.

New series starts here in the UK tonight, 1st episode is the BA 777 crash at LHR.
 
Bugger, I missed it.
No doubt they will replay a lot, but hopefully soon.
Edit: I will answer my own question, Nat Geo + 2 at 9.30pm.
 
Foxtel Guide lists the following

14th March - Season 9 Ep1
coughpit Failure: Minutes before they're scheduled to land in Zurich, the pilots of a routine passenger flight can't find the runway. They abort and power up the engines in order to climb. But they are too late.

21th March - Season 9 Ep2
The Heathrow Enigma: Minutes before it lands at Heathrow, an aircraft is inexplicably crippled by double engine failure and falls from the sky. Incredibly, everyone survives. But can investigators find what went wrong?

Seems SKY is playing the Heathrow ep first in the UK for rating, and foxtel doing a different lineup.
 
Not a Air Crash investigation episode but on a similar note, Nova in the usa aired a show on Air France 447 which tried to shed a light on possible explanations for this unsolved crash. By no means solving this mystery it still was interesting to watch.
Could only find the promo for it on youtube so it may be a torrent job to watch the full episode

I know what I'll be watching on my laptop on my next BA flight ex-SYD. :mrgreen:
 
This maybe off topic,and if it is I humbly apologize to the moderators but whilst on the subject of BA038 and US AIR 1549,I have to say that if there is anything that we have learnt from accidents like those two,and the incident involving QF32 it is that no matter
how advanced the aircraft in dangerous situations there is simply no substitute for a well trained,professional crew who know how to keep their heads in a crisis.
The crews involved in all 3 incidents performed brilliantly and we have them to thank for the fact that in 3 major aircraft incidents in the last 3 years not a single life was lost.

Apology for thread drift but I just had to get that off my chest.
Cheers
