The aircraft impacted nose first in a near vertical dive and buried itself in the swamp. There were no survivors." <br><br>I think you're referring to the Valujet (?) crash a few years ago. There was another crash quite a few years back, in which the flight crew became obsessed with tracing a faulty indicator light and none of them noticed that the autopilot altitude hold had been disconnected. It's one of the classic case studies for CRM (Cockpit Resource Management or Crew Resource Management). I'm sure there were survivors from that crash; in fact, I remember television footage of a badly injured passenger being brought out on a stretcher and pleading with reporters to leave him alone. Of course, it was a long time ago and I may have gotten it confused with something else.<br><br>
