Moments Before Disaster

[NonStopsAviation]

Discover Airlines flight 61 is flying from Fort Myers to Frankfurt a popular routes for German travelers to explore the beauty of Florida’s gulf coast. Little did they know, they would all be in hot water after a fuel leak and they began losing fuel rapidly. Luckily thanks to the crew fast thinking, they diverted to Shannon to refuel and continue on their original plan only wasting an hour and a half.

Doesn’t Alaska technically border the Arctic and Pacific oceans?

Amazing photo! discover is definitely underrated.

Very pretty lighting! Sucks for those passengers though - hopefully nobody has tight connections.
