On June 6, 1971, Hughes Airwest Flight 706 took off from Los Angeles on a routine passenger route to Seattle, with several planned stops. But what seemed like a normal flight turned into one of the most tragic mid-air collisions in U.S. aviation history. Unbeknownst to the crew, a military F-4B Phantom II jet with faulty radar, no transponder, and limited communication capabilities was also flying across the same skies.
This in-depth documentary tells the full story of Flight 706, detailing the events that led to its collision with a Marine fighter jet over California’s San Gabriel Mountains. We explore the technical failures, lack of coordination between civilian and military aviation, and how systemic issues contributed to a preventable disaster.
Discover how this crash changed U.S. airspace regulations forever. With a deep dive into official investigations, expert analysis, and firsthand accounts, this video brings clarity to a tragedy that reshaped aviation safety.
