Crash of Helios 522

Hey ya,

Currently I am learning Module 11. It is about aircraft structure and all the component inside the aircraft. 3 module to go! And I will finish my Cat A programme! I'm so exited to go across.. OJT time! Masa yang dinanti nantikan! Okay wait.. Dah macam lari topic ni.. 

Full video about this crash

Actually I want to share a story about what I had read and watch.. It is about what happen to Helios Airways Flight 522. I know about this incident when Haji Talib had mention about it when we learn about Hypoxia and Anoxia. Bila Haji Talib cakap yang this Aircraft was flying with everybody inside it was sleeping, I become so eager to know about it. Why they all sleep including the captain and the first officer? 

This is because of Hypoxia and Anoxia. Keadaan ni berlaku when tak cukup oxygen bila in flight. Kalau if tak teruk lagi (Hypoxia) it wiil cause us to sleep.. but bila dah betul2 kurang oxygen (Anoxia) it will cause death.. Dah nama pun xcukup oxygen.. memang lah mati kan? This aircraft crash on mountains.
