S13E05 dissapointment :(


When watching S13E05 "Queens Catastrophe", Deja Vu feeling didn't want to leave me. And, of course, This episode is the same with Seconds From Disaster S03E09 "Plane Crash in Queens" (New York Air Crash) (aired on September 6, 2006)

Such a dissapointment. I have seen it already. :(

Can anyone confirm if there are some differences or are they both exactly the same?

Get a grip.

These two episodes are different in many ways.

ACI is much more detailed and well made, and holds a lot more details and other information in general. Compared to seconds from disaster (Which btw. are close to being un-watchable, due to the whole fast pace and ridiculous dramatic music in the background)

Seen both, can't really remember Seconds From Disaster version, watched it some time ago. You, probably, are right about details. But, in general, basic information the same. Tail (or how was it called? sorry, not my native) came off because of pilot error etc.

When watched ACI version, I was pretty bored, because I already knew the outcome, reason, conclusion. :/

Now I learned from Wikipedia and Google, that this is not the only case. That many events has been redone in various version by various shows. Dough, it's logically. Haven't thought that far. :D

Not to mention the narrator who sounds like Robin Leach. Like it's Airline Disasters of the Rich and Famous. SfD has poor reenactments and doesn't delve into the investigation of the disasters like ACI.

the BBC documentary about flight 587 was a lot better IMO.
