October 23, 201510 yr I stumbled on this on Netflix yesterday; I saw someone posted about this movie a couple of years ago. It's actors recreating several famous plane crashes based upon the cockpit voice recordings. It is macabre, but as a makebelieve flightsim airline pilot, I found the dialogue very interesting, seeing how the flight crew interacted, sometimes tragically missing vital clues, other times acting with amazing calm and competence. The "cockpits" used are crude, but the point of the movie was the people. It also made me realize that thanks to products such as the PMDG NGX and FS2Crew, I actually had a fairly good understanding of what the flight crew were doing and saying. It's sort of an airline pilot horror movie - I have to admit there was at least one time I jumped. If you watch it, I'd suggest not googling the content first. Although I remember two of the crashes, one because it was about 60 miles away from my home and the other because it's quite famous, it was interesting watching it "blind," not knowing what was happening or what was going to happen.
