As Aeroperú 603 flew over the Pacific Ocean on a pitch-black night, nothing seemed amiss to any of the 70 passengers on board. But inside the cockpit, the two pilots faced an absolute nightmare: their plane had seemingly turned against them. The Boeing 757 was giving false altitude, speed, stall warnings, overspeed warnings, and many others. They had no clue what their altitude or airspeed was. Flying over the ocean in a hazy night, the pilots could see nothing at all. And without their instruments, they were truly flying blind. But how did a state-of-the-art aircraft fail like this? Or rather, who damaged the aircraft to make it fail? Could the torturous deaths of 70 people have been avoided? Tune in this week as Caroline and Trevor discuss this disturbing case.<br/><br/>A full list of victims wasn't able to be found for this case. An excellent, respectful contemporary article about the crash is here:<br/>https://www.nytimes.com/1996/1....0/03/world/70-on-per
