Panic Over The Pacific (China Airlines Flight 006)

On 19 February 1985, China Airlines Flight 006’s number four (right-side outer) engine flames out. As the crew tries to restart the engine, the Boeing 747SP stalls and enters into a spin. The crew successfully regains control, restarts the engine and lands safely at San Francisco International Airport. The incident was caused by pilot error.
