Listen "Seconds to Disaster: The CV-22B Osprey Crash and the Cost of Split-Second Decisions"
Episode Synopsis
A routine infiltration mission. A highly experienced crew. A cutting-edge aircraft. So what went so horribly wrong?
In this gripping episode of Brasher Warning, we dissect the harrowing crash of a CV-22B Osprey during a special operations mission in Afghanistan. Using the Official Accident Investigation Report, we unravel the series of compounding factors—misjudged weather conditions, high-speed approach errors, cockpit overload, and even the haunting effects of negative transfer from outdated training.
With chilling cockpit voice recordings capturing the final moments, we explore:
🚨 The pressures of combat aviation and how mission urgency impacts safety.
🌪️ The deadly tailwind factor—why miscalculated weather doomed the approach.
🛑 The cost of human error—task saturation, miscommunication, and why even the best pilots can be overwhelmed.
💡 The technology trap—how new aircraft systems can backfire when instincts revert to old habits.
🔥 The crash itself—why a seemingly controlled landing turned catastrophic in mere seconds.
This isn’t just a story about what went wrong—it’s a wake-up call for pilots, engineers, and decision-makers. How do we train for the unexpected? How do we build a culture where safety isn’t sacrificed for speed? And what can we do to prevent history from repeating itself?
