Part 7/10:
The journey had transformed from a routine flight to an extraordinary battle for survival. Passengers experienced the rapid descent firsthand; the roar of the engines faded, accompanied by a frightening smell of ash and an eerie darkened cabin blocked from sunlight. The pilots’ only hope rested in restarting the engines and recovering electrical power.
A Miraculous Recovery
After several failed attempts to restart the engines, fatigue set in as the aircraft descended below 10,000 feet. Finally, on the eighth attempt, the Captain managed to reignite the engines on the left side of the aircraft, restoring partial power. As descend continued through 11,000 feet, the remaining engines sputtered back to life, offering a glimmer of hope.
