*Synopsis | Captain Fantastic (2011)*
Qantas has long been revered as the safest airline in the world. But it's a reputation that has taken a battering. Literally. In 2010, an engine on one of its massive A380s exploded in mid-air. A lot of things went wrong that day. In fact, the flight crew had to deal with more than 60 separate system failures. But a lot of things also went right, thanks largely to the man at the controls. Only his cool head and keen instincts got the plane down safely. It truly is an amazing story.
