What happens when overconfidence meets poor decision-making? On November 9, 2014, a Learjet 35A operated by Diplomat Aviation (Bahamas) Ltd. crashed during its second approach to Freeport International Airport in Grand Bahama. The result: nine lives lost, and a chain of failures that shook the aviation community.
In this pulse-pounding episode of Brasher Warning, we dive into the troubling details of this avoidable tragedy. Discover how procedural noncompliance, disabling critical safety systems like Terrain Awareness and Warning Systems (TAWS), and ineffective Crew Resource Management (CRM) led to the crew descending below minimum safe altitudes in poor weather, striking a crane, and crashing into a recycling facility.
This episode isn’t just a cautionary tale—it’s a call to action for pilots, operators, and regulators. Learn how gaps in training, oversight, and decision-making contributed to this devastating accident, and what steps must be taken to prevent similar tragedies. Tune in for an engaging, emotional, and deeply informative look at the Learjet crash that could have—and should have—been avoided.
