1959 Test Flight Crash Boeing 707
Interesting video - we are all of course familiar with Tex Johnston's famous 707 barrel roll demonstration, but the crew of this 1959 707 pre-delivery flight demonstration ignored bank angle and g limitations, and the flight unfortunately ended with an accident precipitated by the loss of three of the four engines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBVQzzeGKNg.
