The 19 Minute Freefall | Air Transat 236

On August 24, 2001, Air Transat Flight 236 was cruising over the Atlantic Ocean when the unthinkable happened—both engines failed at 39,000 feet. With no power, no thrust, and hundreds of passengers on board, the Airbus A330 became the largest passenger jet ever to glide without engines.

Too far from Lisbon and running out of altitude, the crew faced an impossible question: Could they glide a massive wide-body aircraft for 19 minutes to a small military airfield 100 kilometers away?

This video tells the dramatic story of the event later known as “The Atlantic Glider.” From the chain of mechanical failures and fuel miscalculations to the crew’s calm decision-making under extreme pressure, experience how skill, physics, and courage turned a near-catastrophe into one of aviation’s most incredible survivals.

Using flight simulation, detailed visuals, and real investigation data, we break down how Air Transat 236 lost both engines, how the aircraft was flown without power, and how it safely landed at Lajes Air Base against all odds.

✈️ A true story that proves why training, discipline, and human judgment still matter in modern aviation.
