Summary

[edit]
Non-free media information and use rationale true for United Airlines Flight 232
Description

United Airlines Flight 232 crashing at Sioux Gateway Airport. The video of the event was misconstrued by both witnesses and the media as the plane cartwheeling, due to misinterpretation of the video of the crash that showed the flaming right wing tumbling end-over-end. In reality, the plane landed askew and broke up into several large pieces.
