Northwest Airlines Flight 255, a McDonnell Douglas MD-82, crashed shortly after takeoff from Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport on August 16, 1987, at about 8:46 p.m. EDT (00:46 UTC August 17), killing all six crew members and 148 of its 149 passengers. The sole survivor was a 4-year-old girl, Cecelia Cichan, who sustained serious injuries.〔"Flight 255", Ankony, Robert C., Director, CFM Research.("Flight 255" )〕 It was the second-deadliest aviation accident at the time in the United States and the second-deadliest involving the McDonnell Douglas MD-80 series; , the crash is the fourth-deadliest in both categories and the deadliest sole-survivor incident in aviation history. The flight and its two pilots originated at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport,〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r9_kzJOr-Q National Geographic's "Mayday/Air Crash Investigation" - Cockpit Chaos (Alarming Silence).〕 flying to MBS International Airport in Saginaw, Michigan, and was scheduled to terminate at John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, California, with intermediate stops at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport in Romulus, Michigan (outside of Detroit, Michigan) and Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, Arizona. == Aircraft and crew ==
The aircraft, a twin-engine McDonnell Douglas MD-82 with tail number N312RC, was piloted by 57-year-old Captain John R. Maus and 35-year-old First Officer David J. Dodds. Maus was an experienced pilot, who had worked for the airline for nearly 32 years and had 20,859 hours of flying time. Dodds had logged 8,044 flight hours during his career, and had worked for the airline for more than eight years.〔National Geographic Channel's, "Mayday, Alarming Silence," Episode nine, March 15, 2010〕 Flight 255 carried 149 passengers and six crew members.〔"Flight 255", Ankony, Robert C., Director, CFM Research.()〕 The jet was manufactured in 1981, entering service with Republic Airlines. It was acquired by Northwest Airlines in its merger with Republic in 1986, and the aircraft bore mixed Republic-Northwest livery (Republic stripes, with "Northwest" titles and the "Northwest Orient" logo on the forward fuselage) at the time of the accident.
