TWA Flight 841 (1979)

TWA Flight 841 was a domestic, scheduled passenger flight from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, en route to Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport in Minneapolis, Minnesota. On April 4, 1979, at or around 9:48 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (01:48 UTC), while flying over Saginaw, Michigan, the Boeing 727-31 airliner began a sharp, uncommanded roll to the right, and subsequently went into a spiral dive. Pilots were able to regain control of the aircraft and made a successful emergency landing at Detroit Metropolitan Airport.
== Incident ==

At 8:25 p.m. EST, TWA Flight 841 departed JFK International after a 45-minute delay due to traffic congestion. After traveling nearly 540 miles (875 km),〔http://www.distancefromto.net/〕 while cruising at 39,000 feet (11.9 km) near the city of Saginaw, Michigan, Captain Harvey "Hoot" Gibson says the aircraft was operating with the autopilot on "Altitude Hold" mode when it began a steep roll to the right. The crew immediately disconnected the autopilot and tried to bring the aircraft back to a wings level attitude. Despite the best efforts of the flight crew, the aircraft spiraled out of control, diving about 34,000 feet (10,363 m) in just 63 seconds. During the course of the dive, the plane rolled through 360 degrees twice and crossed the Mach limit for the 727 airframe.
Control was regained at about 5,000 feet (1,524 m) after the pilots extended the landing gear in an attempt to slow the aircraft〔Peterson, Iver. "Plane Passengers Prayed But Expected to Be Killed." _New York Times_ (Apr 7, 1979), 6.〕〔''The Post-Standard'' (Syracuse, New York), June 10, 1981, page 11〕 The plane suffered substantial structural damage, but made an emergency landing at Detroit Metropolitan Airport in Michigan at 10:31 p. m. EST without further trouble. No fatalities occurred among the 82 passengers and seven crew members. Eight passengers reported minor injuries related to high G forces.〔
