Singapore Airlines Flight 006 was a scheduled Singapore Airlines passenger flight from Singapore Changi Airport to Los Angeles International Airport via Chiang Kai-shek International Airport (now Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport) in Taipei, Taiwan. On the 31st October 2000, the Boeing 747-412 operating the flight attempted to take off from the wrong runway leading to a very serious accident. In this video I will explain what caused this fatal mistake and what we have learned from it.
