One of the most horrific cockpit voice recordings in the history of aviation is that of Delta Air Lines flight 191 as the two sets of pilots and the flight engineer tried to get their rapidly descending aircraft to climb. The Lockheed L-1011 TriStar was flying from Fort Lauderdale to LA with a stop in Dallas on August 2nd, 1985. Ultimately, the pilots lost control of the aircraft on approach to LAX, and crashed around a mile away from the runway, killing 137 people and injuring 26.
