In 1983, Air Canada Flight 143 became one of aviation’s most unbelievable survival stories. Mid-flight, the Boeing 767 ran out of fuel at 41,000 feet due to a metric conversion error, leaving the aircraft completely powerless. With both engines dead and no instruments, Captain Robert Pearson and First Officer Maurice Quintal turned the jet into a massive glider, guiding it toward an abandoned airstrip at Gimli, Manitoba.
