So on Nat Geo they have this series called air crash investigation.

I noticed one 2 returning things after seeing a dozen or episodes.

Everytime when things go wrong which usually are:
Suddenly stuff stops working. Like engines or steering stuff or anything else.
Or smoke appearing out of nowhere or anything else really that doesnt make the plane crash right away but sure looks like a big problem they are required to do 2 things:

Get the fucking HUGE plane manual and search up the problem and follow the steps. 9 out of 10 times before the even finish it the plane by then met the ground. And the other thing is "climb to a safe altitude" Yup, try to get 10km in the air so you have time before you crash.

Not once is the first reaction "ok lets get this plane on the ground as soon as fucking possible". I understand they can not land just anywhere and above the ocean that for sure isnt an option but so many times the just keep on flying thinking they can solve the problem through a manual. So after 45 minutes that smoke turned into a big fire and then its too late.
