Controlled Impact Demonstration 1984 NASA FAA CID Intentional Plane Crash Test Video

This short NASA film describes the Controlled Impact Demonstration test, where NASA tested anti-misting safety measures on a remote controlled Boeing-720 aircraft. The anti-misting devices were supposed to make the use of aircraft fuel safer for passengers aboard commercial aircraft, but the FAA abandoned the project after this test. As a result of the test, NASA recommended that the FAA adopt rules putting heads-up displays and microwave landing systems for commercial passenger aircraft.
