Vuelopedia is a work in progress: it currently holds about 30% of the information we expect to have by the third quarter of 2027. Although we use only official, highly reliable sources, some aircraft data and history may still contain errors or inaccuracies. We work hard to clear every anomaly from the records using specialized verification tools.

What happened
On 11 September 2001, after the attacks with hijacked aircraft on the Twin Towers in New York and the Pentagon, the FAA ordered — for the first time in history — the complete closure of United States airspace (the SCATANA plan): all civil aviation was told to land immediately, and by midday the American sky was clear. Around 240 international flights bound for the United States were diverted to Canada — Operation Yellow Ribbon, with more than 30,000 passengers. Airspace reopened gradually from 13 September, by then under new security measures. Source: the FAA (United States).

What happened
On 16 April 2011, during the descent of a commercial passenger flight, the captain asked the cabin crew to secure the cabin and be seated because of forecast turbulence as the aircraft left flight level 240. About three minutes later, now at flight level 200, the aircraft flew through moderate to severe turbulence for several seconds. The flight attendants were on their feet completing the pre-landing tasks and could not keep their balance: one suffered a serious foot injury in the fall, while the rest were unhurt. The aircraft was undamaged and landed without incident at the destination airport. Source: the NTSB (United States).

Memories coming soon

The register of memories is not open on this aircraft yet. We are enabling it gradually, record by record, as we consolidate each aircraft's information.

Before opening it we check the aircraft identity — its registration, its serial number and its model — against the civil register of the authority that registered it, so that every memory belongs to the exact aircraft that lived it. When that work reaches this record, the register will open here.
