On August 21, 2000, the Kingdom of Bahrain experienced a devastating tragedy: the crash of Gulf Air Flight 072 into the Arabian Gulf. The aircraft, arriving from Cairo, resulted in the loss of 143 lives, including passengers and crew. Preliminary investigations revealed a confluence of factors contributing to the accident, including potential human error and aircraft systems issues. Specifically, reports indicated the pilot may have experienced spatial disorientation during the landing approach, leading to loss of control. This incident underscored the critical importance of rigorous crew training. The recovery operation for the aircraft wreckage and victims’ remains was complex and challenging due to the water depth and strong currents.
