Air India Flight 182, a commercial passenger plane, crashed on June 23, 1985, while en route from Toronto to Delhi. It disappeared from radar over Ireland, resulting in the deaths of all 329 passengers and crew members. The Irish Navy quickly responded to the disaster, recovering bodies from the ocean, an event that deeply impacted those involved. Discussions on the Indo Daily podcast delve into the terror attack's background and its long-lasting effects as they reflect on 40 years of unanswered questions surrounding the incident.
"I put binoculars to my head and all I could see was the smoke. As we got closer, the first thing we saw then was the wheels of the aircraft, and then the bodies started coming up," one of the Navy team said.
Today, on the Indo Daily, Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Terry Milewski and Saoirse Hanley, exploring the aftermath and the impact of that tragic day, and how it shaped their lives.
