We’re releasing episodes from our mini failure library while we’re on production hiatus.

This week’s Mini Failure is about the Gimli Glider. Units are hard, but important. What was thought to be a full refuel was only 45% of the required fuel load, leading to an emergency landing at former RCAF Station Gimli.

Original Air Date: December 12, 2021
