Caught in a severe thunderstorm from Belize to New Orleans, TACA Flight 110 was in trouble. Just 20 miles from the airport the engines quit, turning the Boeing 737 into a multi-ton glider.

With no thrust and dropping 1,500 feet a minute, the crew needed a place to land - and fast. As Captain Dardano prepared to land in the canal, a new option appeared in the form of a narrow levee.

It was one of the most remarkable landings in the history of commercial aviation.
