The hypersonic airliner Fireflash 3 takes off from London International Airport as per usual, but later sends out a mayday, reporting losing height rapidly and reporting their position as TS757/AR436. London Airport sends out the Air Sea Rescue squad who fail to find any trace of the craft at its last reported position. The crash makes headlines, and the Air Ministry has the entire Fireflash fleet grounded until further notice. Meanwhile in Thunderbird 5, Alan Tracy realizes that Fireflash 3's last reported position was incorrect, more than 50 miles out, explaining the inability to

  • The hypersonic airliner Fireflash 3 takes off from London International Airport as per usual, but later sends out a mayday, reporting losing height rapidly and reporting their position as TS757/AR436. London Airport sends out the Air Sea Rescue squad who fail to find any trace of the craft at its last reported position. The crash makes headlines, and the Air Ministry has the entire Fireflash fleet grounded until further notice. Meanwhile in Thunderbird 5, Alan Tracy realizes that Fireflash 3's last reported position was incorrect, more than 50 miles out, explaining the inability to locate the downed craft. Patterson, a technician of the Fireflash division, tests the Fireflash craft, but everything checks out, so a test flight is launched the next day. All goes well, until the craft approaches the last position reported by Fireflash 3. The EPU (Elevator Power Unit) reads zero despite still being 150,000 ft. in the sky, and all the instruments start going haywire. Fireflash then sends out a distress call to London Airport, reporting mechanical problems, and eventually losing all contact once it reaches the exact position where Fireflash 3 disappeared. The pilots are then unable to control the craft as it dives towards the Atlantic, smashing into the water, but still in one piece. The pilots desperately try to escape the flight deck, but the escape door jams, leaving them trapped inside as Fireflash sinks beneath the surface of the water. An unidentified man (who parachuted from the undercarriage of the Fireflash prior to it sinking,) is then picked up by an EJ2 Jet; it was sabotage.
