On October 20, 1977, southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd boarded the rickety old airplane they’d chartered for their Street Survivors U.S. tour. But they never made it to their destination. The plane crashed into a swamp in Mississippi which killed 6 of the people on board. Why? What happened? And how did it affect the band in the following decades?

 

Special thanks to my friend Master Sergeant Sean Taft (USAF) for providing the voiceover for the ATC radio recreations.
