The Munich air disaster is one of the biggest tragedies of sport which occurred on 6 February 1958 when British European Airways flight 609, carrying Manchester United team (nicknamed “Busby Babes” ) along with the support staff and journalists, crashed on its third attempt to take off from a slush-covered runway at Munich-Riem Airport, West Germany.
