聯合航空232號班機空難
Also known as UA232, UAL232
United Airlines Flight 232 was a regularly scheduled United Airlines flight from Stapleton International Airport in Denver to O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, continuing to Philadelphia International Airport in Philadelphia, United States. On July 19, 1989, the McDonnell Douglas DC-10 serving the flight crash-landed at Sioux Gateway Airport in Sioux City, Iowa, after suffering a catastrophic failure of its tail-mounted engine due to an unnoticed manufacturing defect in the engine's fan disk, which resulted in the loss of all flight controls. Of the 296 passengers and crew on board, 112 died during the accident, while 184 people survived. Thirteen passengers were uninjured.

聯合航空232號班機（UA/UAL232）是联合航空一個定期自科羅拉多州丹佛飛往賓夕法尼亞州費城的班机。在1989年7月19日，一架飛行此班次的麥道DC-10-10三引擎廣體客機之二号引擎（位於垂直尾翼基部）因為扇葉材料的瑕疵，葉片斷裂且斷裂後射出的碎片损坏了机上為數共三套的液压系统，導致各翼面的控制功能失效。在无舵面工作的情况下，機組人員在原本坐在後艙中的一位非值勤飛行員教官丹尼斯·費齊（Dennis E. Fitch）之協力下，靠着控制僅存的2具引擎調整飛行方向，嘗試讓班機在愛荷華州蘇城紧急迫降，因此一般將這場空難被稱為“蘇城空難”。 雖然班機在迫降時還是不幸發生失控翻覆的情況，造成285名乘客及11名乘务人员中有112人罹難，但若不是機組人員的處理得當，原本傷亡應更加慘重。由於當時地面上的人員早就知道該班機可能會在迫降時失事，因此电视台摄影师早已在机场边等候记录飞机迫降的过程，使得它成為航空史上记录最完整的空难之一。機組員被迫使用遠高於標準的空速進場，降落时客机时速甚至一度超过航天飞机的降落时速。受損的DC-10在著陸前原本還保持大致正確的姿態與航向，但在觸地前的最後一刻卻向右偏滾，機組人員全力修正無效後右機翼觸地，在高速下的撞擊導致機身翻滾並解體。
