Air
Disaster 1 looks at the major aviation disasters of the jet age
covering 1952 to 1977, from the early Comet, 707, Caravelle and
Trident days through to the era of the widebody long range jetliner.
Each chapter on each accident is a highly involved detective story
in itself, one the reader lives through as if you were intimately
involved with the outcome.
Air Disaster
1 begins with the incredible story of the Comet mysteries where
aeronautical engineers learnt that metal structures and pressurisation
were indeed a new art, and follows on to investigate the TriStar
which descended into the Everglades at night while its crew fumbled
about on the cockpit floor, the early problems with the DC-10's
cargo door, and the horrific 747 collision at Tenerife.
Some
others may come as a surprise - the fate that awaited the Caravelle
whose crew used its engines to clear fog from the runway for takeoff,
and the DC-9 caught in the wake turbulence of a DC-10.
Each
of the 18 accidents has been carefully selected to present a different
facet of the problems facing the jet age, together with the answers
that were found to them - different, rarely straightforward and
uncovered only as a result of lengthy, dedicated, and painstaking
investigation. |
