Black Box (A Channel Four Book)

The author presents a comprehensive investigation into the causes of modern air disasters and discusses methods used by air-crash detectives in order to determine if the accident was due to pilot error, weather, maintenance, or mechanical failure. From the early tragedies of the Comet and the DC10 to the modern-day horror of the Concorde catastrophe in Paris and the mysterious loss of an Air France Airbus over the Atlantic, Faith painstakingly recreates the accidents, explains what went wrong and discusses how they can be prevented from recurring. It's a gripping, fascinating and chilling book.

המשפט הראשון: Air-accident investigators, or 'tin-kickers', are a very special breed.
