Air Disaster 3: Terror In The Sky
The modern jet age is extraordinarily safe. But that safety continues to be tested – and, occasionally, found wanting – by pilot error, freak weather conditions, poor maintenance and sheer bad luck. As ever, the lessons learned are painful. From the passengers sucked to their deaths from a gaping hole in a United Airlines Boeing 747 over Hawaii, to the astonishing escape of most of those aboard the Airbus which crashed into a forest at Mulhouse, to the insane decision of an Aeroflot captain to allow his young children to ‘fly’ his laden passenger jet over the Siberian wastelands, award-winning aviator writer Macarthur Job looks at what went wrong, and how it can be prevented from happening again.
With photographs, and detailed illustrations by aviation artist Matthew Tesch, 'Air Disaster 3: Terror In The Sky' is a classic of its genre.
Look out for two other books in Macarthur Job's Air Disaster series: Air Disaster 1: The Propeller Era Air Disaster 2: The Jet Age
