Black Box

"The smash-hit bestseller about the world’s worst air crashes – and why they happened. A state-of-the-art Airbus simply vanishes somewhere over the Atlantic... A Concorde goes down in a fireball seconds after take-off... 583 people die when two 747s collide on a fog-bound runway... A rogue passenger shoots his boss – and then the pilots – at 30,000ft over the USA, killing everyone aboard... A tired and confused crew fly their jet straight into a mountain... A flock of swans at 6,000ft brings down a United Airlines flight over New Jersey... In the air, disaster strikes in many ways and at unexpected moments – and when it does there is often no escape. Black Box is a masterful re-telling of the worst disasters in aviation history."--Publisher description.
