Great story. Very informative. I’m now down with the difference between flaps and slats.
Incredible

I really enjoyed this book and couldn’t put it down. Even though it took place in the ‘90’s, I could still see it happening today.
Very interesting read

Enjoyed how the plot moved very quickly and provided lot of information. A little scary for what is going on with the airline industry today. Well worth the read
A very easy read

The story moves quickly. It’s even interesting when it talks about technical things. Especially the making of news segments.

An entertaining story about what can happen after an airline disaster. Chricten goes after the media and the hierarchy in the corporate world pretty harshly. He paints a very believable story.

As a retired major airline captain the book held my interest and showed accurate aircraft terms. Two things were not accurate. Leading edge slats and also flaps and landing gear have speed limits and could not be deployed at cruise speed without serious damage. The cause of the DC10 crash in Chicago was much more complicated than described and involved a damaged retracted slat which wasn’t mentioned which was strange since the story line was built around a defective slat system. Also not mentioned is that flaps and slats work together usually with the same handle.
Should be asleep....

One of those books you just couldn't put down. There is technical aircraft jargon but it's easily explained and easy to skip over. Highly recommended read
