It was tragic, horrifying, shocking. But what caused the plane to explode is not a mystery... tragedy.
As I continued to work this story I kept wondering why nothing was done to address the risk of fuel tank explosions after the first jetliner blew apart in a similar manner in 1963.
I spoke with hundreds of people in the commercial aviation industry and the agency that regulates it, the FAA. DEADLY DEPARTURE details the reasons cited, the excuses given.
To this day, a well known fuel system design flaw exists on thousands of aircraft.
My book is a trip into the heart of the most massive and expensive crash investigation ever conducted and the only account of what caused the 25-year old jumbo jet to self-destruct.
DEADLY DEPARTURE includes documented scenarios from investigators and scientists and personal stories of the heroes, villains and victims of the disaster.
