Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 3rd Edition. Paperback. Air Accident Investigation. Highlighting to a few pages. In this post-9/11 new edition, former areospace engineer David Owen sheds fresh light on aviation accidents and their causes. He examines how each major accident was affected by crucial incidents - from severe weather conditions to pilot error, metal fatigue and inadequate aircraft maintenance. Each major cause of aviation disaster is illustrated by means of crucial incidents, some of which initially puzzled investigators. Many of the incidents described in detail were highly publicised by the meadia at he time. The author explains the painstaking reconstruction of events that brought about a disaster and how clues are found that help reveal what actually happened. Owen concludes with an examination of the present-day state of aviation safety along with the challenges facing the future of a rapidly expanding industry. This includes details of the investigation into the Concorde crash at Paris in 2000, and major changes in the way aviation safety is now approached in the wake of 9/11, with the growing threat of international terroism. Illustrated. 208 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
