Air Crashes: What Went Wrong, Why, and What Can be Done About it (Thomasson-Grant Aviation Library) - Tapa dura

What went wrong, why, and what can be done about it -- this book examines the aviation accident scene. While no form of transportation is risk-free, Collins finds there are more opportunities to manage risks in aviation than in any other area. A major contribution to the understanding of why aeroplanes crash, to help pilots to learn from past mistakes and avoid repeating them. Wind shear, collisions, pilot error and more are explored through eyewitness accounts, cockpit transcripts and NTSB reports.
