Yet each situation is concluded without a single death thanks to the skill of the pilots and their crews whose bravery and resourcefulness have earned them well-deserved commendations. Using transcripts of actual flight deck conversations and communications with the ground to confer immediacy as well as authenticity, the author relates the tale of the Boeing 747 engulfed in a strange luminescence, whose four engines unaccountably flare then fail one after the other, causing the aircraft to glide towards a shark-infested ocean and the DC-10 whose cargo door blows out causing explosive decompression and a jammed rudder, leaving a stewardess clinging to the edge of a hole thousands of feet above earth. *** Quantity Available: 1.
