Overview

Describes and explains how and why the key aviation incidents happened--some 85 case in all. This large print edition is for the benefit of readers going right through the printed book studying the whys and hows in detail. A good present for those who remember the headlines at the time and always wondered what really happened. Part 1 has Chapters 1-7, and Part 2 has Chapters 8-18. Updates and the glossary (which we had to omit for lack of space) will be in Part 3.

Air Crashes and Miracle Landings is a great resource for every pilot who wants a clear summary of the whats, hows, and whys behind the key aviation accidents.This book should be part of Human Factors and Crew Resource Management training. Richard de Crespigny, Captain of QF32 Mr Bartlett has taken over the mantle of the late, great MacArthur Job, as an aviation writer of undoubted excellence. His book covers many, many accidents, both well known and obscure, in just the right amount of detail to remain fascinating. Andy, Professional Reviewer, Amazon U.K. Amazing. I have read lots of books and this is one of the best I have come across for a long time. Rob Armstrong, Amazon U.K. This is most fascinating reading for everyone who has an interest in aviation -- the true stories of how and why airplanes crashed and how miracle landings were accomplished by expert pilots, some of whom are glider pilots who flew heavy jetliners down with engines out (from bird strikes or out of fuel) to safe landings! Alan M, Amazon U.S.
