Fascinating stories from the world of aviation will leave you awestruck. Our colleague have pulled no punches in their descriptions of the events that happened to them. This book has a global reach. There are AirCrew Stories from as far West as Seattle and as Far East as China. The inside story of a hijack attempt of a B747 in Africa and a rescue flight in the Balkans. An Engine Failure-on-Take-Off in France and running out of fuel in Scotland in the winter. The overall message which comes through is the indomitability of the human spirit. Even when things go wrong in the highly technical world of flight, the humans are there to save the day.
