This review is from: The Spark That Killed 230 People!: The Scary Details of the NTSB's Final Report of the Crash of TWA Flight 800: How Safe is Flying? (Paperback)
As a Aeronautical Science Major, this book gives factual insight into the downing of TWA800 and the ramifications of being complacent when addressing the issue of aging aircraft, esp. wiring. When the 747 was built (this aircraft was one of the first ten off of the assembly line in 1969-70), nobody thought it would still be flying in 1996 at the time of the accident. It was the beginning of the Jet Age in the true sense of the word and it never dawned on anyone that wiring, which was ultimately the root cause of this accident, would be an issue. If you are a aviation techie, read this book - you won't be disappointed!
