This book will revolutionize your understanding of aviation. Without unnecessary emotion, but with utmost honesty, the author recounts the most famous air disasters in Russia and around the world: what happened, why, and what could have been done differently.
Based on official reports from the Interstate Aviation Committee, black box recordings, and expert opinions, the author creates heart-stopping documentary reconstructions of events. This isn't just "evening reading"—it's a path to understanding how aviation learns from mistakes.
The book contains a detailed analysis of various incidents, including Kazan, Perm, Anapa-St. Petersburg, and other high-profile cases. The reader will see what happened in the cockpit in the final seconds and understand the logic behind the crew's actions.
This book contains no speculation or sensationalism—only facts, which are often far more shocking. The reader will learn what happened in the cockpit before the crash, why the captain chose the wrong approach pattern, and whether the plane could have been saved.
What you'll find in this book:
• Only reliable information: official data and facts.
• Answers to the most discussed issues in aviation: from technical errors to human factors.
• Suitable for both specialists and the general public.
Learn why even the most high-profile tragedies become lessons rather than repeating scenarios.
