There have been a spate of books recently on airline disasters, missing airplanes and other assorted aviation mysteries. Destination Disaster is the grand dame of them all. Written nearly 50 years ago, Destination Disaster tells the story of the Turkish Airlines crash just outside Paris in 1974 and the politics and business practices of why it happened, how it might have been prevented, and how it changed the airline/aviation industry.
