  After investigating a range of accidents over the last 30 years, the author raises serious questions about air safety, suggesting that passenger aircraft staff and the machines they fly are less reliable than is usually assumed. Patrick Forman is the former air correspondent for The Sunday Times and is now a member of the Air Safety Group. In this book he argues that government regulators, airlines and manufacturers have deliberately concealed the dangers of air travel and he argues that public pressure is the only chance of making progress towards higher safety standards in the air industry.
