Description

Boarding an airplane strikes at least a small sense of fear into most people. Even though we all have heard that the odds of being struck by lightning are greater than the odds of perishing in a plane crash, it still doesn't feel that way. Airplane crashes might be rare, but they do happen, and they’re usually fatal. David Soucie insists that most of these deaths could be prevented. He’s worked as a pilot, a mechanic, an FAA inspector, and an aviation executive. He’s seen death up close and personal - deaths of colleagues and friends that might have been prevented if he had approved certain safety measures in the aircrafts they were handling. His years of experience have led Dave to become an impassioned consultant on the topic of airline safety. This includes not only advising the Obama administration, but also taking a leading role in the congressionally funded NextGen interdepartmental initiative in regards to both the department of transportation and the departments of defense, homeland security, FBI, CIA, and others. Find out the truth about airplane safety and discover what the future holds for air travel.

Outstanding and very interesting

I began to listen to this book because I have an interest in aviation, but it was so much more. This is a great biography. What an amazing look behind the scenes at the FAA. Fascinating and very well written. Highly recommended.

Not as Expected

Although this was a good book, it was less about why planes crash, and more a biography of the author. It was interesting to read about the challenges the author experienced in his career and personal life, but I was expecting more of a case-study approach to incidents.
