🎙️ A behind-the-scenes look at the unpredictable in flight.

What if everything didn't always go according to plan in the sky? This audiobook takes you on a journey through eight air stories as incredible as they are real, where chance, human error or exceptional circumstances have turned an ordinary flight into history.


From a heroic ditching on the Hudson, to a crash triggered by a crocodile in the cabin, to the stolen flight of an inexperienced ground worker, each chapter explores an accident that defies logic. These stories are told with pedagogy and intensity, to better understand the behind-the-scenes of modern aviation, its flaws, its heroes and its lessons.
