Black Box - Season 3

image

Millions of people travel by air every year with no problem. For many of us, however, the horror of crashing stops us taking to the skies at all.

Yet flying has never been safer, thanks to a dedicated band of air-crash detectives who investigate every accident. This documentary travels with the investigators as they piece together the truth revealed by the Black Box – the shock-proof, fire-proof electronic recorder installed in every plane. There is footage of investigations and computerised reconstructions which help to explain the reasons for crashes, along with dramatic accounts from both pilots and passengers who have survived them.
