Deadly Departure

The in-flight explosion of TWA Flight 800 on July 17, 1996, was one of the deadliest air disasters in American history, triggering one of longest and most confounding investigations. Even today, many people still believe there was a government conspiracy to hide the real cause of the crash. If anyone was covering up the truth about the blast that brought down the jumbo jet as it departed New York for Paris, it was Boeing. For years, the company kept from investigators, vital information about a dangerous design flaw at the heart of the airplane. It took intrepid investigators years to understand how a tiny spark in a massive fuel tank could lead to the deaths of 230 people. This insight into Boeing is significant given several accidents on new model Boeing airliners that would follow in the decades to come. Written by television correspondent and air safety specialist, Christine Negroni, Deadly Departure reveals the chaos behind the massive crash investigation exacerbated by political feuding among various government agencies. Deadly Departure reveals the surprising motivations of those promoting the theory that the true cause of the crash has been covered up. Readers learn about the victims and their families, the rescue and crisis workers, the investigators and scientists, the grifters and imposters. It is an impeccably researched, and provocative story of one of the great disasters of our time.
