1.Aircraft Accident Analysis: Final ReportsAircraft Accident Analysis: Final Reports
from McGraw-Hill Professional

I really enjoyed reading this detailed account of aviation mishaps. As a former pilot, I am fascinated with the causes of aircraft accidents.

3.The Black Box: All-New Cockpit Voice Recorder Accounts Of In-flight AccidentsThe Black Box: All-New Cockpit Voice Recorder Accounts Of In-flight Accidents
from Harper Paperbacks
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
If you spent any time reviewing CVRs, then there is nothing new in this book. Although there are several inaccuracies/mistakes, the worst part of the book is that it gives almost zero insight into what happened in each case. A short one page write-up at the end of each CVR would really help this... more info

4.Air Disaster (Vol. 4: The Propeller Era)Air Disaster (Vol. 4: The Propeller Era)
from Australian Aviation

Customer Review:
I purchased this book because my uncle, Joseph J. Cieslak, was one of the 28 victims of the November 17, 1955, crash in Riverton, WA, described in Chapter 6. Because of this crash, I know my uncle only from photos and personal possessions. I felt compelled to know exactly what happened, and the... more info

from Australian Aviation

Customer Review:
We have all been asked, at one point or another, what book we would bring to a deserted tropical island if marooned there for life. While I will not go so far as to suggest Air Disaster vol 2 should be that book, I will say it is one of the finest books on the subject I have ever read, and I have... more info

6.Air Disaster (Vol. 1)Air Disaster (Vol. 1)
from Aerospace Publications

Customer Review:
There are many ways to test a new invention or a modification but sometimes things are missed or not even thought of until something fails. In the case of airplanes, a failure often times results in loss of life. Air Disaster Volume 1 follows the lessons learned from various jet airplane crashes.... more info

7.Heart of the Storm: My Adventures as a Helicopter Rescue Pilot and CommanderHeart of the Storm: My Adventures as a Helicopter Rescue Pilot and Commander
from Wiley
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
This book was better written and more interesting than Jack Brehm's book That Others May Live.
One note: While the town in Georgia is named Warner Robins, the base is named Robins AFB (not Warner Robins AFB). I lived there from 1979 to 1984, while my father was serving there with the USAF 5CCG.... more info

8.Air Disaster (Vol. 3)Air Disaster (Vol. 3)
from Australian Aviation

Customer Review:
I must confess I found volume 3 of this series to be something of a letdown. The second volume had it all: text, pictures, balance. This one focused almost exclusively on the mechanics of each accident, and read like an aerial police report at times. One almost felt like an FAA official at his desk,... more info

9.Aviation Disasters: The World s Major Civil Airliner Crashes Since 1950Aviation Disasters: The World's Major Civil Airliner Crashes Since 1950
from The History Press

Customer Review:
David Gero has covered many of the 1000's of Air Incdents in this book.
I would have liked to have seen more photos or Drawings relating to individual incidents.
The more recents incidents where much information is available today, I thought, were somewhat vague, felt they could have been... more info

10.United States Air Force Search and Rescue Survival Training: Af Regulation 64-4United States Air Force Search and Rescue Survival Training: Af Regulation 64-4
from MetroBooks (NY)

Customer Review:
As a general rule I believe there is usually "something" that can be taken from most books and videos on this subject. It may only be a better demonstration or a twist on an old technique. This text covers many subjects however it sacrifices some depth in doing so (ie. Fire by bow and drill is... more info
