Head in the Sand, Death in the Clouds by John A. Shewmaker Do Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description From the author of Murder in a 172 and Flying under the Weather comes a fact-based exposé of the errors of the National Transportation Safety Board in investigating aviation accidents. You hear all about the investigations for the well-publicized plane crashes. The NTSB addresses these cases with aplomb, delving deep into the mechanical issues and even bringing in non-NTSB investigators to cover themselves under the eye of Congress. But what about general aviation-the realm of the highest number of deaths? Flight physician John A. Shewmaker argues in Head in the Sand, Death in the Clouds that the NTSB fails to thoroughly and effectively assess pilot risks, a primary factor in general aviation accidents. Shewmaker uses evidence directly from NTSB narratives to clearly show the organization's failings. In this book, Shewmaker scrutinizes the accuracy of the NSTB's communication to the public, proposes adaptable and cost-efficient changes to the investigation system, andpaints a picture of a future in which proper protocols get to the bottom of problems in the aircraft platform. Shewmaker's book will appeal to aviation buffs, those watchful of government mismanagement, and even design professionals or those who enjoy solving serious problem laid bare by hard facts.
