I read this book several years ago. I decided to post the book (or as I call it, put it up for adoption to a new home) but when I read the jacket, I decided I wanted to read it again before it left my house. I read it today whenever I had a spare minute. It was just as exciting as the first time I read it.
The authors capture every detail of the events in crisp, page turning detail. Even though this plane crashed in 1983, the story is as relevant today as it was then.

Great book.
I will miss it. :-(
