    In this episode James and Grant have a guest host Adrian joining them to discuss an accident which was too similar to the previous episode on Air Fance 447. Some operators just didn't want to incorporate the lessons learnt from AF447, however we finish on another incident that had a positive outcome, indeed most operators had taken the lessons on board.

    James and Grant are your hosts along with Dave as our special guest host for part 2 of Air France flight 447. Investigators were very good at finding out what happened but with no witnesses and without the flight and cockpit recorders, there was no information about how the tragedy happened. Now with the flight data and cockpit voice recorders, we find out how the tradegy unfolded.

    James and Grant talk about the first time the flight data recorders were used in the United Kingdom, to help pinpoint the cause of an accident that had investigators initially quite baffled as to what had happened.

    Hi Folk, we are back with our third series called Insight. We are going to be taking a look at historical accidents and incidents that shaped the aviation industry and, how these events changed the course of the industry leading to what is in essence, a very regulated and safe form of mass transport that we experience today.
    In this episode we will be discussing the "whirl mode effect," something no one knew anything about during the development of the L188 Electra. The lessons learnt would be implemented into aircraft designs of the future. We then finish our discussion on some bird news.
