"Unheeded warning" Description:
The Open Library:
In this book, professional airline pilot Stephen A. Fredrick offers an inside account of Flight 4184 - an accurate, balanced, sensitive investigation of an air disaster over Indiana in the fall of 1994 that holds cautionary lessons for every reader. The aircraft involved in the crash of Flight 4184 was an ATR-72 turboprop. This model, designed and manufactured by a European consortium, had a history of performance problems in icing conditions - the same conditions that prevailed on the day of the Indiana crash. Despite this knowledge, aviation officials downplayed the ATR-72's troubles, even after the tragedy, but eventually grounded the aircraft. This action by the government had happened only one other time in U.S. aviation history. When the crash occurred, Stephen A. Fredrick, himself an American Eagle pilot, could not remain silent. Fredrick knew three of the four crew members on Flight 4184, and had once experienced a close call while piloting an ATR on an icy day. In this riveting account, he tells the technical and human story of Flight 4184 for the first time. To provide a complete and accurate picture, he incorporates information culled from aircraft performance experts; findings from authoritative agencies such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB); accident recovery reports; and poignant personal interviews with the victims' families and associates.
