Cleared for Take-off
By the standards of road transport the airlines' record is good-yet, disasters and ' incidents' such as near-misses still hit the headlines. In air travel, how safe is
' safe enough'?
We join Captain Steve James and his passengers on a flight from Gatwick to Los Angeles. On the way, danger points are identified and we see research into air-traffic control, aircraft design, the role of the stewardess, the avoidance of mid-air collisions, electronic flight decks, the problem of whirlwind vortices that can topple an aircraft and a new fuel additive that may virtually eliminate the instant conflagrations that (as at Tenerife) kill hundreds, but which would also increase the cost of flying.
