The Crash of the Concorde
Library Binding
(Rosen Central Jan. 1, 2003)
On July 25, 2000, the once glittering dream of commercial supersonic travel seemed to come to a fiery end as Air France Concorde Flight 4590 crashed two minutes after takeoff from Charles de Gaulle Airport outside of Paris. The planes that once carried millionaires and moguls were grounded and many people believed they would never fly again. With the help of powerful eyewitness testimony and a minute-by-minute cockpit voice recorder transcript of the flight crew's communication with air traffic control, this is the story of the birth, death, and rebirth of the Concorde.
