I always been fascinated by plane crashes, I had seen all the Air Crash Investigation (and Mayday) clips on plane incidents on YouTube.I decided I needed to go back to school...and train to become an air plane mechanic (an AP). If you can't read this book and enjoy it....then becoming a mechanic is not up your alley.But if you find the subject matter fascinating, and you end up going through 4 pens jotting notes, then perhaps becoming a mechanic is what you are destined for. This includes trying to talk to co-workers about how a 737 hull can fail, and still land safely, like what happened to South West April 2011, and trying to compare this incident to Aloha 243 on April 28,1988. Then comparing these two planes to the British Comet plane crashes.Now keep in mind one person who gave this book 4 stars, obviously works (ed) for the NTSB or FAA did criticize the authors description of how TWA Flight 800 came apart, but went on to say he thought that the author did and overall good job.The book even covers a brief, but exciting chapter on the perfection and testing of the ejection seat(and the passenger seat in commercial flight), the man who volunteered to be a human test dummy, and Murphy s law.You will never look at a plane in the sky the same way again, complain on how uncomfortable the seats are in coach, or think about ones career possibility's in the aviation world. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ How Planes Crash *by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2008* As an airline pilot and safety researcher, I ordered "Beyond the Black Box" as soon as it became available. This book is different from most books about aircraft accidents in that it focuses on the actual dynamics and mechanical processes of aircraft accidents rather than Human Factors: I found Dr. Bibel's book to be illuminating from a physical sciences viewpoint. The book uses very basic science and math principles (as well as simple experiments suitable for home or classroom use) to explain important points about these accidents.Some of these accidents are quite well known, even outside of the industry (United 232), while most have been forgotten by everyone other than those directly involved in aviation safety and engineering (the Comet decompression accidents, the British Midland 737 accident at Kegworth, England, etc.), but all are excellent examples of different accident modes. I have studied numerous accidents over the years, and have taught several aviation safety courses, and I think this book is the best introduction to the physical sciences and engineering involved in aviation accidents available to the public. It is written with both expert professional and interested observer in mind, and is easily comprehended; all math and science concepts are thoroughly explained, as are higher order concepts like metal fatigue and fracture analysis.I recently had the privilege of meeting Dr. Bibel and hearing him speak on aircraft accidents. He was very gracious and approachable, and I enjoyed both his presentation and his book greatly. This book is not written from a pilot's perspective, and as such contains some generalizations about flying procedures and techniques, but as an accessible scientific introduction to the science and dynamics of airplane accidents, this is an enjoyable and engaging book, and I recommend it without reservation. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/2740690-beyond-the-black-box-the-forensics-of-airplane-crashes](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/2740690-beyond-the-black-box-the-forensics-of-airplane-crashes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
