- WalterBright 5y ago"Aviation Disasters" did a much better episode on it than Frontline.
- buildsjets 5y agoThe Frontline episode on PBS is 50% teary-eyed emotional testimonials from the victim’s families, interspersed with 25% stock footage and 25% poorly summarized, and in many cases technically incorrect explanation. The Smithsonian Channel Episode “Ten Steps to Disaster” is far more technically accurate, and also deep dives the technical, business, and regulatory decisions that lead to the disaster. https://www.smithsonianchannel.com/video/series/ten-steps-to-disaster/73562 https://www.smithsonianchannel.com/video/series/ten-steps-to...
- WalterBright 5y agoThanks for the reference. I'll look at it later. I was pretty disillusioned by Frontline. I always knew they were biased, but thought they made an honest attempt to present the facts. No more.
- headco 5y agoJohn Chidgey has an excellent episode of Causality covering the technicals in great detail. https://engineered.network/causality/episode-33-737-max/ https://engineered.network/causality/episode-33-737-max/
