Unfriendly Skies Rodney Stich

Featured Replies

I have just read some from "Unfriendly Skies" by Rodney Stich and found it as horrendous reading, is all of this true? First of all i've got the impression that Stich is pretty harsh against United Airlines and FAA, also i discovered some factuals errors describing a DC9 as an 737 and a DC8 as a DC9 in some disasters. Its also worth mentioning the description of crash scenes as a horrorshow with some speculative elements. Also he insinuates that the infamous 727 PSA crash in San Diego was partly due to the crews partying the night before the flight and describing a drinking culture in several airline companies.Here is the very unpleasant reading:http://www.druggingamerica.com/EUnfriendly_Skies_part.pdf
