Fly By Wire: The Geese, The Glide, The 'Miracle' on the Hudson
William Langewiesche
From the testing laboratories where engineers struggle to build a jet engine that can resist bird attacks, through the creation of the A320 in France, to the political and social forces that have sought to minimize the impact of revolutionary fly-by-wire technology, this work lets us question our assumptions about human beings in modern aviation.
