Welcome to Litsy!

This book is an excellent introduction to the field of air crash investigation. I find learning about how accidents are investigated assures me that if an accident does happen, investigators will find out why it did and recommend how a similar one can be prevented in future. #nuyear #theaircrashbureau

I‘m thinking, Ron and Harry would have no trouble getting a job at #theaircrashbureau considering all the crashing of flying objects they cause 🚙

#NuYear #TheAircrashBureau “On October 12, 1972, a plane carrying a team of young rugby players crashed into the remote, snow-peaked Andes. Out of the forty-five original passengers and crew, only sixteen made it off the mountain alive. For ten excruciating weeks they suffered deprivations beyond imagining.And to survive, they were forced to do what would have once been unthinkable ...” I saw this in the cinema when I was 16. Incredible story

I‘m terrified of flying, so I think I love reading about plane crashes. It reinforces my fears. 😁 I loved this book and love this show on the Smithsonian Channel. #nuyear #theaircrashbureau

One of my favorite Palahniuk books! 🤗

I have not read this but have seen the trailer of the film, so I know there‘s a plane crash in it. 😄
After a private plane crashes, two strangers find themselves stranded in the remote wilderness during winter, and have to rely on each other for chances of survival.

Won‘t be in til late tonight so pic pinched off Amazon! Have this at home - a quick, easy thriller. Not brilliant, not awful.

#NuYear #day11 #TheAircrashBureau This is the first book that came to mind for this prompt! Eleven people board a private jet on a foggy night in Martha‘s Vineyard, 16mins later, the only survivors are painter Scott Burroughs & the 4yrold son of a very wealthy media tycoon. Questions arise of whether it was a deliberate act or just pilot error, but as Scott becomes closer to the little boy, people start questioning his motives.

This is a remarkable true story of courage in the face of incredible hardship and horror that occurred as a result of a plane crash during World War II. And Lauren Hillenbrand knows how to tell the story! An inspiration. #nuyear #theaircrashbureau

This is the fascinating true story of 3 Americans forced to acclimate to life with the natives of New Guinea after surviving a plane crash on the remote island in 1945, a time when most of the island was still unchartered. Amazing to read about the friendships formed between the survivors and the tribespeople of this island, especially considering hardly anything was known about the tribes at the time.
