Peter Mahon recounts the inquiry he led into the 1979 crash of an Air New Zealand sightseeing flight on Mount Erebus in Antarctica. Drawing on the evidence presented to the Royal Commission, he explains how he examined the aircraft's navigation, the information available to the crew and the sequence of decisions surrounding the flight. His account takes readers through the investigation and the reasoning behind findings that challenged the initial emphasis on pilot error. It also describes the disputes and reactions that followed. Combining the detail of an aviation investigation with a personal account of the inquiry, the book examines a tragedy that deeply affected New Zealand.
