It was thirty-eight years ago today that the crew of TWA 841 experienced a near-fatal accident.
Aviation enthusiasts, current and retired pilots and accident investigators, and fans of nonfiction narratives can now decide for themselves whether or not the official probable cause is correct or not. There is also strong evidence to suggest that the failures that led to the TWA 841 upset may have also played a roll in a string of rollover accidents in the 1990s, including United Flight 585 and USAir Flight 427.
The captain of TWA 841, Hoot Gibson, has since passed away. He never got the chance to read the manuscript that would convince many that the NTSB got it wrong. Scott and Gary continue to deny any crew action that might have led to the upset. Today, on this 38th anniversary of TWA 841, I’m pleased to say that the book Scapegoat is currently the number three eBook in its category. The word is spreading. Hopefully, the crew of TWA 841 will be cleared of any wrongdoing, if not by the NTSB, then at least in public opinion.
United Flight 585 and USAir Flight 427 were 737’s on approach not a 727 at cruise. Nice try.
Jimmy,
Perhaps you should read the book before you start repeating unproven claims from the past. This book dispels both of your comments. Nice try.
