Airframe (2012)
“As they walked back across the vast parking lot, Casey was lost in thought.
“So,” Richman said, after a while. “Where are we?”
“Nowhere.”
No matter how she put the evidence together, that was the conclusion she came to. They had nothing solid so far. The pilot had said it was turbulence, but it wasn’t turbulence. A passenger gave a story consistent with slats deployment, but slats deployment couldn’t explain the terrible damage to the passengers. The stewardess said the captain fought the autop...ilot, which Trung said only an incompetent captain would do. Felix said the captain was superb.
Nowhere.
They were nowhere.

But Casey was not discouraged. She had come to this point many times before. It was no surprise the early evidence appeared to conflict. Because aircraft accidents were rarely caused by a single event or error.MoreLess
