Finally a major incident from the past!

Great show! They did an excellent job with the period recreations, considering their budget is probably very small. In a way, the show was more exciting because, in the absence of the microscopically detailed investigations, with aircraft reassembly, radar data, CVR, FDR and so forth that we have now, there was a heavy reliance on visual recreation of the accident.

With increasing commercial air travel came increasingly crowded skies. It should have been obvious that better air traffic control was needed; how sadly typical that it took a disastrous accident to force the issue.

Those planes were quite beautiful, too.

They really ought to do the New York City Air Disaster of 1960, another horrible mid-air collision.

I remember also seeing the episode about the Manchester United team crash in Germany, was it ?
