Air Historian
If you knew that one person would be killed on your flight, would you still get on that plane? Unbeknownst to anyone, those were the odds facing the passengers of Southwest 1380 when they boarded the aircraft in spring of 2018. A freak accident would occur that fateful day, tragically taking the life of a beloved person. And if things had happened slightly differently, everyone else would have died too. But how did this occur in the modern era, especially on a plane that belonged to America's safest airline? Caroline and Trevor answer all these questions on today's episode.
