The Plane That Wasn't There

Why We Haven't Found MH370

De: Jeff Wise

Narrado por: Jeff Wise

The definitive investigation into the greatest aviation mystery in history, with a startling hypothesis about who took the plane, where they took it, and how. On March 8, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared. A year later, still no trace of the plane - or the 239 people onboard - has been found. But why? In The Plane That Wasn't There, science journalist and CNN aviation analyst Jeff Wise sweeps aside the conspiracy theories and misconceptions and lays out, with clear concision, just what we know about the plane's fate - and what we don't. The deeper into the technical details one delves, Wise reports, the stranger the case seems. He proposes that in order to make sense of the data we have, a radical new hypothesis ought to be considered - one that he lays out in gripping detail, complete with modus operandi, flight path, possible perpetrators, and a startling destination. Jeff Wise is a science journalist specializing in aviation and psychology. A licensed pilot of gliders and light airplanes, he has also written for New York, The New York Times, Time, Businessweek, Esquire, Details, and many others. His 2011 Popular Mechanics story on the fate of Air France 447 was named one of the Top 10 Longreads of 2011. His last book was Extreme Fear: The Science of Your Mind in Danger. A native of Massachusetts, he lives in New York City with his wife and two sons.

very informative

It's interesting to hear this audible on a subject I was curious about. thank you!

good book

technical enough to be satisfying for an EE but some homework is called for if you want to fallow the tech-math

A very believable explanation.

It was well written and presented but most importantly it was so believable. I feel that anyone who selects This book: The Plane That Wasn’t There Will experience a new set of knowledge and a better way of thinking. Please, enjoy!

No need to believe to enjoy

Whether you’re into conspiracy theories or not. This book is a lot of fun in terms of learning how aircraft work in the modern era. And how an lost aircraft search is conducted and is well worth the read

Thank you!

This was very interesting, full of information, yet still captivating. I would love to hear a more recent update to follow this story.

Favorite book

I love this book so much!! Read it 5 times and still enjoy it everytime!

The Russian Connection

I certainly was surprised where we ended with the airplane. I guess I'm one of the few people who wait for answers long after 24 hours news has found something more fascinating. I hate flying and car or cruise ship can get me around the world just fine. But if I have to fly I want to know if the NTSB has the why and FAA isn't sitting around waiting with its tombstone mentality.
If the planning took time Putin knew US would whip out the sanction card, then his boomerang line would fly and we see another plane crash. I think the boomerang kept flying. Our elections could have been what the aim was yet I still think it's flying. When Putin enters this it is to me the most frightening thought. Olympic committee might want to watch their back.

Enlightening

I remember being on the edge of my seat from the minute this story began. Never stayed so glued to news coverage. This story was enlightening, informative, well organized and narrated. Brought me back and reignited my interest in this incredible mystery

Incredible

Almost forgot about this missing plane. This story is no longer in the forefront of most people's minds.
I appreciate the succinct theories of what could have happened and why.
Totally incredible.
And scary.
