Grounded: How to Solve the Aviation Crisis

$19.99

Responding to the question, what does the future look like for aviation?, the authors dig into every aspect of the airline industry. In a highly readable, accessible to all book, they look at the financial fundamentals of aviation, how closely it is tied to the federal government, whether automation has gone too far, how to make the traveling public feel genuinely safe, how the industry can adapt to a fast changing, post-pandemic world and how the 737 MAX fiasco happened and could easily happen again on another state of the art aircraft.

With hundreds of interviews from across government and the industry Malmquist and Rapoport put together a unique set of insights into how the airlines got into this crisis point and how they can map a path out of it. Of interest to anyone who flies or has a fear of flying, this provocative and authoritative book challenges what you thought you knew and provides a unique perspective on the future.
