Take to the Sky Episode 058: Swissair Flight 111

By the time Swissair Flight 111 reached its cruising altitude in
the evening hours of September 2, 1998, there was no reason to
expect anything other than a safe flight. Less than an hour after
takeoff, a strange smell in the cockpit indicated something was
wrong- and it would take more than four years before the world
would know exactly what that was. In this week's episode of Take
to the Sky: the Air Disaster Podcast, Stephanie walks us through
what happened and what we learned from a disaster whose legacy
shaped aviation as we know it today.
