'All Four Engines Have Failed'
It was the nightmare that haunts every airline passenger. Flying at 37,000 feet over Java, on a dark night in June 1982, a British Airways Jumbo jet ran into serious trouble as first one, then another, and finally all four engines flamed, surged, shuddered and died. Flight 009 appeared to be doomed.rnOn the flight deck Captain Moody had no more idea what was happening than his passangers. He knew the cabin was rapidly filling up with billowing, choking black smoke. But he didn't know why.rnBetty Tootell was a passanger on Flight 009. In this remarkable book she recounts in graphic, and at times harrowing, detail what happened during the tense minutes that followed the engine failure, how the passangers and crew reacted as they started death in thhe face, and how the ordeal changed the course of many of their lives. It is a gripping and deeply moving story of survival-and the heroism of ordinary people.
