From those first tragic news reports to witnessing the raw pain of the friends and families seeking closure, still hoping against hope that the passengers and crew of Malaysian flight MH 370 would be found, the mystery of what happened to this plane and the souls aboard has baffled the world. Many books have sprung up to explain theories, share thoughts, point fingers, but MH 370: by Accident or Design by Peter Lee, an experienced military pilot and air traffic controller is a dissection of the events, the questions and the possibilities that are easy to understand. Mr. Lee sites his knowledge of flying, planes and working in the tower as he re-hashes events and separates facts from fancy, the probable from the improbable with hard evidence to back his thoughts. Does he answer every question known? No one can, but he takes the time line from take-off to discovery that the plane was missing and explains away many of the wrongful finger pointing going on while questioning other actions that were taken, or NOT taken that have hindered finding MH 370.Peter Lee's sound reasoning and well-written text helps to bring the “mystery” of flying, and of the inability of authorities to “easily” find MH 370. If you have wondered about the events, not understood canned press explanations, this should clear up much of what you’ve heard or read.
