520    On June 12, 1972, a powerful explosion rocked American 
       Airlines Flight 96 a mere five minutes after its takeoff 
       from Detroit. The explosion ripped a gaping hole in the 
       bottom of the aircraft and jammed the hydraulic controls. 
       Miraculously, despite the damage and ensuing chaos, the 
       pilots were able to land the plane safely. Less than two 
       years later, on March 3, 1974, a sudden, forceful blowout 
       tore through Turk Hava Yollari (THY) Flight 981 from Paris
       to London. THY Flight 981 was not as lucky as Flight 96; 
       it crashed in a forest in France, and none of the 346 
       people onboard survived. What caused the mysterious 
       explosions? How were they linked? Could they have been 
       prevented? The DC-10 Deception addresses these questions 
       and many more, offering a fascinating insiders' look at 
       two dramatic aviation disasters.
