Flight 593

The Mystery of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370

Malaysia Airlines flight 370 departed from Kuala Lumpur airport shortly after midnight, full of passengers flying to Beijing. Half an hour later, the greatest mystery in aviation history had begun. Though most of us will board an aircraft at some point in our lives, we know little about how they work and the procedures surrounding their operation. It is that mystery that makes the loss of MH370 so terrifying. Follow along step-by-step as Wrigley recreates the flight and its disappearance. Review the many varied theories as to how it could have happened — up to and including alien abduction. The Mystery of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 also introduces a variety of related crashes and incidents, allowing readers to draw their own conclusions.

Accuracy and Calibration Failures in Science and Engineering

Safeguard your operational integrity and data reliability with this essential technical and investigative guide, which critically examines and provides actionable frameworks to combat the dangerously undercommunicated risks of calibration drift and systemic measurement failures across all industries. As industries grow more complex and digitized, the demand for precision and reproducibility has escalated, placing extraordinary reliance on sensors, analytical instruments, and automated data systems. This evolution has exposed systemic vulnerabilities such as outdated calibration protocols, unvalidated assumptions, and fragmented oversight across lifecycle stages. This book is a technical and investigative work that critically examines the overlooked, misunderstood, and dangerously undercommunicated issues of calibration drift, traceability loss, and systemic measurement failures across science, engineering, and industry. The book provides a structured, in-depth exploration of how calibration standards shift without timely notification and the cascading consequences this can have on data reliability, regulatory compliance, safety, and decision-making. The content spans from foundational concepts in calibration and metrology to detailed technical analyses of failure modes in sensors, instruments, and analytical systems. The book emphasizes the interconnectedness of human factors, systemic inertia, and institutional resistance to change, delivering actionable frameworks for building resilience, including updated ISO standards, failure mode and effects analysis, checklists, dashboards, and protocols.
