How did the most modern passenger plane of its day, crash on what should have been a routine approach into Miami for the pilots. That was the question posed to investigators looking into the crash of Eastern Air Lines Flight 401. The aircraft in question was brand new, introduced to the airline market that same year. For 1972, the technology on board was well ahead of its time. The answers surrounding the cause of the disaster were found not to be with the plane. So what did investigators find when they opened up the plane’s black box. What caused this deadly crash in the Florida Everglades?
