Marvelous. Going to VCR that, for sure. Although, I think it's been done before but in a series called 'Black Box' on Channel 4.

I saw it done on BBC once, but I can't remember the name of the series.

Was this the crash where the pilot switched of the wrong engine?

Whole bad sequence of events that caused that accident - should be an interesting programme.

Good to see that British Midland (aka Bmi) survived it all in the end - many others post accident have not.
