Airframe / Michale Crichton / 351 pages / USA Today Bestseller

The summary on the library website is a bit misleading.  No midair collision happens in this book.  Rather a single plane experiences violent midair turbulence resulting in death and injury.  An investigation is launched into the  safety of the aircraft and its record.  Based on real events, Airframe is a suspense-filled tale of the workings of the aircraft industry, and human error and misdirection.
