Take to the Sky Episode 068: United Flight 232 Part 1

When the crew of United Airlines Flight 232 boarded their aircraft on July 19, 1989, they had no idea they were just a few hours away from the greatest challenge they would ever face. In the skies above Iowa, a terrifying noise and a shuddering aircraft would start one of aviation history's most memorable tales, and the outcome changed lives and flight safety for all of us. In the first of this two-part episode, Stephanie shares what happened before, during, and after the disaster as well as why planes are safer because of what we learned.
