Helderberg Death Flight SA 295 traces the history of the flight, the search and rescue operation and the recovery efforts. Known as Operation Resolve, the deep sea expedition to photograph and retrieve vital clues from the Helderbergs grave 4400 metres underwater has been internationally acclaimed never before had a retrieval operation been attempted at such depth.
The book also follows the proceedings of the Board of Inquiry in which SAA, South Africas Department of Transport Affairs, Boeing as a manufacturer, the American National Transport Safety Board and Federal Aviation Administration all had issues to defend or criticize.
In addition, the book contains previously unpublished photographs of the underwater tomb of the Helderberg.
