About this episode

In 1956 air travel was quite different from today: flying was a luxurious, exclusive and elegant pursuit. And, at the same time, air traffic control was a very basic science, relying on radio calls and slips of paper. This state of affairs would lead to one of the worst mid-air collisions in history in June of 1956... Fascinating Horror covers the true stories behind some of history's greatest disasters.
