On October 8th, 2001, the worst air accident in Italian history occurred at Milan’s Linate airport in the North of Italy. What makes this crash particularly galling is how predictable and preventable it was. This accident was not a result of a series of unfortunate coincidences, or of a chance failure. Rather, it was the logical culmination of years of complacency, and a reckless attitude to safety by the Italian airport authorities.

This episode investigates the causes behind this entirely predictable and preventable crash.

Publicly available sources are used to piece together what took place. For a full account of the incident, read the Final Report, published in 2004.
