On a pitch black night miles above the Indian ocean, a fire rages on board a fully loaded Boeing 747. 140 terrified passengers rush to the front of the cabin in a desperate bid to escape the suffocating smoke. The pilots put the aircraft into a terrifying dive, desperately fighting to get their aircraft on the ground. Will they be able to make it to a small island in the middle of the ocean, or will the flames consume their chances? This is the horrifying story of South African Airways flight 295. And it’s a story with a puzzling twist.
