About this listen

On August 12, 1985, more than 500 passengers boarded Japan Air Lines Flight 123 for a short flight between Tokyo and Osaka. 12 minutes into the flight, passengers found themselves fearing for their lives as the flight crew fought desperately to save a plane that was suddenly uncontrollable. In this week's episode of Take to the Sky: the Air Disaster Podcast-- our final episode outside of Patreon-- Stephanie shares the story of the deadliest single-aircraft accident in aviation history and the people who are part of a legacy that changed what safe flight means across the world.

It's official: this is our last episode! If you're still looking for new episodes, you'll find us exclusively on Patreon sharing a new episode and layover episode each month. Thank you for spending the last three years- and 150 Thursdays- with us!
