A fresh assessment of five of the most compelling unresolved aviation mysteries. What does a lesser-known member of the Kennedy clan have in common with a Sri-Lankan businessman? Or with Albert Loewenstein, one of the richest men in the world in 1928, who mysteriously fell from his plane into the English Channel?
Or with two aircraft that went missing and were never found, one disappearing over Scotland in 1975 and the other in 1953 over Lake Superior? In this gripping new book, Keith McCloskey, who has previously written about the Dyatlov Incident among others, turns his attention to reassessing these five unresolved aviation mysteries, all of which occurred over water, none of them ever resolved. These are mysterious stories where conspiracy theories abound, whether of sabotage, murder, and even UFO involvement. AUTHOR: Keith McCloskey was born in Dublin and grew up in Africa.
