À propos de ce contenu audio

Every accident leaves two stories. The first is the one that makes the headlines — the wreckage, the inquiry, the findings. The second is quieter, more uncomfortable, and far more important: the story of what the human mind was doing in the moments before everything went wrong.

Black Box Britain is a six-part series examining significant UK aviation occurrences through the lens of human factors. Each episode draws on AAIB reports — the gold standard of accident investigation — to ask not just what happened, but why trained, experienced, professional human beings made the decisions they did.

Presented by Capt. Amit Singh FRAeS — Boeing 777 captain with 18,000+ flight hours, Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society, Cambridge University Press author, and founder of Safety Matters Foundation, India's independent aviation safety NGO.

This is not a show about crashes. It is a show about the human mind under pressure. The lessons belong to everyone.

    Kegworth: The Wrong Engine
    Apr 16 2026
    On the evening of 8 January 1989, British Midland Flight 092 fell out of the sky onto the M1 motorway near Kegworth, Leicestershire. Forty-seven people died. The crew had shut down the wrong engine. In this episode, Capt. Amit Singh FRAeS examines the cognitive mechanism that made a skilled, experienced flight crew certain of the wrong answer — and stay certain until it was too late. Premature cognitive closure, satisficing, and the authority gradient that silenced everyone who knew the truth.
