White Silence

Thought for a few days about posting this, but this story telling is just too good to not share on this forum.

Have been fascinated for many years about the saga and tragedy from so many angles...politics, law, power imbalance, NZ History, heartbreak and the heroes in charge of the recovery. The Mulgrew/ Hillary angle...incredible.

It’s emotional listening, but so intriguing. The personal inroads into Mahon’s makeup in EP4 was surprising.

40 years.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I've downloaded the first episode and will see where I go.

For those who didn't recognise the name / follow the link, it's a Radio NZ podcast about the Air New Zealand Erebus tragedy in 1979.

They had an excellent doco about it on TVNZ a few years ago, “operation overdue” I think it was called. Not sure if it is still available on demand anywhere
