Since OMNI is generally for topics other than travel, miles and points, we're going to move this thread to TravelBuzz.
But we'll leave a permanent re-direct here too so that it reaches readers of both forums.
Please follow at it's new home.
Thanks.

I watched both episodes (back to back). I did enjoy the programs. I was only slightly disappointed that the aircraft shown in the CGI demos weren't accurate for the type of plane involved with the crash. An L-1011 is very different visually than a twin. Since they were doing CGI it wouldn't have been much extra work to make it look right.
Nice facts though and I will watch for more episodes!
