| Summary |
July 2002, a Russian passenger plane collided with an air freighter 11 kilometres above Lake Constance between Germany and Switzerland. 71 people were killed. The air traffic controller who was alone on duty that night was assigned full responsibility for the disaster in newspapers and television reports all over the world. 18 months after the accident he was murdered outside his house in Switzerland. A Russian man who had lost his wife and his two daughters in the crash is now awaiting trial for the murder. This programme reconstructs the evening of the disaster. It examines minute by minute what actually happened in the control tower and on board the two planes. It reviews the errors made and suggests that, in fact, the flight controller was completely blameless |
