Reviews
Every former Eastern Airlines employee MUST read Final Destination: Disaster- What Really Happened To Eastern Airlines by George Jehn.  Several books have been written about why Eastern went down, but none told as plausibly convincing as Jehn's recent published book.  You'll be right in the negotiations behind closed doors with the union representatives and management.  You'll read accounts of what really happened that's never been told.  You'll discover that there was more to the destruction of this once great airline than was told the employees.  Was this a cover-up for what was really happening on a larger scale that involved the United States Government? A well-researched book by its author.    A page-turner and compelling read about those responsible in pulling the "shut-down handle" of this trail-blazing pioneering airline. Captain Neal Holland, Retired Eastern Airlines & Host of the EAL Radio Show.    
Synopsis
Final Destination: Disaster informs the public, for the very first time, what actually precipitated the controversial sale of Eastern Air Lines, at one time the second largest airline in the free world, to Frank Lorenzo's Texas Air Corporation, which led to its certain demise. It is written from an eighteen-year veteran Eastern pilot insider's perspective, as the author was intimately involved in many aspects of the tumultuous events that culminated in the sale., Final Destination: Disaster is a book that will open the eyes of many about the inner working of those that are running the show at the very top level of any corporation. Former Astronaut Frank Borman was the CEO at Eastern Airlines when the demise was destined to happen. You have greed at the center ruling the decisions that are made with or without the consensus of the Union. You also have implications that point right up to the Reagan administration that intertwines with the Iran-Contra affair. This journey will take you to how the crash of Eastern Airline Flight 980 lead to the downward spiral that needed to be kept out of the public eye. All of this plus more are in the pages of this unbelievable read.
