In the 1990s a fatal mechanical fault was lurking within the tail of the world's most popular passenger plane. The Boeing 737 suffered two fatal accidents as the result of a design flaw that had been kept hidden for so long. What was it? Why wasn't it fixed? This episode of Disaster Breakdown takes a look into the accidents of United Airlines Flight 585 and USAir Flight 427 and the background of the investigation.
