When West Caribbean Airways Flight 708 suddenly disappears from radar on August 16, 2005, no one can imagine why an advanced MD-82 aircraft could simply fall out of the sky and crash. And when investigators learn of the pilots’ distress call claiming both engines had flamed out, that only deepens the mystery.
