What a Honey of a story.
Every time I read a Nevil Shute story, I wonder why no one writes stories like this any more.
Theodore Honey is metallurgical engineer on the cutting edge of studies of metal fatigue and stress in airplanes and in particular of a particular airplane design that has just come on line. The wings fall of the plane after so many hours of flying. Honey, really the wrong man for the job, is sent off to the wilds of Canada to find and examine the plane that just went down. When it turns out that the plane taking him to Canada is one should have been grounded, all hell breaks loose.
