Take to the Sky Episode 137: The Überlingen Midair Disaster - a podcast by Shelly Price and Stephanie Hubka

No one could have imagined how a field trip of a lifetime for 54 children could turn into a nightmare within just minutes. But when two planes collided on July 2, 2002, in the night sky over the small town of Überlingen, Germany, the disaster forever changed the families of the lost children and led to the redesign of an important onboard safety system. Join Shelly in this episode of Take to the Sky: The Air Disaster Podcast as she recounts one of the most tragic air disaster stories in aviation history – and how one father’s grief led to an unspeakable act of retribution.
