Waiting for "Episode 2"...

A very interesting document, this movie deals with the accident that occurred to flight KAL007 in the 80's, during cold war between East & West.

If you like aeronautics and inquiries, you'll love this movie ! The explanations given for this crash have been gathered during year-long attempts to discover the truth, and since then, new elements have appeared (role of flight KAL013 that was flying behind 007, orthodromic theory, even JATO possibility etc.) This is why we are really looking forward to discovering the brand new version that is going to be released (I learned that on TV evening news with a man called "Gove" announcing that project for 2006)
