Hosted by airline pilot and safety investigator Nicolaus Dmoch (M.Sc.), the Essence of Safety podcast takes deep dives into accidents to uncover the often overlooked underlying causes. In the first season, we are going to look at the accidents of a Ju-Air Junkers Ju-52 in the Swiss Alps, a deadly, inadvertent activation of an ejection seat that killed one of the pilots of the famous Red Arrows aerobatics team, and the accident of Rescue 116, an Irish helicopter that was lost during a search-and-rescue missue - and many more.
