Books like The airmen who would not die by John Grant Fuller
John Grant Fuller’s study provides a detailed account of the R101 airship’s fatal crash on 5 October 1930 during its maiden voyage to India, and the subsequent investigations. The analysis focuses on the medium Eileen Garret, who, two days after the disaster, claimed psychic communication with the lost Lt. H. C. Irwin. According to Garret, Irwin revealed technical information about the accident that was not publicly known, and the transcripts of their séances have been described by Michael Prescott as compelling evidence of communication with the dead.
