No Man’s Land: the untold story of
automation and QF72
by Kevin Sullivan
A gripping account of how a major air disaster was averted,
by the captain and former Top Gun pilot
Instinctively, I release my pressure on the sidestick. Out of
my subconscious, a survival technique from a previous life
emerges: Neutralise! I’m not in control so I must neutralise
controls. I never imagined I’d use this part of my military
experience in a commercial airliner ... On routine flight
QF72 from Singapore to Perth on 7 October 2008, the
primary flight computers went rogue, causing the plane to
pitch down, nose first, towards the Indian Ocean - twice.
The Airbus A330 carrying 315 passengers and crew was
out of control, with violent negative G forces propelling
anyone and anything untethered through the cabin roof.
In No Man’s Land, the captain of the flight tells the full story for the first time. It’s a
gripping, blow-by-blow account of how, along with his co-pilots, Sullivan relied on his
elite military training to land the gravely malfunctioning plane and narrowly avert what
could have been a horrific air disaster.
