On November 28, 1979, an Air New Zealand DC10 took off from Auckland Airport on a sightseeing trip to Antarctica. It never returned. What do the families remember of that fateful day?

257 people were dead. Whose fault was it? investigators sift through the evidence and come to a shocking conclusion.

"It's a woeful story, isn't it?" With the pilots' reputations in tatters, a second investigation unearths appalling mistakes and a sensational new theory for what caused the crash.

'An orchestrated litany of lies'. Justice Peter Mahon's words would prove the making of him and the ruin.

In 1981, New Zealand was changing. The Baby Boomers had come of age and the Springbok tour was about to tear the country apart. When the Mahon Report landed right in the middle of this, the country was ready for its first big conspiracy.

40 years later, there is still no consensus on what happened. Why has New Zealand been so unable to deal with this disaster?
