Cliff Taylor managed to land the burning plane and called for an emergency evacuation. Confusion and chaos followed, leading to tragic deaths and heroic acts by the crew. Hear from Junior First Officer John Hutchinson and two child survivors who escaped the inferno and uncover how the tragedy of BOAC 712 led to advances in fire and evacuation safety that we take for granted today.
