Greg Feith was the keynote speaker at the 2025 National Business Aviation Association Maintenance Conference held from April 29 to May 1 and we take you there!

This special edition of the Flight Safety Detectives features Greg as he discusses a range of topics, focusing on the central role that safety plays throughout aviation.

Greg discusses recent incidents. He offers in-depth details of two accidents that he investigated to illustrate how relatively minor maintenance oversights led to the loss of the aircraft and the deaths of everyone on board.

A crash of a DC-8 cargo aircraft in Rancho Cordova, California that he investigated while at the NTSB was found to be maintenance related. A second crash in Nebraska involved a Beechcraft Baron that he investigated as a consultant, where he proved that the accident happened because of maintenance errors and not pilot errors.
