The show offers an educational look at the causes of aircraft disasters.
Graphic computer-generated images, re-enactments, and dummies in simulators are used to re-create aircraft crashes, collisions, and emergency landings. Video footage and photos are also used when they're available. While there's never any blood or close-up shots of actual victims, they do show real corpses covered by sheets. One scene showed an actor carrying the limp body of a girl, replaying the scene of a father finding his daughter's dead body after a plane crash.
Cursing is rare, and the occasional use of "f--k" is bleeped.
