Wind shear accidents are reviewed, and the utility of flight data recorders (FDR) in investigating them is discussed. The Dec. 17, 1973, Iberia Air Lines, DC-10-30 crash at Boston, Massachusetts, Became the first U.S. accidetn where wind shear could be positively identified as a cause of a large airplane accident. The 96-parameter digital flight data recorder provided investigators their first real glimpse at the windshear phenomenon. Since then there have been at least 18 accidents in the U.S. involving windshear, culminating with the August 1985 Delta L-1011 accident at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. It is suggested that data on wind shear accidents is one of the major contributions of FDR to aviation safety.
