Investigation is treated as problem in detection, calling for observation and deduction and scientific experiments to test tentative explanations; after discovery and retrieval of wreckage, latter is sent to Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough, for jig-saw reconstruction; principal methods for ascertaining cause of accident comprise study of fractures, scratches, marks and indentations, of clues found in damage to mechanical components; process of deduction from evidence, and experiments to simulate conditions of accident; it is shown how different lines of investigation may proceed simultaneously, and substantiate each other.
