Not only is it not convincing, it's patently WRONG - for example, the author refers to Alaskan Flight 536 as being a 737 when in reality, the decompression at 26.000 feet happened to an MD-83; the issue with a 737 was flight 808 and after it hit the jetway / baggage handling equipment, it was removed from service pending an inspection, it did NOT suffer an explosive decompression.....
Based on such a shoddy level of investigative journalism, the rest of the book is most likely going to be a story straight from Cloud Cuckoo land....
