BLACK SWAN EVENT

Canadian Broadcasting (CBC) documentary on why aviation experts call the disappearance of Malaysian Flight 370 on March 8, 2014 a black swan event:


Black-Swan: (adjective): an event, which is extremely rare and unexpected but has very significant consequences.  Example from the Christian Science Monitor: “...September 11, 2001 is a classic example of a Black Swan. It was only a failure of imagination by most to never have contemplated beforehand the possibility of such a dreadful day.

MYSTERY OF THE MILLENNIUM—Two recent documentaries on YouTube—one British and one Canadian capsulize (as of May 2014) as good as any current media reportage on the unsolved mystery of a missing and presumed doomed Boeing 777 passenger jet.
