In his updated book, Tom Bower recounts his experience flying on Mohamed Fayed's helicopter shortly after the tragic deaths of Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed. Fayed aimed to question the official account of the incident that claimed the lives of the two. The flight occurred on September 2, 1997, just two days after the accident, highlighting Fayed’s urgency to alter the narrative surrounding the events that transpired at the Ritz Hotel. Bower's presence was sanctioned by Fayed, marking an insight into the businessman’s aggressive tactics in handling the aftermath of the crash.

On Tuesday, September 2, 1997, two days after Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed had died in a car crash in Paris, I was sitting in Mohamed Fayed's helicopter.
