Operation Crash-Dive is unusual in that it features two stories in one episode, yet both parts are equally as engaging. The first half is quite grim, in which the Fireflashes mysteriously disappear and a test crew crashes into the sea, forcing International Rescue to save the day. The rescue is quite eerie and very tense. The second half involves the team investigating the cause themselves, and this manages to be just as entertaining. The final scenes where Gordon and the saboteur face off is really nail biting. An enjoyable episode and a worthy sequel to Trapped in the Sky.
