Seems like I keep seeing more and more articles about planes having issues. I really hope its just because I have an interest in it. Commercial aircraft are immensely safe and very robust. https://medium.com/@aviatechchannel/is-i...f2a1b2e080 “…Is it accurate to assert that flying is safer than driving? Statistically speaking, flying is considerably safer than driving. Let’s break down the data: Statistics: According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), there was only one accident resulting in one or more fatalities for every 7.7 million flights in 2021. This translates to a fatality risk of 0.23 per billion passenger-kilometers. In contrast, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that the likelihood of dying in a car crash in the US is approximately 1 in 107. Comparison: This implies that, on average, you would need to fly every day for over 10,000 years to be involved in a fatal plane crash. The risk of dying in a car crash is roughly 200,000 times higher than dying in a plane crash…” |
