Is Flying Safe
THE CHANCES OF DYING ON A PLANE IS EXTREMELY LOW. THERE IS A 1 IN A 11 MILLION CHANCE OF DYING ON A PLANE CRASHED, WHILE THERE IS A 1 IN 5 THOUSAND CHANCE OF DYING IN A CAR OR TRAFFIC ACCIDENT. PLANES ARE 19 TIMES SAFER THAN A CAR. 3,287 PEOPLE DIE EVERYDAY IN A CAR ACCIDENT. ON THE OTHER HAND, 2 PEOPLE DIE EVERY DAY IN A PLANE CRASH. COMMERCIAL PLANES DON’T NEED BOTH ENGINES TO FLY. THEY CAN FLY SAFELY WITH ONE AND CAN LAND WITHOUT ANY ENGINES.
THERE ARE ALSO MANY INSTRUMENTS ON THE PLANE TO DECREASE THE CHANCES OF DYING ON A PLANE. SUCH AS THE AIRSPEED INDICATOR. THE AIRSPEED INDICATOR, DISPLAYS HOW FAST/SPEED OF THE AIRPLANE. ANOTHER VERY HELPFUL PLANE INSTRUMENT IS THE RADAR. THE RADAR USES RADIO WAVES TO DETECT ANY ITEMS IN FRONT OF THEM OR NEAR SUCH AS ANOTHER AIRPLANE. KNOWING THIS CAN ALLOW QUICK THINKING AND REACTING AND PREVENTING A CRASH.
ALSO, PLANES HAVE VERY GOOD SECURITY. EVER SINCE 9/11, AIRPORT CHANGED THEIR SECURITY. FOR EXAMPLE, ID REQUIREMENTS. THE SECURITY WILL CHECK YOUR ID AND THE NAME TO CHECK IF IT MATCHES THE TICKET. COCKPIT DOORS ARE NOW REINFORCED AND LOCKED DURING FLIGHTS. THIS DECREASES THE CHANCE OF BEING HIJACKED A LOT. THERE ARE MORE SUCH AS, ENHANCED PAT DOWNS, CHECKING BAGS, ETC. THERE ARE ALSO X-RAYS. KVP IS THE AMOUNT OF PENETRATION THE X-RAY CAN MAKE. X-RAYS CAN HAVE VERY HIGH KVP RANGING FROM FROM 140 - 160 KVP.
IN CASE OF A CRASH, THE EMERGENCY SLIDES WILL INFLATE AND ACT AS RAFTS, OR JUST A SLIDE TO GET TO THE GROUND. ALL SLIDES ARE REGULATED TO INFLATE IN LESS THAN 3 SECONDS. THIS WAY, ALL PASSENGERS ARE ENTITLED TO SAFETY. THE SLIDES ARE ALSO MADE OF VERY STRONG RUBBER AS TO NOT BREAK ON ROCKY SURFACE..
