On major airlines, pretty safe.
On 3rd world shithole airlines...you're fucked.
Evan Campbell
Very safe.
Jaxson Edwards
getting rapped
then being boiled
then you get kidnapped
you have 1 in 2 million chance of crashing too
Luke Myers
safer than driving a car
Gabriel Johnson
Aerospace engineer here,
Planes are safu, engineers are not. Thats why i don't fly with any airline that is maintained outside of the western world.
Joshua Cook
Can you give us a list of companies that do this shit?
Aaron Anderson
Luis Campbell
that's a retarded comparison, since it depends entirely on where you drive the car, and how good the car is (grip, handling, brakes etc), how skilled you re, if you're sober or intoxicated, many factors.
Jose Myers
Don't do it user
Josiah Rogers
its completely random.
>muh maintenance
this shit won't safe you if the pilots fuck up for some reason.

Always safe when Denzel is flying
Brandon Roberts
it very safe do fly friend
Josiah Morris
Literally any airline that is maintained in africa, middle east (except emirates, their workers are mainly expats anyway), east asia (apart from singapore airlines, again their engineers are expats). I know of a certain middle east company that buys aircraft parts from china to save costs and even manufactures their own parts... that might not sound like a big deal but some hydraulic systems operate at 3000 PSI, the slightest defect and a part will fail. Stick to caucasian maintained planes and you won't go far wrong.
Zachary Campbell
is JAL no good? My plan was to use JAL and Singapore Airlines while I travel around asia.
Lucas Anderson
>Stick to caucasian maintained planes and you won't go far wrong.
>oops overworked pilot (which can be a nigger or a woman nowadays) accidentally forgot to push a button and the thing crashes head on into a mountain
Jose Sanchez
Its even quite hard for a pilot to crash a plane. Although most crashes are caused by pilot error, think of how many millions of flights there are a year and how many crashes there are.
And in my experience, of all the black and arab people I've worked with, their attitude and work ethic is... relaxed to say the least.
I would trust the Japanese, most people may not realise but their engineering is some of the best in the world and they have high standards
Christian Phillips
depends on what and where you fly as well you brainlet but OP wasn't being specific
Bentley Wilson
>3rd world shithole airlines...you're fucked
Even on a 3rd world country you're more likely to die on a traffic accident on the way to the airport than on the flight itself.
Hunter Perez
dont fly in the daytime
David Bell
much safer per mile than driving, though more fatalities per hour compared to driving.
Christopher Hughes
Maybe it's just autism, but I've read that the first 30 seconds after take off and the last 30 seconds before landing are the most dangerous.
So, I just count to 30 when I'm taking off and when I get to 30, I feel safer.
Ryan Rogers
Literally safer than driving.
But if something goes wrong I imagine it's a much more horrible death.
Jace Campbell
This is sort of true.
Landing and taking off are the most dangerous parts, but they both usually last more than 30 seconds
Evan Reyes
take off is the worst.
Lucas Ortiz
If you fly with any major US carrier or Western European one you'll be fine. Training and maintenance starts to get shaky when you get into Eastern Europe, Africa and Asia. Oh, and the Middle East (the rich arabs at least) are pretty solid. China sucks too, but the Japs are good. As far as the airplanes go if you're flying a Boeing, Airbus, or any other western made heavy you'll be fine. All else are shitty.
You have no concept of US airline culture. Its very much a good ol boys club and you can literally count on one hand all the female and POC pilots. You're thinking of the ATC scandal when they lowered their standards. Pilots don't have that problem because its still mostly a meritocracy.
> inb4 muh US ATC is so bad the planes will crash
Ya it just reverts to a pilot controlled field via UNICOM you dumb fuck worst case scenario, everyone will be fine. I fly my plane in and out of a field without a tower all the time.
Kind of, they are critical times.
> t.pilot chad
Isaiah King
Any opinions on the planes manufactured by Embraer?
Colton Adams
Safe because whites make the aircraft and it's beyond the iq of non-whites.
China still hasn't made their own airliner independently
Adam Evans
Ive flown with Air Koryo over 20 times and have felt safe as fuck not sure who they are getting to service their planes i assume chinese, but it was voted the worst airline in the world which i find hard to believe.
Robert Richardson
They're fine.
Tyler Robinson
>nigger groud crew accidentally left tape over the pitot tube so it doesnt work ooopsi
>crash into the ground and die
Adam Morales
begin in a box in the sky? Much safe than being in a box with wheel crowded by other boxes with wheels driving bumper to bumper at 75 mph
Christopher Lee
First time flying and those were definitely the most terrifying
Jacob Howard
I’m OP if you couldn’t figure it out.
Cameron Cooper
Once the plane hits v2 speed i believe on the takeoff it has to take off fucked or not
Grayson Scott
Or is it v1?
Thomas Fisher
watch this OP it will help, it cured my fears

Gavin Brown
> implying that mechanics unions aren't the same way
In a way you're kind of right though, but that was mostly an Airbus problem until those niggers at boeing disclosed that there was undefined procedural behavior with the 737. I will also concede that a lot of pilots at the majors never touch little airplanes again once they get there (or even the regionals for that matter) so they lose that stick and rudder flying skills.
> sad
David Russell
> v1 rotate
Logan Sullivan
safer than crypto
Julian Cook
Emirates first class= god tier
Jayden Cook
I only fly with with Cathay Pacific. Great meals and flight prices and gorgeous asians working aboard. Always a good time.
Cooper Foster
why are off-topic threads always the best threads on Jow Forums? that tells us something
Luke Peterson
i only fly business class :)
