TS that Make Flying Ultra-Safe

rlines do not teach pilots to fly. All pilots have their commercial flying license before they are hired by an airline. They are at le ars of age, probably have a college education (most likely an advanced degree), in excellent health, perfect 20/20 vision, and accu re than 3,000 hours of flight time. ots are professionals. Pilots strive to give you (the passenger) the smoothest flight possible with little or no turbulence because w they know they are doing a good job. mmercial pilots are boring people. Before Airlines hire a pilot, the pilot must take rigorous psychological tests to ensure he/sh nservative person who is detailed oriented and takes little or no risks in life. Nice people, but boring :) ots often go a full career without ever experiencing an engine failure. rplanes can fly safely to their destination if one engine fails. If flying on a two engine plane, one engine went out, the aircraft h just one. In three engine planes, they could fly with just two. In four engine planes, they could fly with three. all engines were to stop at cruising height (35,000 feet) an aircraft can glide for 30 minutes before it lands on the ground. lity to glide 120 miles because all the controls work as if the engines were still going. flying bird can stop a jet engine. During the testing phase of jet engines, testers throw whole chickens through the jet engines y maintain full functionality. engines cost an average of $11,000,000. rplanes are built on the highest safety bidders. NASA Astronauts fly to space on a spacecraft that is built with equipment from west price bidders, pilots and passengers fly on aircrafts that are built with equipment from the bidders with the highest level of s and new plane every 4 or 5 years. Because of rigorous maintenance of aircrafts, a typical American commercial aircraft will be mpletely overhauled every 4 or 5 years through repairs and maintenance.

ck up, back up, back up. Every commercial airplane system is built with a primary, auxiliary, back-up, and emergency system tems) to ensure the safety of passengers. ost planes can land in 0/0 visibility (heavy fog) because a) most runways are equipped with an electronic glide slope b) pilots a ned to do so c) planes are equipped with low-visibility landing equipment. is safe because of modern deicing practices a) new warm water and glycol deicing fluid used as of 1993 b) post-deicing, plan ated with fluid to keep ice from forming c) the time between deicing and takeoff has been reduced. r modern electronics and computers make 0/0 (fog, etc.) visibility landings possible. ound proximity warning system (GPWS) is aboard every commercial airplane. If the plane is coming dangerously close to the emale voice states Pull up, pull and warns the pilot. a back up to air traffic control system, every commercial airplane has traffic and collision avoidance system (TCAS) to monit oid airplanes in the vicinity of the aircraft. eather radar is abroad every commercial airplane, and the pilots are trained on how to interpret the radar, so they can avoid nderstorms and other potentially dangerous weather conditions. ghtning may strike an aircraft, but because the aircraft is not connected to the ground, thelightning simply passes through the craft leaving the passengers and aircraft completely safe. ere is no such thing as an air pocket. An air pocket is a figment of the reporters mind. The term air pocket was coined orld War I by a journalist trying to describe air turbulence. There is no such thing. rcrafts can survive the strongest air turbulence, even that of thunderstorms. Check out Hurricane Hunters, they chase an ough hurricanes, and the aircraft stays completely intact. rcrafts can fly through thunderstorms, but never do. Commercial aircrafts are designed to fly right through thunderstorms, of s never happens because it is illegal for the pilots to do, so instead they fly as far around them as possible and are only allowed to miles from the core of the storm. ough fuel. Aircrafts legally must have enough fuel on board to go to their destination, make a missed approach to land, fly to the tant alternate landing, hold for 30 minutes and land with 10% of their en route fuel still in their tanks. mmercial aircrafts below 29,000 feet are required to be spaced 1,000 feet apart vertically and 3 to 20 miles apart horizontall mmercial aircrafts above 29,000 feet are required to be spaced 2,000 feet apart vertically and 10 or more miles apart horizon near miss is categorized as aircrafts which come within 1000 feet of each other. Are planes 900 feet apart in danger of collid stbound flight courses are on odd altitudes and westbound flights are on even altitudes. For example, if a westbound flight 26,000 feet, and an eastbound flight would be flying at 25,000 feet to maintain the minimal distance of 1,000 feet. luggage for US domestic and international flights are x-rayed. Most international airports also perform a full search of your most every commercial airline airport in America is equipped with the latest CAT (x-ray) scanner and sophisticated image proce tware to automatically screen checked baggage for explosives. an x-rayed item is suspicious the security attendant quickly swipes a cloth over the device and places the cloth on the sniffer. e chemical sniffer analyzes the cloth for any trace residue of the types of chemicals used to make bombs. t a month after the 9/11 attacks, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) was formed to as part of the Department o meland Security to prevent attacks on airports or aircraft. ost commercial airline airports have doubled and tripled their security measures preventing people to enter their premises with be ces and security patrols. st 9/11, the airline pilots are locked into the cockpit and cannot open the door for anyone. cording to the NY Times, of the 760 million passengers who flew on commercial airlines from the United States in all of 2006, 7 llion passengers flew and lived with a zero fatality rate.

First Time Flyer Actually Enjoys Flight

w before, so I wasnt sure what to expect, only one thing was for certain I did NOT want to fly!

ssion with JP, I felt different about flying, and when it was time to take off, I actually got excited about the rush of going 300 MPH into the sky

, after the take-off I was right to sleep calm like a baby for 80% of the flight.
