No, that is ridiculous. You mess up in a plane, you go doun. You mess up in a car, 7 people go down. You mess up in a plane, you have 3,000 feet to catch yourself You mess up in a car well... Your engine fails in a plane, you glide to earth. Your engine fails on earth you crash. Anybody can get a licence, but a pilot's licence takes hours of flight time. In a car, there is no control tower...
I think this thread is whether it is more dangerous as a method of transport. If you could apply any situation to said behicle you could just as easily say a snatch landrover out on patrol in Helmland province is more dangerous than going to Malaga on Easyjet.
Well alot of people die if a plane hits the ground hard and blows up but for more poeple die in car crashes more then a plane hard to say I think the car crashes are a little more deadly but how big was the car crash but over all I think the car is more deadly than the plane.
thats going to get you in trouble... but not only is it proven that planes are safer i would like to know how many people have been in a plane crash to car crash ratio.. i only know of famous people being killed or hurt in a plane crash not a person i personally know
given that information.... where did you get that? and now the question is obviously a statistical standpoint on injuries and claims.... every single plane crash is recorded and not all car and do i dare say motorcycle crashes are.... good point unlim but i find your numbers to be a little hard to swallow
ultimatetitan... I think you messed up somewhere with your math. There is not a 1/4 chance that there will be a fatality when you fly in an airplane! If those were the odds of ending up dead, then it would have been illegal to fly a long time ago!
