How safe is flight by plane?
The aircraft is considered as the safest means of traffic. Right. From the statistical point of view, the victim's ratio is 0.23 percent for one million flights. Ten facts about air transport.
2014 was the year with the most accidents in air transport history. A total of 970 people died of plane crashes.
The three most disaster casualties were linked to a single-carrier flight: Malaysia Airlines.
About 3.3 billion passengers were transported to 2014 worldwide, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) said. This corresponds to an increase of 170 million tickets.
Most of the civilian air transport victims over Germany in the last 40 years were recorded in 2002. 118 people lost their lives.
The lowest number of victims in aircraft crashes over Germany was in 2004 with only 23 casualties.
The largest European air catastrophe occurred on March 27, 1977 - on the ground. At Tenerife Airport (Spain), a KLM airline plane crashed on a Pan-Am airliner that was on the runway. 583 victims.
As one of the most tragic air catastrophes considered Malaysia Airlines' MH17 flight. In the flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, the plane is believed to be hit by a rocket on the area of fighting in eastern Ukraine. 298 killed, among them many children.
Larger airline lines are rarely involved in deadly accidents. A higher accident rate has smaller airline companies with smaller jets. In addition, these societies are most of the time originated in countries outside Europe and America.
The air transport market grows unceasingly. For 20 years - this is the IATA estimate - every year it is estimated that about 7.3 billion people will fly on airplanes every year. This is double the number of passengers in 2014.
Statistically speaking "If a man traveled once a day on a plane, he would have to wait 14,000 years until he was involved in an accident" (IATA). / DW /

The problem is that the accident rate is much greater than it should be. These GE engine failures could have easily been avoided if it was not for capitalism's acceptance of deaths for greater profits for The Few. We should be crack detection testing these engines at least four times more than we are.
